Sex sells... So what else is new?

Further proof that pseudo-sexual scandal sells with the news yesterday that all the hoo-ha over Vanity Fair's not-exactly-naked Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana photos generated record traffic for the Conde Nast magazine's Web site. This convinced  the magazine to push up the Web publication of its own story and accompanying 18-slide slideshow earlier than it had planned. This alone was enough to generate 365,000 page views that night; Vanity Fair.com generally gets around 100,000 page views a day. The bonanza happened on Monday, when the site put up a photo shoot video it had been planning on saving for later in the week. By the end of the day VF.com had racked up 1.8 million unique visitors (it normally gets between 20,000 and 40,000) and a staggering 17 million page views. I guess it's all about key words... Like Miley Cyrus!!!

George, when did you start freelancing as a hair stylist?

At the end of the day, it's all about selling magazines. With subscription numbers dropping, production costs risings and industry-wide layoffs, it's desperate times for a desperate industry. Can't wait to see who tops this! Next...
