I am Back!

September 28, 2002

Wow

That's it. Just wow. I've only started this blog back in August, and thanks to the Great Glenn who linked to me a few days ago, my hits have gone through the roof. Take a look at this graph:





On September 23, I was averaging about 35 to 40 impressions a day by the Counted stats(the "counted" bitmap at the bottom of the blogroll). I spiked a bit when Glenn linked to me for the McAfrica burgers, but that was on a weekend, in the middle of the summer, so it didn't spike anywhere near as much as it is now, though at the time, I thought it was the bees knees. Compared to the traffic I'm receiving now, it would barely twitch in comparison. The Bravenet counter numbers are similarly incredible too. Two weeks of minimal activity, followed by an explosion.

For a lot of you established bloggers, who get a few thousand hits a day as a matter of routine, this must seem like no big deal. However, prior to this week, on a good day I would get a 60 visitors and be happy about it. Now, I have received three times more visitors since tuesday than I have since I started the blog.

Wow. And thanks..

Update: I had to dump the bravenet table of hits. The HTML was becoming a pain, and I want to write posts, not play around with HTML all day.

Great work. Keep it up!

By the way are you the same John Bono who posts often on the Independent's comments site?
