Aberystwyth Town are delighted to reveal that the club’s digital media channels received nearly ten million views during the 2017/18 season, along with over one million visitors, which represents an increase of over 73% from the 2016/17 season.
Club Marketing Officer Mart Smith, who has been tracking the performance of the club’s digital media channels across the season told atfc.org.uk the following:
“It’s been another season of huge success off the pitch for Aberystwyth Town, with mammoth growth in our digital performances compared to the previous seasons. The peak performance was seen during preseason when another piece of the club’s digital content went super viral and got featured in an array of national newspapers.
The fantastic post-split form shown by the players resulted in a strong finish not just on the pitch but off the pitch as well as the club soared to nearly ten million views and smashed over one million visitors which represented a huge percentage increase from the previous report.
During the season the club had many memorable moments, notably, the incredible JD Welsh Cup performance which took the club all the way to the Cup Final held at Newtown. Incredible victories throughout the season against the likes of Connah’s Quay Nomads and Bala Town contributed to the fantastic buzz on social media for all things Aberystwyth Town!”
