That is pretty impressive. Most of the data has just been going up, and in comparison to other popular sites (in which numbers are going down) Giant Bomb is excelling. I find it kind of funny that the average time users spend on the site is 2.7 minutes, though.

Edit: Looks like Giant Bomb is getting a lot of its hits preceding from Google. I guess Giant Bomb shows up a lot when people search for games.

2.7 minutes is actually pretty high. You would be suprised how low the numbers for time on the site and pages per session can be, even for popular sites.

Yeah, that's factoring in visits to the site to just check the homepage and then closing the tab, I'd assume.

I think he was looking at the numbers as "amount of people that come to Giant Bomb from China by number" rather than "they are 102,000th in ranking for people visiting Giant Bomb".

Colt, what happened to your Hookt on Fonikz tapes that I bought you?

Giantbomb is not considered a hardcore Japanese gaming site, according to that info.

Apparently, Endurance Run Persona 4 isn't quite getting em. *shrug*

1,165 Sweden, now that is impressive.

Also what the hell in the Quantcast data ^50% had no college, and yet the majority of people are of college age. So unless 'No College' equates to 'is currently in college' as well, I say 'shame shame giantbomb, shame shame'

Use Quantcast.


1. Alexa sucks

2. Giant Bomb subscribes to Quantcast (so data is directly measured)

3. Alexa sucks
