Taking a Moment to Brag

A couple of days ago I checked the statistics of this blog. There are many times when I am pleasantly surprised by what I see, but this has totally blown me away.

The pageviews for last month were 10,057. The most I have reached prior to this was a little over 4,000. My own pageviews are not recorded, so I have not been able to plump up the numbers in any way, but never could I have done it to such an extreme.

The other impressive number is the all time history at 502,996. For a hobbyist blogger who is not entirely focused on a target audience, this is thrills me.

Ending the Year With a Smash

The year 2013 ended with these numbers of pageviews and actually 2314 posts, since I posted today.

Milestone 2025

I have hit a milestone. I have hit the 2,025th blog post since starting this blog. I would have hit it much faster, but in 2005 and 2006, I was really a slug, ignoring it almost completely. However, that has turned around considerably.

I have turned off the counter for Google analytics to count my own page views, so this is real data without any interference from me. 

Two thousand and twenty-five published posts. I was going to post this at 2,000, but then realized for some holidays, all I posted were holiday greetings. To be fair, I waited until I had enough to balance it out.

A New Record

I think this is my new record. Wowzer, sometimes I really impress myself. If anyone else is impressed enough to offer a writing gig along with a monetary offer, please write to drryanjames@gmail.com.

Sorry I Missed You

I missed it. I had hoped to see it happen, but I lost track of time. It has only been the last couple of years that I have used Google Analytics for this blog.  Last week, I happened to notice that I was close to the 50,000 page view mark. I turned off it counting my own views. I missed seeing it close to rolling over to the 50,000. Now I guess I will have to wait for the 60,000.

Thank you to all who read my rants. The top countries who are currently following me are:
USA
UK
Germany
Romania
Canada

What is wrong with you Canadians? I have always said good things about you! Let’s get a move on it.

A Good Month

For the first time ever, I looked at my stats, other than the Feedjit stats in the right column. For the month of 2010 Sep 18 – 2010 Oct 17, I had 3,285 page views. I am impressed with all of you who are reading, but have the self-control to not send a comment.
Speak up! Let yourself be heard. Look at this breakdown by operating system used. At another time, I will show a breakdown by country, but let me say that the 10 from China is quite impressive, but the 78 from Belarus knocks my socks off.
