Websites give thanks for the Kyle & Jackie O effect
If web stats service Alexa is to be believed, the Kyle Sandilands rape saga has been good to The Punch:

Shame with all the Bad Blogs we did not move KYLE off Radio….
What happened to the power of the press?
Please dont let the Kyle debarcle disappear under the carpet, it will only mean when things quieten down, this annoying and demeaning toad will be back on air with his tacky bogan partner.
Lets keep the pressure on to keep this human rubbish off our airwaves.
Succinctly put Catherine – please Australia, let’s keep these wastes of space and air out of the limelight for the rest of our days.
Alexa is a good comparative rank, but thats about all. It depends on the user having the Alexa toolbar installed, and many more Americans, Indians and Pakistanis have it installed than Aussies.
Also, their traffic rank has increased by almost 3000%!!!!!! So their traffic sucked badly prior to 3 months ago…. and, according to Alexa, over 50% of their downstream traffic came from news.com.au… so they can probably thank them.
Hi Bob,
Thanks for your comment. You’re right that Alexa’s a rough tool at best.
The Punch only launched just over two months ago which is why it didn’t register before then.
Cheers,
Tim – Mumbrella
Hi Tim…. really? DOH! dont i feel foolish! 🙂
I didn’t check the history of the site because i thought it had been going for a long time….. well now i AM impressed – 2 months and a 60k ranking already…… not surprising if its getting fed by news.com.au i guess though.
