ACE reaches 1 000 000 visitors! The ACE website has now reached over one million individual visitors per year, representing virtually every single country in the world. This is an increase of 70% as compared to the same period last year. New and more accessible content, improved Google rankings and translations of key material in Spanish, French and Arabic are likely to be the main reasons for the increase. The ACE server will be updated in November to meet the new demands and increase the speed of the website.

 As you may have noticed, technical improvements and new features have been implemented throughout the ACE website over the past few months. Among other things, the ACE website now offers an RSS news-feed function for easy access to the latest electoral news, a new and highly advanced search function, newly updated comparative data from around the world and regional pages displaying regional electoral news and events and provides direct access to country pages. 

 A new design of the ACE website will be launched first half of 2010. In the lead up to this launch new technical improvements, such as structural changes and new features, will be systematically implemented.

We hope that you enjoy the developments of the site and look forward to receiving your feedback at [email protected] so that we can continue our efforts to always improve ACE.
