KentOnline's audience has grown by a huge 59% over the past year, figures released today reveal.

We welcomed an average of 1.937m unique monthly browsers between January and June this year, the official figures from the Audited Bureau of Circulation show.

That was the biggest year-on-year increase for any regional news network in the UK.

KentOnline's audience has grown by 15% in the past year

It was a period that saw some huge news stories, including the tragic disappearance of Pat Lamb - the most read article in KentOnline's history.

The other most-read stories included May's earthquake, the fire in Week Street, Maidstone and a 13-car crash in Southborough.
