Website visitor milestone
You may read in the local media this week or have read already online that the Falmouth.co.uk website has just passed the 750,000 unique visitor mark since we launched it 2 years ago. It is the official destination site for the town and we have recently been working with the Visitor Information Centre to help promote it for the benefit of businesses in the town. All BID businesses as I’ve highlighted a number of times, can have a free page to help promote themselves and with a monthly unique average of 30,000 hits it is well worth doing! The press release is attached or you can read it here – WEBSITE MILESTONE...

Falmouth for Business
Many of you will have noticed the new Celebrating Falmouth Businesses
wallpaper on the ex Bon Marche site. We’ve complimented this with a developing
Falmouth for Business online section on www.falmouth.co.uk
see here – FALMOUTH
FOR BUSINESS. This section which is still being developed, will be a
one stop shop for individuals/businesses thinking of investing in Falmouth. We
have also put the Celebrating Falmouth’s Business images up here as well, as
you can see.

Maritime Line Growth
Past 4 week period - The Maritime Line carried the most number of passengers 53K+, for any given 4 week period. This is great news and in fact the year to date figure is already the highest ever in terms of the number of passengers carried. Whilst there is never an ideal time to carry out engineering work on the line (as per last week), given the volumes it become clear why regular maintenance is crucial for future capacity.
