I just noticed that, according to Sitemeter, The Glittering Eye has had more than 50,000 visitors as of sometime this afternoon. It’s actually probably quite a bit more than that since for the first several months of operation I didn’t have Sitemeter set up correctly in some important templates. And Webalizer (a host-based usage stats program) tells me that I’ve had almost 140,000 visitors since start-up.
That’s fewer than top bloggers get in a normal day but I’m not in the least jealous of them. I like where I am and what I’m doing and IMNSHO that’s more than enough.
Thanks to all of my blog-friends and readers who visit The Glittering Eye. When you like something you’ve read, please tell other people about it. And y’all come back now.
Congrats Dave, you’re right on the daily stat count – having fun that yields quality rather quantity is best.
I’d rather be getting hits from osd.gov, mit.edu and have readers like yourself, Diplomad, Tom Barnett, TM Lutas, Andrew, Collounsbury and the like than have 40,000 hits a day from teen-agers wandering in from Google.
