[ ***The Hill*** ](http://thehill.com/?ref=capitolcommunicator.com)**had record online traffic in January** with 25 million unique visitors in the U.S., a 135 percent increase year-over-year, according to comScore’s Multi-Platform Report that was recently released. That, states a release, “makes *The Hill* considerably larger than *Politico* and most other independent political sites.

*“The Hill*‘s January numbers mark a new pinnacle for the brand, which has seen a significant acceleration in its rate of digital growth since the November election with an increase of 40 percent, while most major political sites including *Politico* and others are down in traffic during the same period, according to comScore. *The Hill* is continuing its rapid growth in February according to measured sites for the last 30 days on Quantcast. *The Hill* significantly beats *Politico, Vice, Vox, Daily Caller* and all other independent political sites.

*“”The Hill* has always been non-partisan and our explosive growth is a testament to that approach,” said **James Finkelstein**, chairman of Capitol Hill Publishing Corp, which publishes *The Hill*. “We expect this growth to continue, with February on track to be another record-setting traffic month, making us the fastest-growing political news site in our competitive set.”
