Xavier News: By the Numbers

The Xavier News brand has grown exponentially since its digital transition—the most significant progress seen within the 2021-2022 school year. As of late, the site’s numbers have been at an all-time high.

Eight of the top ten most read stories were created during the 2021-2022 school year.

Gained 33,903 page views and 7,349 users during this school year. That is a 663.33% increase in page views and a 1083.92% increase in users.

Gained 678 new users this year – 5,111 views in total.

Gained around 727 users—122 additional page views. That is 2.39% increase in page views and a 107.23% increase in users.

The upcoming 2022-2023 forecasts the journalism team jumping from 19 to at least 30 members, a far cry from last year’s class taught by Mr. Stemle with five members. The Xavier News brand shows absolutely no signs of slowing down. It is incredibly exciting to see the progress and growth made in this year alone, and the future will be no different.
