1M Monthly Views on Real Python

We're Celebrating 1 Million Page Views per Month!

by Ricky White community

They say people come to Python for the language and stay for the community. We couldn’t agree more! You mean the world to us, and we are honored to have you as a reader!

Today, we’re celebrating reaching 1,000,000 monthly page views at realpython.com.

We are so thankful to you and the rest of the Python community for helping us reach this milestone. More than one million views a month is a mind-blowing number to us—and it means much more to us than the increase in server fees 😉

Reaching this milestone shows us that we are providing you with the resources you need to grow as a developer, and that fills us with joy.

We write comprehensive tutorials twice a week because we care about teaching. We are all passionate Pythonistas, and we want everyone to know that the Python community can be their home, too.

To show our appreciation, we have decided to give away some of our paid Python courses and books as a big thank you to the community for your continued support.

Here’s How It’s Going to Work

The contest will run from September 1st to September 30th. At the end of the contest, a random entrant will be picked to receive the Grand Prize. Each week, throughout the contest, we will randomly pick winners for smaller prizes.
