1398

I'm currently averaging 1398 visits per day on my blog. Of course, I can't trust this blog's site tracker; it's much more generous, in how it counts visits, than SiteMeter ever was. I'd say it's about 2-3 times more generous, in fact, so if I split the difference and divide 1398 by 2.5, I get a much more reasonable-sounding 559 daily visits. Years ago, when I used SiteMeter, I never saw my daily average go above about 400 unique visits per day, so for me to rocket up from 400-ish to nearly 1400 visits over the course of a decade (during which I've done little to change my blogging style and thus widen my appeal) seems, well, not quite right.

That said, I'll give myself a weak pat on the back for having increased my traffic ever so slightly over the years. If I ever managed to top 10,000 visits per day, per my current site tracker, then I might have a real reason to celebrate.

John Mac, meanwhile, is celebrating fifteen years of blogging.
