### Thanks to ALL of you, Steemit is growing fast!

https://steemitimages.com/0x0/https://s2.postimg.org/sad81bt2x/Steem_Big_Data.jpg

**We reached 39.4 mn visits in March !**

There is an important difference between total visitors to a site and unique ones. In this case the 39.4mn include the multiple times a person visited the website. 

Therefore, as a good Steemian you probably connect everyday which will make you count for a total of 30 visits.
Therefore, how many "unique users" does Steemit has?

This is a very important question that I will try to answer later on. According to the Beta Analysis from the website I use to compile these datas, it is around 17,26mn !

### I] Traffic

## Daily Steemit Traffic

**The number of Daily visits in October was at 600k+. In January, we experienced the best daily numbers at 1.5mn+; they decreased a little under 1.5mn in February.**
**Unfortunately the daily traffic on Steemit slowed down to c.1.25mn in March. Let’s hope it is just  a quick setback**
Another, explanation could be that people spend more time on apps (Steepshot, Dtube, eSteem…) which are not accounted in this analysis.

**Steemit website is ranked 1,109 worldwide vs 935 last month**
**Steemit is ranked 1,392 in the US**
Steemit kept on improving its ranking as it ranked 15,000+ last year.

### **Mobile Traffic is catching up fast as it represents 42.5% of the total**

This is useful to know how people use the Steem platform. Initiatives like eSteem (mobile app), Busy.org, SteepShot (Instagram), Zappl (Twitter like), utopian-io… will probably help the community to grow on mobile phones.

## Be Careful with the Number of Visits

Also, remember that if you connect from a different device (home/work computer, mobile phone, tablet) you will count as a "new visitor" on each of these devices.

So as an example, let's say you connected at home, at work and in the subway. You would represent 3 visits out of these 1mn+ Daily Visits.

### **II] Marketing Mix**

**Organic Search is once again improving and represents 51,7% of the incoming Traffic.
**Organic search is when people research on Google. As the number of quality bloggers on Steemit increase, our content has a higher probability of being listed in Google's Top results.**

### III] Steemit website metrics

### You feel a bit confused about these 3 metrics? Let me explain.
* Bounce Rate is the % of people that leave the Website after just navigating on a single Webpage. The lower, the Better
* Daily Pageviews per Visitor is the average number of pages a visitor opens. The Higher, the Better
* Daily Time on Site is the full time a visitor spend on the website before closing the internet Webpage. The Higher the Better

## My March assumptions
* Total visits to Steemit.com: 39,4mn
* Assumption of Total unique visitors in March: 10-14mn
* Total Daily visitors: 1.2-1.4mn
* Assumption of Total Daily Unique visitors: 750-850k

### This is a collective achievement and I would like to congratulate all of us!
