Alpine Opinion

Towards 500,000

Posted in Bright Australia, Internet, social media by Ray Dixon on 28 January, 2012

In the words of Sally Fields, "So ... you DO like me!"

Some time tomorrow (Sunday 29th January 2012), the counter on this blog will click over to 500,000 views. Not that I’m a stats man or care very much, but it just surprises me that so many people would read the tripe I put out. Actually, the 500,000 would have come much earlier if I hadn’t gone into hiatus for about a year from mid 2010.

Anyway, for the record, that’s 500,000 views in just under 5 years since this version of AO started on about 1st April 2007. There was an earlier version from late 2005 on a different host & format. I.E. over 100,000 per year, or over 8,000 per month. It used to be well over 10,000 per month but it’s slowed down because I have slowed down, but I might ramp it up a bit this year. My thanks to the regulars.

    Will I be hearing sky rockets from across the road in a few minutes Raymond?

    Yes, it’s already passed 500,000 – a day earlier than I expected. First blog in Bright to hit half a mill. Save Bright’s blog is the next most popular – about 500 views.
