sMoRTy71 keeps growing
Well, it has been about 6 months since I first launched sMoRTy71.com. As with most blogs, I do the site mainly for myself. However, looking at the site usage stats over the past 6 months, I am surprised to see that there are a lot (at least it seems like a lot to me) of people visiting.
In May 2004, I had only 22 visits from 3 unique visitors. That number has been steadily growing ever since. In November 2004, I had 3601 visits from 1335 unique visitors.
I figured that much of that traffic came from Google; however, that's not the case. Only 14% of traffic comes from search engines. The vast majority, 70%, comes from a direct address or a bookmark. Who are all of these people?
I guess I shouldn't worry about it. I'm just glad to know that other people enjoy this site, too.
