FXstreet Forex News approaching to all-time highs
Posted on September 3, 2009 at 11:18 in About FXstreet.com, Forex, US Economy, Winds of change in Switzerland by Francesc

Hi everyone

I’m terrible happy and proud today to share with you the incredible performance FXstreet’s Forex News are having since we took over the news elaboration at the beginning of the year.

http://www.fxstreet.com/news/

Let me explain….

FXstreet’s Forex News has always been a very important section for our site. For many years, we had a very complete news feed from AFX News, Reuters and Dow Jones. With those providers, the section reached an all-time high of 506,000 page views on January 2008.

AFX News was bought then by Thomson and then bought Reuters or vice versa, they changed the feed and its quality fell abruptly. Also, Dow Jones is changing the feed too, so we had to move and fast, deciding to get rid of Thomson/Reuters news and give ourselves a shot and create our own 100% 24/5 Forex focused feed.

The first consequence of that decision was a heavy fall in news traffic, but with the hard work of a great team lead by Sandra Garcia, FXstreet’s Forex news section started to steadily pick up its numbers a few months ago till reaching in August - YES IN THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER BREAK! - the second best all-time high touching 503,000 page views.

Unfortunately this numbers will be hit in a few months when we cancel our agreement with Dow Jones as we are not interested in the new feed they are putting together, but instead we will increase the in-house editor’s team with the money we will save from DJ deal. I hope with hard work again, we will be able to recover from the blow of loosing DJ news and move up to touch news high in the 3rd quarter 2010.

Also, I must highlight the big interest of many brokerage firms, IBs, other Forex related sites and financial sites in incorporating our news to their offerings. Soon - I hope - a very important site will be publishing our news feed so I very confident in the quality of the service we are providing.

For the time being, my congratulations to Sandra Garcia, Valeria Bednarik, Mauricio Carrillo, Guillermo Alcalá, Vicky Ferrer, Matías Salord and Sandra Michael. They make possible to have a 100% 24/5 Forex focused feed in English and Spanish.

Congratulations guys!

Francesc
