Update on Blog Statistics

Weekend Update

From time to time we try to give you an update on some statistics about the blog. The figures that follow are for the last 30 day period, ending on Friday, June 15 at midnight.  Each number represents a unique computer "hit" for the blog, meaning  that each number represents a visitor to the blog, but is not counted again if they visit the blog more than once in a 24 hour period. 

Country Location                                                                         Number of visitors

United States                                                                                 1,496

United Kingdom                                                                           248

Canada                                                                                           99

Czech Republic                                                                              98

Malaysia                                                                                         54

There were 11 other countries that showed up on the count, however the program I use does not list them in the monthly totals unless they reach the minimum of 50 visits. The blog is averaging 247 hits per day, with the peak day during the last month on May 24, when we re-posted by request, the blog message, "Go With What You Have."

All this to say thanks to everyone who stops by to read the blog. I hope you find something here that is a benefit to you in your daily walk, and always a glory to God.

Allow me to again point out the +1 that is at the bottom of each blog.  Clicking on the +1 is what keeps that particular blog message moving up on the Google search engine.  It is a vote saying you like the blog, but also is a calculation of the visitors that came to read it and gave their approval by clicking the +1.  I am noticing several recent blogs are moving up higher in the Google search engine when you search ronbwriting.  For this I am grateful. Your comments on the blog are always welcome.

Also, we currently have 22 that have indicated they wished to be a follower of the blog. Those numbers are helpful, too.  As they grow and more people "follow" the blog, it is one of the calculations taken into consideration by those are representatives of the publishing industry, in booking speaking engagements, and in building a "platform" of subjects, beliefs, truths, expressed in the blogs. 

I will be honored and appreciative of those who click on the +1 (current or past blog messages still count,) and for those who become followers of the blog.  It only takes a minute to register with Google and your information is always safe. 

This weekend we celebrate Father's Day and I just have to say some things about my dad. I was one of those fortunate kids that grew up in a home where mom and dad saw the necessity of proper upbringing (some of it stuck), a good foundation in spiritual matters including church attendance and Bible study, and in teaching by example as well as instruction.  They were not perfect, but they knew the Lord and loved the association of their Christian family. My salute to dad, still my hero to this day, and also to mom, still the heroine I hold close in my heart.   God bless.
