Today we announced crossing 1B pageviews in a 30-day period. That’s an amazing milestone for us for sure. I have a graph on the wall of my office that Tara printed out after we released Lijit Search back in 2007.
As you can see we were quite excited when we passed 100K pageviews in a single day. I used to say that “pageviews are oxygen” for our business. Today we see about 40M pageviews in a single day and the numbers are accelerating. Although we are announcing 1B pageviews today we actually passed that milestone a few weeks back and the 30-day run rate number is now closer to 1.1B or 1.2B.
Our goal from the beginning was to develop a service that would help publishers make their site better by understanding their readers, creating better content through analytics, and finally, leveraging their unique audiences and data to better monetize their site.
Last year we released Lijit Ad Services for publishers. It started out similarly with a nascent number of ad calls but grew super fast because publishers who were already our partners were quick to adopt the service. Today Lijit serves about 613 ads every second onto one of the 15K sites in our network. Combined, about 90M people a month see a Lijit ad on one of our publisher sites.
I’m really looking forward to 2011. One thing that is always constant in the Lijit universe is that there is always more oxygen!
