The website of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine maintains a leading position in terms of page views among official parliamentary websites worldwide. This trend has been tracked by the CHESNO (ЧЕСНО) Movement since 2016, and data provided by the parliaments themselves confirm the Ukrainian parliamentary portal's leadership.
The study covered 25 national parliaments as well as the European Parliament. In 2024, the official website of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine received over 138 million page views — the highest figure among parliamentary websites in Europe and worldwide. For comparison, the German parliament’s site ranked second with over 80 million views, while Denmark came third with a significantly smaller figure of 7.9 million. Following are Hungary (6.1 million), Portugal (6 million), Canada (4.9 million), Spain and Poland (3.5 million each), Finland (2.3 million), and Estonia (2.1 million). The scale of difference is striking, once again confirming how actively Ukrainians follow the work of their parliament.
At the same time, 94% of visitors to the Verkhovna Rada website are users from Ukraine. People seek information from the primary source, despite the full-scale war, martial law restrictions, blackouts, and other challenges.
Most parliaments primarily receive organic search traffic (from users’ search queries), followed by direct traffic, and then referral traffic (users coming from external sites). As CHESNO’s analysis shows, the Verkhovna Rada website exhibits the same trend — search traffic accounts for 67% of its total traffic.
