Comparison Table
Growth continues at geosynthetica.net. 2009 posted over 16 Million
page views by visitors of geosynthetica.net , the average visit duration for the
year is 4.51 minutes (Q1 averaged 1.58 minutes, Q2 averaged 4.25 minutes, Q3
averaged 5.34 and current Q4 average is 6.09 minutes).
With this growth, we have realized new user demands. Users have requested
concise material specification data, so we've created geosindex.com - a stand
alone geosynthetics website which indexes materials based on their properties.
- Users requested concise material specification data, so we created geosindex.com - a stand alone geosynthetics website which indexes materials based on their properties.
- Users wanted information grouped on their design and project needs, so we redesigned geosynthetica to reflect those needs--significantly increasing both page views "per visitor" and banner exposure in the process!
- We saw continual international growth and diversification in the site visitor demographics and correspondence--geosynthetica.net can now be read in 40+ different languages!
- Underwriters wanted more exposure so geosynthetica.net worked hard to become an official news source for Google™ - much of geosyntheitica's news is circulated by Google to tens of thousands of interested readers--get us your news and we will get it to the world!
