My typical reader: underemployed oyaji!

By Ken Y-N ( September 7, 2007 at 04:08) · Filed under Site News

Following on from last month’s post on the top twenty or more sites in English on Japan, I decided to add some code from Quantcast that allows collection of reader demographics.

Now, after running it for a bit I see that my statistics suggest that my readership tends towards the 45-54 year old age band, is predominantly Asian and male, is more likely to be a graduate from further education, yet earns a salary of under US$30,000.

      You wrote: “…predominantly Asian and male…a graduate from further education… salary of under US$30,000.”

      Do your readership statistics really suggest people who are “Asian” or just predominantly based in Asia—over educated gaijin slacking in Mysterious Orient like me? ;-)

      Taro, I suspect it might mean those based in the Orient? Thus we have no US salary…

      Interesting. I find it hard to believe that the extended demographic data (salary?!) is anywhere near accurate, though.

      (And I’m not just saying that because I’m a 29-year-old North American female, honest. :))
