Cork board website a big hit in 2013

Cork GAA chiefs have welcomed the news that the official county board website saw an increase in traffic of more than one million visitors during 2013.

The site, www.gaacork.ie, received a total of 4.45 million hits, an increase of 26% on the 3.35 million in 2012. Each month in 2012 had been an increase on its 2011 equivalent, and this continued in 2013, which July, August and September all reporting more than 500,000, something which had never happened before in three consecutive months.

Cork County Board PRO Tracey Kennedy is hopeful of further increases for 2014, but also points to the county’s hurling campaign as a contributor.
