Folks:
Sometime on Wednesday, probably when I was in the operating room for eye surgery, BlackPast.org (www.blackpast.org)
crossed the one million mark in unique visitors for 2016. In fact, in
the four days since then, the website has seen another 84,000 visitors.
This
is the earliest point in the year that the website has reached that
level. In 2015 it reached one million visitors on March 6. In 2014 it
reached that level on July 26.
In
addition, we are getting a growing amount of international traffic.
According to Google, the following nations sent visitors to the website
just ten minutes ago in this order:
United States
Canada
South Africa
France
Indonesia
Netherlands
Nigeria
United Kingdom
Dominican Republic
Ethiopia
Guam
Italy
Jamaica
Kenya
Philippines
Poland
South Korea
Colombia
Sweden
BlackPast.org
continues to grow and you through your efforts have made that happen. I
am confident it will grow more rapidly as we strengthen our internal
organization, a process that has already begun with the addition of
Chieko Phillips as our first executive director and with the
extraordinary work of Jackson Fish Market in redesigning the website.
Ultimately that means we will serve millions more people around the
world with our rich and continuously growing content of African American
and global African history.
