I know it’s a silly thing to do, but I sometimes like to look at the visitor stats for this website – as well as for the buns’ website and Amanda’s blog.
Of course, sometimes these statistics are a bit depressing – but that’s neither here nor there. For “entertainment purposes,” here are some recent statistics:
“Home Page” visits in the last 30 days | Visits since Amanda started her blog | Last month total visits (all pages) | |
Bunnies | 1,134 | 341 | 2,482 |
Me (Core Dump) | 405 | 153 | 8,941 |
Amanda’s Blog | 108 | 113 | 189 |
As you can see, the Bunnies are clearly the most popular overall. I get more “total” page views because I have over 1,000 posts stretching back several years which cover a lot of different topics. (My post on Manual vs. Automatic is still the #1 page, with my Desktop Madness series being next in line thanks to Google Image Search.)
But Amanda is really coming up strong – since starting her blog less than a month ago, she’s had nearly the same number of visits to her site as I have in the same time period. Amazing!
I think I’ve created two blogging monsters!
Could they be the same visitors?
Probably not; these were “unique visitors” as reported by Google Analytics, which I trust is pretty good at actually detecting “unique” visitors (as opposed to the same person visiting again and again). At least, to an acceptable margin of error, I suppose.
