Bold Readers are the Best Readers - A Big Thank You!
November 5, 2007
I want to personally thank each and every one of our readers.
Last month, our stats went up like crazy!
Unique visitors up by 126%
Visits up by 121%
Pageviews up by 109%
New visits are up to 88.19% (a 2.43% increase) - this is where i like this number to be.
Our search engine traffic increased by 246% percent, making 40% of our visits comprised of search engine referrals. Which is nice, because even though I love StumbleUpon, I wanted to reduce its percentage and increase other referrals.
Last but not least, I want to thank these bloggers for linking to us and sending us traffic:
Our local buddy Phil, who knows everyone and helped me find a great mechanic
Donna Fontenot, a must-read blogger who interviewed me
Marty Weintraub at aimClear blog, who let me guest blog for him
Andrea Morris at Write Ideas Marketing
Pat B. Doyle on her making money online blog
Michelle Capots at the Livingston Buzz blog
David Kam at Marketing Deviant
Prying1, who mostly writes about politics, wrote about the Adbaaz craziness
Matthew Sherborne at his Marketing Strategy blog
These organic links sent 136 direct referrals - and since linking helps in the search engines, they also helped optimize our site!
68 referrals came from commenting on other blogs, which ProBlogger Darren Rowse wrote about today. I’d like to increase my comments, but only when I really have something to offer. I’ve been whizzing through my feeds lately, and I want to take time to participate in the conversation. But it will be interesting to see if it increases traffic to the blog as well.
