Scots Take to the Web in Lead Up to Independence Vote

Ahead of Thursday’s referendum on Scottish independence, online interest in political content is peaking in Scotland. In August, 17% of Scottish users accessed Politics sites via desktop or laptop computers compared with just 11% of users in the rest of the UK, representing a 50% increase in political content penetration north of the border.

The independence debate has gathered considerable momentum in closing weeks as reach of Political sites jumped from just 10% in July to 17% in August amongst those in Scotland as users turn to the web for the latest information on this important vote.

*Users in Scotland defined as those living in North East Scotland, Central Scotland and Border TV regions.
