Hi

I've been asked to advertise on a niche website and they are telling me the traffic is x per month avg - is there anyway I can check this? I'm not expecting huged traffic, as I said its quite niche, but whats to stop them saying a much bigger figure?

Any thoughts?

They should be able to provide you with stats for at least a month.

Just make sure you get stats from the current or previous month, don't let them fob you off with stats from a random month that might have higher hits.
