We’ve had another year of strong growth for .com. The site has seen a 29% increase in unique users and 45% increase in page views for FY07 vs. FY06 monthly averages. We’ve had more dramatic growth in our video traffic – increases of 73% in the number of unique users viewing our video and a 91% increase in the number of videos viewed. Congratulations to all who work so hard on ABC News.com every day and to so many of you who have made your work available on the site.
As well as we’re doing, we can always do better. So, tonight ABCNews.com debuts a re-designed home page intended to make it easier to navigate. This is a further step in our ongoing effort to make our website work better for our users; we’ll be taking more steps in the coming weeks and months.
