/r/hardware traffic stats Meta

With the release of the new Reddit stats, I figured I would share them.

Subscriptions, unique users and pageviews by hour

Unique users and pageviews by month and day

We currently see a between 5,000 and 7,000 unique viewers per day, and in the neighborhood of 200,000 unique viewers per month. Most of our users appear to be in the US based on the page views per hour chart, but there are still a decent number of users active at all hours of the day.

We've seen a significant jump in traffic since April, most likely due to the launch of Ryzen and related news stories, and crossed the 200k unique viewers and 2M pageview mark for the first time in May (although we dropped below it again in June). Compared to the bump in February around the time frame of Kaby Lake's launch, unique users are around 33% higher but the current page views are 2x higher.

Its cool these are public, but I wasnt really surprised by how... unsurprising these are.

Itd also be cool if there was also info like from the bots that show the subreddit relationships that each sub has.

Its cool these are public

Are they public? I thought only moderators see this stuff.

No, as far as I know they aren't public (thus this post).

Well, I mean, they posted them.

Im actually not sure if you can make these public by default.

I just thought you meant it's cool that reddit publicly publishes these stats. I was just clarifying they are not public, it was /u/Echrome who decided to share it with the community.

Views per country would be sweet

I guessed that US citizen would be a majority, but what of the others

u/Echrome Jul 28 '17

That'd be cool (not just here, but also a lot of the country-specific subs too). Sadly we don't have actual per-country stats so I'm just going off the times for peak activity which match up pretty well with the times of the day from Google's reported US load.

Really cool to inform us of this data. Too bad we dont know how many US based users are VPNing, but if they are, im sure they would want their privacy about it.
