Turning Data Into a StoryRecently the 2013 speech volumes were analysed by Mzalendo, leading to creation of an infographic. This lead to front-page news in the national press.

Highlighting the Quality of Information Presentation
Sites such as TheyWorkforYou.com, Mzalendo.com and pa.org.za publish transcripts and data in a far more accessible manner than the official sources. Ensuring that the mainstream media are aware of this fact, and that linking to these sources adds benefit to them can help drive traffic. See this recent example from TheyWorkForYou.
