8a is strengthening its position as global sport climbing website

Based on Similarweb statistics 8a has tremendously strengthened its position during 2016 with an increase in traffic of 39%. The most striking figures are however that the average 8a visitor stays over 15 minutes and that 84% come direct, instead of coming from Facebook, Google, etc. The average "Time on site" for our competitors are below 3 minutes and they get below 40% of their visitors "direct", which means that most of their traffic comes from Facebook and Google. 8a is also the only website which is spread evenly around the globe while all our competitors get some 50% of their traffic from their country of origin. To sweeten up the story, the first week of April has also started up with a new record when it comes to visits and unique visitors.
