It’s like this. We made a thread on Otto Warmbier for Twitter that got 100k views, which was already huge for us and led to some direct traffic.

Then, we made a thread on Yeonmi Park just a few days later that reached a whopping 450k people, and that led to our second best day on record in terms of visits (first day was 1.1k visits on march 1st for some reason).

After that, we already saw increased traffic by about 150%.

Shortly after, some libs found our pages and tweeted about them. I think it went from tankiejerk (the subreddit) to some EU weirdo we ratioed lol who didn’t like that we were truthful about the Dems and the Labour party. That led to some increased traffic too.

Then SDL (yes, that SDL) tweeted about us too and was literally the only person who couldn’t tell the difference between Conservapedia’s page on the UA-RU war and ours lol. That led, I think also with an r/tankiejerk thread, to our new second best day on record, almost reaching 1st place but falling just short.

Since then, along with a consistent posting schedule and call to actions on Twitter to redirect traffic to the website, we’ve seemingly durably doubled our daily traffic.

I estimate that since we went viral, we increased readership durably by 10% (total visitors - visitors that came from social media, averaged out over a week, then comparing growth between pre-viral and post-viral period)

And the best part is it doesn’t matter if they’re libs looking at ProleWiki for outrage farming! They’re still looking. They’re still visiting. Only 2% of visitors bounce from the website, meaning they leave without clicking on any other page.

Anyway comrades, ProleWiki is 100% volunteer work and user funded. If you want, you can either request an account or make a donation! We’re actually going to make our first purchase soon, you’ll be updated soon on that milestone 😉
