Statistics Page
A statistics page is a long-form resource that compiles credible, citable data points on a specific topic — designed to attract editorial backlinks from journalists and bloggers.
Statistics pages typically cover '[industry] statistics in [year]', combining proprietary data, third-party research, and clearly attributed sources.
Why Statistics Page matters
They're one of the highest-ROI link bait formats. A well-built statistics page can earn 100–500+ referring domains over its lifetime as writers cite specific data points.
How Statistics Page works in practice
Update the page annually so it stays the canonical 'latest version' for journalists. Promote new editions through digital PR and outreach to writers who linked to the previous version.
Best practices
- Lead with the most quotable, recent data points.
- Always attribute sources clearly.
- Update annually and re-promote.
- Pitch journalists when the new edition publishes.
