Baltimore Beatdown Draws Record January Traffic

With the Baltimore Ravens deep run in the playoffs, this site drew record traffic for not only a single day but for the month as well in terms of both individual visits and page views (looking around after logging onto the site). Baltimore Beatdown drew over 250,000 visits and 460,000 page views in January 2012.

It definitely would have been more had the Ravens won the AFC Championship Game instead of dropping in shocking fashion, 23-20 to the New England Patriots. However, the day of the game drew 23,000 visits and 42,000 page views alone and combined with the following day (20,000 visits / 36,000 page views), gave us a two-day total of 43,000 visits and almost 80,000 page views in just 48 hours!

Prior to January 2012, the best months in Baltimore Beatdown's four year history was August 2011, when the NFL Lockout ended and training Camps got underway (183,000 visits / 343,000 page views). While traffic will drop off during the off-season, we have the NFL Scouting Combine coming up later this month and the 2012 NFL Draft in April, with tons of news between now and then, including free agency and year-around NFL football news here on Baltimore Beatdown.

Thanks for a great month and looking forward to another great year!

A failed attempt by the Steeler Nation at crashing your site

Despite what you may think, us masterminds at behind the curtain don’t succeed at everything

A begrudging congratulations…

Hey, a visit is a visit is a visit

Be it from steelers fans (or trolls) or loyal yet disillusioned Texans fans (just kidding, sort of), the playoffs bring a ot more readers here than just Ravens fans as we get down to the final four, and should have been part of the final two (sniff sniff).

Had we made the SB, our numbers would have been disproportionately even higher, dare I say 300K visits and 500K page views?

Next year! Damn you Tom Brady!!!

Damn you Tom Brady!!!

That definitely isn’t the name I’d have chosen.

Water covers 2/3 of the Earth's surface. Ed Reed covers the rest.

State your case, back it up with facts and reasonable opinions ...

Agreed

It escapes me now, but I think it rhymes with “Flea Bevans”…

"A little learning is a dangerous thing; Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring."
"The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug."
"God's whiskers! Your face is as hideous as the demon's in my storybook!"
"I never expected to see the day when girls would get sunburned in the places they do today."
"It's big for a reason."

For Pittsburgh fans, that's Pope, Twain, Rostand, Rogers and Megamind
