NEW YORK The New York Times, once again, tops the list of newspaper Web site
traffic in June, according to data from Nielsen//NetRatings. There was a slight
change in positions, with The Boston Globe beating out The Wall Street Journal
for the No. 5 slot in June. In May, the Journal was No. 5 in terms of traffic.
The Journals sister publications, Ottaway newspapers, climbed in the June
rankings to No. 12 from No. 27 in May.
The alternative weekly chain Village Voice Media, as well as the Detroit Free
Press and the Detroit News, also made an appearance in the top 30 in June.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution lost its grip on the highest time spent per
person of the top 30 ranked newspapers. That honor goes the New York Times,
though its average slipped in June to about 27 minutes from about 29 minutes in
May.
