According to Site Meter, sometime yesterday The Sound and Fury logged its 10,000 th visitor. Now that’s probably not a drop of water in the vast cistern that is the greater blogosphere, but for me, for the few years I’ve been playing at this, it’s definitely a milestone.
I’ve found recently by checking Site Meter’s recorded traffic against Blogger’s analytics, that Site Meter is missing quite a few readers. But since it’s what I’ve used to track reader traffic almost since the beginning, I’m still considering 10,000 a significant number for me. As always, your readership is appreciated and necessary. Thanks to all of you loyal readers out there, and welcome to all of the new ones. And thanks, also, to the small network of genre-minded bloggers that I’ve met along the way. You guys have become a small cluster of friends and advocates, without which, this blog might never have seen the light of day.
Kirk out.
Some days I'm all for saying fuck the numbers, but hey, I can get behind a good number same as anyone else. Congrats, Kris. You've earned every hit.
ReplyDeleteThat means a lot, Niall. Especially coming from you. Thanks, man.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, though. In the end, it's how much you love or hate what you're doing that you have to reconcile. Not the numbers.
