It was ‘Guido’ [Fawkes -Ed) who propelled a series of Labour election posters
depicting Michael Howard as the Jewish stereotype Fagin into the
mainstream media, thereby transforming his site from an internet
backwater that received 60 hits a day into a prominent resource that
now receives around 150,000 hits a day.
150 k a day? A month maybe, but day?
Don’t these people have bleedin’ editors?

150,000 unique visitors for the month of May. Probably more now.
Tim quite right.
Have had a Slashdot/Instapundit/BBC freak 170,000 hits in a single day once, but 150,00 to 200,000 a month is about right depending on events.
20,000 a day last week…
that’s a lot
Notice how the media always wants to pin the popularity of a particular site on one event.
The thing that makes a blog successful, is good content regularly updated, not a freak incident that brought the blog to the attention of said journalist.
Notice also that in 2006, we still don’t know the difference between hits, page views and visitors.
I generally find that my number of unique visitors is about 70% of my page views…
