Big brother smashing digital numbers.

Sounds to me like they're patting themselves on the back, and trying to justify that 4 shows a week, no live feeds and hardly any content equals success.

After all the comments on the facebook page, I'm disheartened that they don't want to listen.

:(

and you've started believing anything that anyone at Ch9 says, since when?
 
As much as they like to gloat about their stats this year they mean nothing unless context is provided for previous year. Proving difficult to find context and comparable stats, especially as they like to be so vague.

This years stats (not independently verified):
Big Brother’s digital numbers speak for themselves and they’re still rolling:
- Over 63 million page views
- Over 7 million long form streams on 9Jumpin
- Over 11 million visits to the Big Brother site
- Almost 1 million “Your Power” votes since series launch
- 857,186 Facebook fans
- 198,756 Twitter followers
- 98,400 Instagram followers

Only thing I can find through Google is the following for 2012:
Big Brother - 14 million highlight catch-up streams (in addition to 2.9 million episode views online)

... which suggests although more watch episodes now on JumpIn (not surprisinging considering the later slot, erratic scheduling and it no longer really being seen as a show you must watch "live") that they've had at least 6m fewer visits to the website this year than in 2012, which had 16.9m watching videos and almost certainly millions more visiting the site without watching videos.

Even at the simplest of guesswork from the stats available it looks like website traffic has probably halved in two years - though it would be great if someone could get the stats to prove that from bigbrother.com.au and the current 9JumpIn site.
