The business has traditionally been known as the publisher of the three market-leading France sector magazines; France Magazine, French Property News and Living France. In recent months, not only has the company launched new sites for each of these titles, but added to their online armoury with some exciting new additions including France Property Shop, France Rentals, France Photo Shop and The France Show - a key marketing tool for its Olympia lifestyle show.

The results have been extraordinary, taking monthly page impressions for January to a massive 2,091,127. Unique visitors also hit an all time high of 103,533 for the same period.

Individually, Living France.com enjoyed its best month since records begun, as did the shared forums which feed all three magazine sites. Meanwhile, unique visitors and page impressions to France-Rental.com, the holiday rentals site, doubled month on month. France Property Shop saw an increase of over 10,000 unique visitors and 300,000 page impressions month on month. French-Property-News.com had 40,000 more page impressions and 6000 more unique visitors month on month, whereas the France Show site attracted 24,000 unique visitors in January alone. To complete the record-breaking picture, page impressions were up 25% for France Mag.com too.

James Parfitt, Web Content Manager for Archant Life France felt the latest statistics were simply reflecting the start of an ongoing upward trend for our stable of sites. “We have put a lot of work into our online presence over the past 12 months” he commented “and we are just starting to see this commitment bear fruit. Of course, this is tremendous news for us, but also for clients as it gives them a new outlet with relevant high volume traffic to go after, at very cost-effective rates. The feedback we are getting is very positive in terms of online advertising and sponsorship on the sites.”
