thetisblog is Celebrating Its Second Anniversary ~

Thanks to all the submitters and readers, it has been a very successful year!

Every day, all individual readers are counted.  Any device used is counted when it accesses the blog.  If the device is used more than once a day to view the blog, it is only counted as one visit.  All of these visits were people who searched specifically for the blog.

So, if you look at the blog twice a day for 30 days on one device, it is only registered as 30 visits, not 60.  Here are the statistics for the past year:

Average visits per month: 1,462; up from 564 last year

Average amount of pages viewed per month: 3331; up from 2,940 last year

Total visits this past year: 17,539; up from 6,783 last year

Total page views: 39,966; up from 33,640 last year

The way I read these statistics, is that more of you are using it more frequently, and not opening as many pages each time (perhaps due to the frequency).  Last year visitors looked at an average of 5 pages per visit, whereas this year, they’re looking at an average of just over 2. 

I am happy to know that it has succeeded in providing a place for folks to catch up on current happenings, and to source information integral to living and participating on Thetis, as that was my intention!

To celebrate thetisblog’s second anniversary, we’re holding a photo contest, looking for quintessential pictures of Thetis or our community.
