Noodling on site analytics
Feb. 27th, 2008 01:45 pmAccording to Google Analytics, websnark's currently operating at about 60k pageviews for the past month, representing 22k "absolute unique visitors."
Which isn't a patch on the old days by any stretch (it was running around 60k pageviews a day for a while there), but better than being hit by fish any way you look at it. And there's been a significant spike over the last week and a half, no doubt fueled by my actually fucking writing. Good healthy new visit rate too.
Reasonably? It won't get near the old numbers. There's too much healthy diversity in that space at that point, and it's a very different world. But it's a good solid group of readers, and that makes me a happy King.
On the other hand, I wrote about James Grant and Mel Hynes on the same day I eulogized William F. Buckley. I'm anticipating a meteor killing me.
