2019 was a blast for the Last Day Deaf! Last year we referred to the more than 5% increase in traffic; Well, last year was just over 23%! Furthermore, almost 52% of that traffic is from the most important markets, United States & United Kingdom, so couldn’t ask for more! And this is thanks to you, readers, artists, labels etc. But enough with the self-praise and the gratitude, so the following lists show which posts (Top-10) were read most during 2019, monthly (January-December), plus the Top-20 most read ones, among those that had been published within past 12 months (we also know that many of you are “obsessed” with particular past posts, so keep visiting and help us grow even more!). There you go:
