Hit 5,000 page views

Okay, so my blog is a micro-blog. Or maybe it doesn't even qualify as a micro-blog. Whatever. I've hit 5,000 page views. My per year/month totals are as follows:

2007: 126

2008: 146

2009: 1,852

2010

Jan: 325

Total: 5,037

My top 5 blogs based on unique page views:

Toonerville Blog: 291

Brandi Emma, Shakers, Mulhollands: 51

Spider Problem: 46

Pu$$y Cow, Mo-odds, Madison Bloodbath: 45

Seamonsters, Venus Illuminato, Muddy Reds: 40

So as you can see, none of my blogs get huge hits. Though most people tend to go directly to my front page: 645

A lot of of folks come to my blog via links (which I do appreciate), but here are some of the top searches that lead to my blog:

Notes from Vivace: 52

Pu$$y Cow: 40

Toonerville Gang: 29

Dre Day Stab City: 23

Chris Pine: 10

The Notes from Vivace probably comes about via my blogs that pop up on Intraffik. Pu$$y Cow is one of my favorite bands. I did a couple posts on Toonerville awhile back -- someone has linked to one of the blogs so it constantly gets viewed. Dre Day is an annual event that Pu$$y Cow puts on and Stab City played one of the shows. Chris Pine popped up in a dream I had, which resulted in people coming to my blog -- I feel a little guilty for that as folks were no doubt disappointed after they clicked on the google link.

Final notes: Only about 21% of my readers are return readers. I suspect that number should be higher.

I will be posting when I get to 10,000.
