Strong growth for University World News – Africa
Web analytics for the Africa edition of
University World News has confirmed a steep upward trajectory in readership traffic recorded since 2018, in part due to it becoming a weekly publication a year ago.
The figures show that readership traffic to the Africa page has increased by 334% during the past three years.
Contributing factors include a revamp of the
University World News website and the introduction of a mobile platform. In addition, the
University World News – Africa (UWN Africa) newsletter became a weekly publication early in April 2020, at the time when COVID-19 started to affect every aspect of the higher education system in Africa, driving a surge in readership.
