Visitor numbers

I get the visitor numbers from Google Analytics and saw an increase of 6.0% in visitor numbers and 5.7% in pageviews between March and April; this is a much slower rate of increase from previous months due in part from it being a 30 day month compared with a 31 day month and also Easter falling this month. The following table shows visitor numbers and pageviews for the six months from November 2008 to April 2009.

Month Visitors Pageviews PV Per Visitor
November 2008 50,566 58,986 1.16
December 2008 50,602 60,026 1.18
January 2009 61,168 75,243 1.23
February 2009 74,367 90,009 1.21
March 2009 88,737 108,698 1.22
April 2009 94,083 114,942 1.22
