The Year in Data 2011

So as I sit, waiting for a respectable time to start drinking, I thought I’d slice up some data that we collected over the past year.

NOTE: These numbers are not indiciative of the industry’s performance, just the part of it that we tracked… we are certain, despite our best efforts, that there are sins of omission… nothing personal.

Before I get into the stats, I’d like to take a moment to thank everyone who has done a search, sent in a correction, served on our editorial staff. This site has become a pretty valuable resource, and it’s been because of everyone involved — surfer, performer, editor, director… thank you for giving us something to jerk off to. It means a lot.

According to Google Analytics, we served 20.7 million unique visitors in 2011, and in that time we served those visitors over 249 million pages. That makes our head spin. To think this site started running off a DSL line in my attic…

Since Jan 1, 2011, our dedicated and tireless editorial staff has entered data on 9,384 titles.  Of those, 4,366 were from 2011.

UPDATE: The data was republished at 11:30 AM EST on 01 Jan 2012 to remove appearances in compilations from the tallies. The old data is available at the bottom of this article.
