ComScore released their October Media Metrix numbers for October.
And look at little ol' us in there (bold added by me) ...
comScore Media Metrix Ranks Top 50 U.S. Web Properties for October 2008 - MarketWatch: "Retail -- apparel sites grew 13 percent to more than 67 million visitors as people searched for Halloween costumes, early holiday deals and the latest seasonal apparel in October. The category was led by BuyCostumes.com, which witnessed a 107-percent increase to 9.5 million visitors. Several other costume-related sites also experienced gains in October, including CostumeSuperCenter.com (up 110 percent to 2.6 million visitors) and Costumzee.com (up 161 percent to 2.1 million visitors). "
It is so rewarding to see years of hard work pay off like this, and it's humbling (and a little scary) to be listed alongside such big-name retailers, with comparable numbers.
I'm also pleased to say that our server infrastructure weathered the storm very well this year. There were a few hiccups, but nothing disastrous. The part of me who is kept up at night worrying about the servers running is a little glad that volume is just a few months out of the year.
Congrats to the team at MechMedia for making this happen!
