decorahnews.com readership sets all-time record in August

August is usually one of the slowest months of the year for news readership, with many people taking time off to go on vacation.

But when the President of the United States visits your town, the usual rules don't apply.  President Barack Obama's visit to Seed Savers Exchange boosted decorahnews.com readership to 113,123 visits in August--an all-time record.

Four news stories were read more than 3,000 times--and all of them concerned the president's visit (OK--one of them concerned a certain Secret Service agent).

Not only did people visit decorahnews.com over 113,000 times in August, but once on the website they read a total of 436,912 pages--also a monthly record.

For the last 12 months, decorahnews.com has been visited 1,110,783 times--an average of 92,565 times a month.
