This post has been on my mind for quite some time now. So bear with me and cooperate, if you would.
If you scroll down the blog and look on the right side, you'll see two companies that offer tracking blog visitors (Sitemeter and Map Loco). Through those, I am able to view the locations of people who look at this blog. Fascinating, I tell you, absolutely fascinating where some people are viewing this blog from. And most of the time, I can see how they arrived at this blog. Some people go straight to the website, i.e. it is bookmarked, and some people arrive at this blog by happenstance, either by visiting someone else's blog that is following me, or by keyword entries in search engines that pick up on the text in this blog.
Nonetheless, my feeble attempt at being technical regarding this blog isn't what's important.
Most of the visitors are a mystery to me and I'd love to know: How did you stumble upon this blog (Charlotte, NC)? Why do you keep coming back (Mountain View, CA)? Do I know who you are and just don't remember mentioning the blog to you (Scranton, PA)?
Here's where I'd like some cooperation. I would love to know who is visiting this blog. Who am I reaching (Dunellon, FL)? Who's my audience (Pensacola, FL)? I started this because frankly, I don't develop pictures and turning this into a book each year was my solution. I do have minor concerns about posting pictures and personal info about our family on the www for the world to see, so I have considered putting a password protect on the blog.
Do this if you would, email me or leave a comment with your name and location (and any other comments you might have). I'm very interested to see who responds and see how the first 2 years of blogging have gone.
I'm Lauren. And I love you as a sister in Christ, a friend, and quite frankly, I am jealous that you have it all together, even with 3 kiddos! And I love reading what you and the Littles are up to - because our too infrequent chats just can't squeeze all of the updates in!
ReplyDeleteOh, and I am from about one and a half miles from you - no where near as exciting as CA...
I found you because you found me...Loved the brief visit here tonight! I think Ocala is every bit as exciting as some places in CA...
