Traffic was up just over 20% at the Read an E-Book Week website and yes -- it crashed with just 4 hours left in the event!
Visitors came from 141 countries and spoke 76 languages. Last year the count was 136 countries and languages spoken was 74. I saw a large increase in visitors from Poland and that area of Europe. Rita Toews founder - Read an E-Book Week |

One heck of a week, Rita -- thanks so much. We saw about a fifty-fold increase in traffic over the period and our own site crashed a couple of times in the closing stages under the sheer weight. You and the team do a magnificent job. Many thanks for the opportunity for everyone to join in and for all the effective hard work. Very best wishes. Neil at BeWrite Books
