My Free Portland WiFi site’s traffic has exploded since I wrote about knowing the full story. Traffic has grown an average of 20% per month.
And in that time, the total number of free hotspots has increased almost two-fold. This is a combination of more people adding WiFi to their businesses, as well as the greater reach of WifiPDX enticing people to add their spot.
One could also credit Elliot’s design.
Regardless of why it’s hopping, I’m naturally happy. WifiPDX started as a print publication, and it will return to that initial vision in some format. There is a lot of power to locally-oriented websites, as well as offline-online combinations. More to come, I’m sure.
