We thought it would happen, but we didn’t think it would happen three days before the end of the month, but this afternoon LatinoRebels.com (a site run and administered a dedicated group of about 20 social media influentials that is dedicated to alternative media, opinion, commentary, politics, Latino culture, history, analysis, comedy, independent journalism, blogging, music, and general mayhem) eclipsed 100,000 pageviews (and over 50,000 unique visitors) in the month of March. It is the first time our company has reached this number in a month’s worth of traffic. The 100,000 pageviews in March also eclipsed our total traffic of 2011, from when we launched the site on May 5, 2011 until December 31. Here is a screen capture from our Google Analytics:
To everyone who has read us, THANK YOU. Our latest web rankings today also pushed our Alexa ranking into the following numbers, making us one of the top (if not, the top) independently-owned Latino media websites in the US (and we won’t complain about our global ranking either). We are entering our last month before our one-year anniversary and we feel that 2012 will be another banner year. Crazy.
So how do we feel today about our latest news? Hit it, House of Pain.
My compliments to you, well deserved…
Gracias!!!!!
YOUR WEBSITE IS A JOKE. SIMPLE FACT BEING IS THIS…..
” LATINOS ARE ANGLO EUROPEANS FROM ITALY”, YOU PEOPLE ARE NOTHING MORE THEN STRAIGHT MEXICANS. IF YOU WANT TO BE POLITICALLY CORRECT IN THE RACE YOU CLAIM YOU ARE THEN YOU NEED TO RENAME YOUR WEBPAGE NAME TO MEXICANREBELS.COM AS YOU ARE “NOT” LATINOS.
BTW, DON’T EVEN TRY TO USE THE NAME “HISPANIC”, AS HISPANICS ARE FROM SPAIN. VALIDATE YOUR PROPER ETHNICITY AND YOU WON’T LOOK LIKE THE UNEDUCATED WETBACKS THAT YOU CURRENTLY ARE SEEN AS… THEN AND ONLY THEN WILL YOU BE PROPERLY ACKNOWLEDGED BY THE WORLD.
Thanks for the comment. We are all American citizens in the company, a combination of Americans with Mexican, Salvadorean Puerto Rican, Cuban, Dominican, Peruvian, Argentine and Spanish roots. We appreciate the comment and for your opinion. God Bless America.
As for Latino, you might want to check your facts:
A Latino or Latina is a person considered part of an ethnic background that is traditionally Spanish-speaking, especially a citizen of, or an immigrant from, a Spanish-speaking country. The term latino is used to refer to males only or a combination of males and females in a group, whereas the term latina is used to refer to females only.
In the United States, the term is in official use in the ethnonym Hispanic or Latino, defined as “a person of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South or Central American, or other Spanish culture or origin regardless of race.”[1][2] The term is also used in Spain as a term of self-identification for immigrants from Hispanoamerica.
What a bunch of dumba$$ beaners!
Thanks!
Where does all this hate come from? Can’t we just find common ground and get along people? Hate has never been an emotion that has resolved any problems.
welcome to my world in the US
Julito; why is it when it serves your purpose you refer to yourself as Puerto Rican, and then turn around and label yourself as American when that classification serves your purpose? I watched the conference yesterday with the Miami Marlin’s manager Ozzie who is Venezuelan-American. At one point he said the misunderstanding happened because he was being interviewed by “American” reporters who obviously misinterpreted his words. Was he trying to say he was Venezuelan and not American? But when one of the Cuban-American reporters in the room put the manager on the spot by saying he did say the word “love” when referring to Castro the manager then retracted his believe that the “American” reporters misinterpreted his words and said he spoke the wrong word. Can you understand how this would make many Americans angry? You can’t have it both ways! Either you’re American or you are not.
I wouldn’t say it serves my purposes. It is who I am, a Puerto Rican born in Puerto Rico with US citizenship. Here in the US, as you can see from those comments, I am just a beaner. Because I am a complex man of Puerto Rican descent with American citizenship. It is what I call the Puerto Rican paradox.
