SUMMARY
NCC
web
analy:cs
were
collected
for
Dec
1,
2010
though
to
Mar
1,
2011
and
show
the
number
of

:me
spent
per
visit,
average
:me
on
site,
and
various
other
data
including
which
mediums
are
funneling
traffic
to
canadascapitcal.gc.ca.
Based
on
this
informa:on
we
can
conclude
no:ons
such
that
even
though
TwiWer
is
the
most
popular
form
of
communica:on
(54%)
around
Winterlude
men:ons,
Facebook
and
organic
search
are
what
bring
people
to
the
website
–
twiWer
ranks
31st
for
referred
web
traffic.
Mobile
app
informa:on
deduce
that
downloads
skyrocketed
the
third
week
in
January
and
con:nued
strong
un:l
the
first
week
of
Winterclude
came
to
and
end.
Downloads
peeked
upon
app
launch
dates
–
updates
did
not
seem
to
increase
downloads
–
however
the
WLv1.1
update
was
released
right
around
Winterlude
kick
off
which
was
when
app
downloads
began
to
peak.
Radian6

Monitoring
Plaborm
was
used
to
measure
social
media
analy:cs.
Winterlude
ranked
highest
among
compe:ng
events
(men:ons)
but
only
places
fourth
in
terms
of
posi:ve
sen:ment
–
this
is
believed
to
be
because
of
the
nega:ve
Foie
Gras
aWen:on.
Radian6
calculated
the
most
influen:al
TwiWer
users
men:oning
Foie

• The
Radian6
soaware
pulls
in
social
media-‐specific
sites
by
using
a
special
mixture
of
RSS
feeds,
proprietary
crawlers,
and
access
to
APIs
like
Twi>er
• Radian6
doesn’t
cover
websites
in
general
unless
they
have
a
social
media
component.
A
site
might
exists
on
the
Internet
but
that
does
not
mean
it’s
a
social
media
site,
and
if
it’s
not
a
social
media
site
then,
Radian6
most
likely
doesn’t
cover
it.
• Radian6
also
strongly
respects
the
Terms
of
Service
of
websites
and
regulated
crawler
access,
meaning
if
a
site
has
been
made
private,
Radian6
fully
respects
that
privacy.
