October Statistics – WordPress.com

main wordpress logo 22 October Statistics   WordPress.com

It looks like WordPress released their monthly wrap-up for October yesterday, complete with an announcement of their first billion-impression month!   That is a hard number to wrap your head around if you really think about it, making it a great accomplishment.

You can visit their website here

Here are the October statistics for WordPress.com by Matt:

  • 323,786 blogs were created.
  • 343,832 new users joined.
  • 4,085,148 file uploads.
  • 1995.86 gigabytes of new files.
  • 531 terabytes of content transferred from our datacenters.
  • 8,862,195 comments.
  • 1,309,045 logins.
  • 1,088,583,200 page views on WordPress.com, and another 738,282,634 on self-hosted blogs (1,826,865,834 total across all WordPress blogs we track).
  • 1,418,933 active blogs and 16,599,550 active posts where active means they got a human visitor.
  • 1,179,018,712 words.

Bonus statistic:

* 53,290 PollDaddy polls added this month a 1250% increase from September!

It is good to see WordPress.com continues to grow and expand. I know many users out there that have changed to WordPress. I would be proud if I was the owner of WordPress, the stats show it all.

Not a problem Bogdan Radu.

Those stats show how popular Wordpress has become.

I checked out your site, nice cheats there. I see you are using wordpress as well, you need to upgrade to 2.6.3.

2.7 should be coming soon, watch out for it.
