Some Stats

I thought it might be fun to share some of the blogs stats with you all. Although I occasionally get very inflated views (like one day this week I got over 900 views from a small island off of Georgia – in the US – super weird), they have stayed stable day-to-day for the most part, with spikes on days I post and the days after. My blog stats also track where my views are from (by country, region, and city), what people click on, and referrers. Although I’ve connected to google analytics, somehow I still don’t actually see search terms that land people on my blog. Either it doesn’t track or there is no one coming to me from search engines. There are two listed under “all time” stats, but nothing in the last six months.

100+ Comments & 10k+ Views!

This is quite the milestone! My blog has reached more than 100 comments – well, 171 but 59 of those are responses from me and 8 are pingbacks – there are over 100 comments from you all, engaging with me, in conversation with me, connecting with the things I’ve written, and reminding me that sharing is worth the effort.

If you’re feeling shy, I get it – you can email me (marie@notaspankingblog.net), but I would love to see here in the comments what you think about what I share, and every single comment puts a smile on my face and encourages me to continue sharing what I write. I also respond to every single comment and endeavor to continue to do so.

Additionally, I’ve surpassed 10,000 views. I know those aren’t unique views, but that still blows my mind. At the time I am writing this, I stand at 2,474 visitors which I think is the “unique” counter.

Thank you. I hope you keep reading and commenting and connecting with me.
