Is blog. Is 9
Today, this blog is nine years old. As is tradition, I like to look at the numbers:
30,957 posts
2,240,456 words
132,767 comments
11,220 tweets (5 of which are non-blog posts)
11,888,139 page views
6,202,916 visits
9,932 average page views per day
4,260 average visits per day
3:16 the average time, in minutes, a reader hangs around
Most visited page is the main page
In the past year, new visitors up 38%
479,506 unique visitors this year.
Most common referral is direct, meaning it’s bookmarked or accessed directly.
Top five referring sites in the last year that aren’t search engines: Instapundit, Tam, Snowflakes in Hell, Sharp as a Marble, and Breda.
Top 5 search terms this year that aren’t some variation of ‘sayuncle’: viewsonic g tablet review, sons of guns, s&w tacpen, akins accelerator, and atf shotgun ruling.
Most visited and commented on post this year: Getting back at TSA. Some how, the comments there became an internet meme. Fitting that my most visited post was visited for what other people say.
Most of you use firefox.

You should fix that last number. It needs to be much higher. Pistol whipped is also acceptable to include in said category.

Outstanding. Hope for another nine in whatever incarnation the net takes us.

Nine Year and NO HIPPIES PUNCHED?????? What kind of wussified blog is this? This outrageous oversight must be corrected immediately.
Wait a sec… Hold on…… OK, change that number to ONE!
Seriously, Congrats Uncle!

If I print out the main page, roll it up and slap a hippy with it does that count?

Congrats and thank you!!! If I had to narrow down my RSS reader to one blog it would be Sayuncle!!! You are the reason I became a Libertarian and I am the offspring of hippies….
