Nairaland is an online
community created by
Seun Osewa in March
2005. It is targeted at
Nigerians.
[2]Nairaland currently has
over 1,278211,340
registered accounts
(December 2014).
[3]and is ranked as the 7th most visited site in
Nigeria (and the most
visited indigenous site)
according to Alexa.com.
[4] Nigeria
reportedly has over 55
million Internet users,
[5] corresponding to
32.9% of the entire
population. With
Nairaland having a
considerable but
unconfirmed number of
users based in diaspora,
this statistic suggests
that a maximum 3% of
Nigerian Internet users
are registered on
Nairaland compared to
Facebook's 11 million
Nigerian users which
corresponds to
approximately 20% of
the Internet population.
[6] Nairaland, however,
does have a
considerable number of
unregistered users, as
registration is only
necessary for posting.
Figures published by
Nairaland in June 2013
suggest that they had
6,845,453 unique
visitors from
16,668,654 visits. and
60,031,356 pageviews
in the 30 days of that
month.
[7]2014 down period
Following a successful
hacking attempt,
Nairaland went offline
briefly on the 22 June
2014.
[8] The hackers
were able to get access
to the website's host
server and backup, and
maliciously deleted all
its content. Three days
later, it was back online
after some data had
been recovered from a
remote backup.
[9]However, data from 10
January 2014 through
the date of the attack
was lost.
