Clearly I have a warped sense of humour sometimes, but I couldn't help laughing to myself when I learned that the Government's Debt Management Office website costs £92,000 to maintain in 2006-07 whilst only receiving 49,645 unique visits. Admittedly it's an extrapolated joke, but that means on a "cost/traffic" calculation in pounds it running in the red, as it costs almost double to maintain the pound cost to maintain than the traffic (£1.85 per visit). Perhaps they should ring themselves for advice on how to solve the problem?
Made me laugh anyway.
Tax payers money don't count as expenditure to this administration.
ReplyDeleteI actually use that site for Information on Gilts. It's one of the few that do make sense. £92,000 is a bit steep though!
