Sharp Increase in Advertlets Traffic due to The 2008 Malaysian Elections

Sharp Increase in Advertlets Traffic due to The 2008 Malaysian Elections

We had the biggest jump in traffic ever - our usual Malaysian traffic ranges from about 115,000 - 150,000 uniques. However, on the 7th of March 2008 however (a day before the Malaysian elections), the Advertlets network reached out to exactly 249,734 unique Malaysian internet users. This increase in traffic is undoubtedly due to people were searching political blogs online for information on candidates and parties. Statistics like this reinforce the view that blogs will increasingly become a significant source of information and expression for their readers. Vote wisely for the future of Malaysia, and I hope you’ve all made the right choice :)

Also, most of you in Singapore would have heard through the newspapers on Advertlets partnering with cliCKTRUE, a division of Singapore Press Holdings. Read more here too at IzReloaded’s blog (Iz is our Singaporean Blog Ambassador). More details on that tie up soon, as well as the increased traffic in Singapore, and what it means for our valued Singaporean members! (PS: The first most significant benefit, is of course, a HUGE amount of ad campaigns coming your way soon!). Stay tuned!

Scheduled Upgrade Complete

The upgrade is now fully complete, starting from 9PM yesterday, and thankfully we didn’t have more than 30 minutes of downtime. Its 2:43AM! Our tech team just came back from the datacentre an hour and a half ago, and now, double-checking from home, we’re happy to say that all Advertlets functions are back online. You should be feeling that ads load much faster now, as well as your Advertlets account login and this website. Let us know if you face any issues, cheers!

Scheduled Downtime Tonight For Server Upgrade

We will be undergoing a major upgrade to our servers tonight, due to increased international traffic and a sharp increase in the number of blogger signups. As of such, during the period of 9PM-10PM tonight, you may face some downtime/errors in ad serving and this website. After that, Advertlets should be faster than ever before. Please let us know if you face any issues after this time period. Cheers! :)
