The Atlantic Wire Boasts Strong Growth in First Year

The Atlantic Wire reported strong growth in its first year, reaching 1 million unique monthly users and seeing monthly advertising revenues for September up 248 percent versus September 2009.

Social-media sites such as Facebook and Digg have accounted for one-third to one-half of the site’s traffic referrals, and comScore data found only 3 percent duplication between The Atlantic Wire and The Atlantic.

Atlantic Digital editorial director Bob Cohn — subject of a mediabistro.com So What Do You Do Q&A earlier this month — said:

We’re thrilled that over the past year, The Atlantic Wire has become a must-read for anyone looking to engage with the day’s most important political, business, and cultural commentary.
