Hitwise says YouTube a growing source of traffic for political websites

As promised, Heather Hopkins has followed up on the post on Open last week (“US politics dominate 50% of top online videos“)about the number of popular political videos on YouTube with some serious analysis of traffic between the video community and political websites.

The verdict: YouTube’s highly connected, and growing more so, with political sites, with increasing traffic between the two in both the UK and US.

More on politics later…

  1. hmmm, that’s actually really interesting. I wouldn’t have connected youtube with politics to that degree. Nice post.
