I hit 1,000,000 pageviews yesterday! Yay!
As you can see from the time frame above, it took me five years to get to 1,000,000. And really, this website is actually over ten years old. I only installed Google Analytics on it five years ago, so I have no clue when we officially hit 1,000,000 pageviews…
Of course, some bloggers get this every month of the year, but still, we all have to start somewhere… if you are just getting started, or have been blogging for a few years, keep at it. I would say that for the first five years or so, I averaged about 10 pageviews a day. Then for the next three years, I got about 40 per day. Finally, about two years ago (in January 2011), I figured out a few things about blogging, and things have been steadily increasing since then.
Here are some of the top blog posts and pages at the time of this writing:
- Writing Tips from C. S. Lewis (This post accounts for that HUGE spike in the middle of my chart. This post went viral.)
- Human Trafficking Must Stop
- The Daily Writing Routine of C. S. Lewis
- C. S. Lewis Did Not Like Church
- Matthew 12:31-32 – The Unpardonable Sin
- Luke 7:31-35 – Be Childlike, Not Childish
- Help! I’m Lost and I Can’t Find Myself!
- 31 Million Sex Slaves
- Crucifixion – The Physical Suffering of Jesus
Interestingly, there seems to be a theme here… Most of the top posts are about C. S. Lewis, Human Trafficking, and the Unpardonable Sin.
Thank you for reading this blog. I really appreciate each and every one of you!
