Pingdom has put together some great numbers which outlines 29 social networks that have over 1 million visitors per day. For traffic data, they used Google Trends for Websites.

Note that these numbers are estimates made by Google from a variety of data sources, so they will not be 100% correct, but should still give us a good idea of how the sites compare.

Take a look to this short infographic:

There are three facts existing in today’s 2.0 worls about feeds:

1. FeedBurner represents, even before Google acquired this company, the preferred service used for RSS feeds.
2. All bloggers, web sites and companies, which base most of their strategy in number of visitors; know that having a nice way to show the popularity of your website is a key factor for attracting more loyal visitors, advertisements, etc.
3. FeedBurner values change tremendously every day, if you are not publishing on daily basis.

To fix this problem, we can use this code in functions.php which will use the average readers from the last 7 days, a number more accurate for our RSS feed (download the TXT for functions.php):

function get_average_readers($feed_id,$interval = 7){
	$today = date('Y-m-d', strtotime("now"));
	$ago = date('Y-m-d', strtotime("-".$interval." days"));
	$feed_url="https://feedburner.google.com/api/awareness/1.0/GetFeedData?uri=".$feed_id."&dates=".$ago.",".$today;
	$ch = curl_init();
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
	curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $feed_url);
	$data = curl_exec($ch);
	curl_close($ch);
	$xml = new SimpleXMLElement($data);
	$fb = $xml->feed->entry['circulation'];

	$nb = 0;
	foreach($xml->feed->children() as $circ){
		$nb += $circ['circulation'];
	}

	return round($nb/$interval);
}

Once done, you can call the function wherever you want in your theme files. Pass your Feedburner feed id as a parameter (download the TXT for this example):

<?php
$nb = get_average_readers('catswhocode');
echo "I have ".$nb." RSS readers";
?>

I know, you are thinking Google right? And it totally makes sense, I’m pretty sure that the top search website around the world is actually the most popular website; but they didn’t include themselves in this list. The number 1 and most popular site is Facebook.

The top Social Network had 540,000,000 unique visitors during April with 570,000,000,000 page views. Number 2 is Yahoo.com with 490,000,000 and 70,000,000,000 page views. And number 3 could confuse you: Live.com, which is categorized as a search engine, but actually when you use that on your browser you should get the login site for Windows Live (Hotmail, MSN, etc).

And later on the list, you will find msn.com (number 5), bing.com (number 13), Hotmail.com (number 30); all of them are actually quite similar and very much connected.

We can also find Twitter.com at just number 18, even below of adobe.com or soso.com
