Score Media Metrix today announced the Top 50 U.S. Internet Properties for the month of March 2004.  In March, the active online population across U.S. home, work and university PCs totaled 154.1 million people.  Spring break and Easter travel planning fueled increases across virtually all major sites in the Hotels & Resorts category, making it the top gaining category in March.  With the mid-March airing of Wrestlemania XX, World Wrestling Entertainment grew by more than 50 percent versus February to become the top gaining online property this month.

I thought it was interesting.

 

Back in the internet boom WWE had one of the most media laden websites and had one of the highest bandwidth costs for all company websites that provide free streaming media. This was offset by the advertising fees they were getting but since the bubble burst they have cut back significantly.

 

That said, I wouldn't be surprised if WWE's growth was down to more hits from common users instead of new people. No doubt mainly due to WM XX.
