Nice spike in Google trends!

According to alexa, bitcoin.org is currently ranked 3,878 on the 7 day average and 6,742 on the 1 month average.

Bitcoin Block Explorer also got a big spike in traffic starting on the 16^th. 2,599 unique non-bot IPs on the 15^th -> 7,832 unique non-bot IPs on the 16^th. BBE is now serving ~400,000 pages per day (mostly from bots and sites like BitcoinCharts).

a lot of the Block Explorer hits are probably our friendly local neighborhood alphabet soupers, trying to connect the dots.

newbies & etc. will not have that much interest.

You think they wouldn't just get all the data and search, sort and analyze offline?

well yeah - but there are hundreds (literally) of the soupers - and dozens of sub-soupers in each, all of whom perceive that they are competing with each other.

sure they download the data.  most likely on a regular schedule, every hour of every day.  thousands of downloads a day...

Easier to work directly on the block chain.

My favorite part of the Alexa info:

Relative to the overall population of internet users, [Bitcoin.org's] audience tends to be male; it also appeals more to childless, low-income users under the age of 35 who browse from home.

It apparently would serve us well if everybody got out of their parent's basement and browsed bitcoin.org from Starbucks with your girlfriend and your rich aunt.

Haha, if I was Alexa I would make that the default for every webpage until I knew different though. Wouldn't be surprised if that's what they do.

It looks like we got a long way to go still... But you know what they say, slow n steady...

How on earth are they supposed to know that just from an IP address?

From what I've gathered in the past, the statistics come from those who have the Alexa toolbar installed. Not exactly a solid representation but I'd guess in this circumstance it's close to being accurate.

"Not exactly a solid representation..."

uhh... yeah.  that is:  agreed.

i mean, how many of your average anarcho-libertarian types like to give information away for free by using things like Alexa/Google/Yahoo toolbars?

you can just bet i've got all three installed.  < /snark >

mmmph.

China has appeared in the listing recently, Bejing being the third city in the 30 days traffic:
