For those unfamiliar with the ins and outs of blogging (by the way, we call you people "non-losers"),
Sitemeter is a service frequently employed to count visitors and provide other useful stats. In fact, some bloggers and sites choose to leave their Sitemeters public. In the interest of providing some transparency into site traffic for some of the blogs I link to, the table below includes the most recent daily traffic scores (daily unique visitors, averaged over the last week) as well as links to the Sitemeter display panels themselves.

I have no idea whether anyone else finds this interesting, but seeing how successful the big blogs are -- my guess is substantially higher than most newspapers -- we may have to redefine the term 'mainstream media' soon.
I wonder how the average visit length stacks up.
ReplyDeleteCurrently, my average visit length is 3 minutes, 49 seconds:

Doug, thanks -- very interesting. I've just made mine public.
ReplyDeleteSBVOR -- that's an awesomely long average visit length.
Jill,
ReplyDeleteThanks -- I enjoy your blog.
That was quite a climb in readership you witnessed from January through September:

You're doing something right!
Well, that makes me feel wholly
ReplyDeleteinadequate! : )
Bloggers must, like Blanche DuBois, depend on the kindness of strangers (like Doug and SBVOR -- thanks for the links!).
ReplyDeleteMachiavelli - just added you to my blogroll.
Thank you Jill, I will do the same!
ReplyDeleteAn interesting post, as is most everything you post on here. That said, I didn't realize I was on the list ever if only to anchor the bottom. lol. As I have long maintained, if it weren't for my parents and two in-laws, I'd be down to two or three hits a day.
ReplyDeleteAt any rate, thanks for including my (very, very, very) humble blog on your list Doug.
