My Stats are Off the Chart
It’s time to check my stats again since for the past three months I have completed challenges. This Ultimate Blog Challenge will be my fourth monthly challenge in a row. Because of all my posts my stats are off the chart.
In April 2019 I hit the 100,000 Milestone in blog views. It took me a little over 4 years from the time I started my blog to reach this many views. I was so excited when I saw the number! This is the blog I wrote on my 100,000 Milestone!
When I checked my April 2020 stats after the Ultimate Blog Challenge, once again I was dumbfounded. In about a year’s time my views jumped to 140,500! It took me 4 years to get 100,000 views and only a year to get 40,500 more! This is my blog about my April 2020 Challenge Stats
Now this is where it gets unbelievable. After the April 2020 Ultimate Blog Challenge where I ended with the 140,500 views I participated in the May Song of the Day Challenge and in the June Color of the Day Challenge.
I was mentioning to my granddaughter that I would like to get to 150,000 during the July Ultimate Challenge. Well that will not happen! When I checked my stats half way through June, I HAD HIT 150,000 VIEWS! In about six weeks I managed to gather up almost 10,000 views!!
When I checked my stats the end of June just before this July Ultimate Blog Challenge began I was up to 153,505. That’s an increase of 3.005 in 13 days. I know I mentioned this in one of my other blogs where I checked my stats but I remind myself of my grandfather who use to track all the scores from the baseball teams during the World Series!
Needless to say I was quite impressed with how my stats have grown and as I’ve said over and over it’s because of you, my viewers who visit, comment, and share my blogs. Thank you all for helping me reach my goals!
I went a bit further and checked my average daily views and I reached my all time high in the month of June 2020 with an average of 273 blog views.
I have always been pleased with how my monthly stats have steadily increased and especially during the Ultimate Blog Challenge months. But when I saw how June jumped over 3000 views from May 31 I was shocked. What does this tell me? The more I post, the more my blogs are seen, shared and seen even more.
One reason I have had such an increase is because of the number of blogs I wrote during the past two months. I always post at least 30 during the UBC months but I participated in two challenges back to back since the April Ultimate Blog Challenge. For the May Song of the Day Challenge I posted 41 blogs and for the June Color of the Day Challenge I posted 43 blogs. Of course Lia had a big part in the increase as she wrote her Friday Story Time by Lia every week!
I am in my 5th year of the Ultimate Blog Challenge, I have July and October to complete for my 5 year pin! Oh wait there is no pin but I’ll still be excited that I hopefully will have completed 20 Ultimate Blog Challenges in a row!
I am excited to see so many newbies this month in the challenge and Lia is ready to share her love and smiles to all. I love a challenge of any kind and I’m so glad I found the UBC back in January 2016. Lia will be busy writing her Friday Stories about her baking, garden and just fun times and I will be busy with a variety of topics plus can’t forget Wordless Wednesday. If you missed my Wordless Wednesday for the start of the July Ultimate Blog Challenge, check it out and I’m sure it will bring a smile to your face. http://themarthareview.com/ready-set-go-its-wordless-wednesday/ I hope you enjoy the challenge half as much as I do and enjoy meeting new bloggers and viewing, sharing, and commenting on their blogs as they will do with yours. Check your stats before and after and see how they changed. I never thought I would say that my stats are off the chart!
Wow! Martha your stats are great. And you are growing. Congrats on having over 100,000 views. That is a big deal in itself.
Thanks Brenda, I was a bit shocked when I saw they jumped over 150,000 in mid June!
Wow! Martha your stats are great. And you are growing. Congrats on having over 100,000 views. That is a big deal in itself.
I was surprised when I saw them Brenda! I’ll be working on my next goal now!
Love this! I’m back in this challenge because I’ve seen a drop in my blog over the last few years. That could also be to my not blogging. This post inspired me to be more consistent and join in more often! Congratulations on your results!
I’m glad my post inspired you to blog more! It’s easy once you set your mind to it. There are days I struggle but I tell myself to keep pushing. I love a challenge. Thnks Katrina!
Congratulations, Martha!!! Those are amazing stats! Makes me think I should try more challenges.
Thanks Jeanine, when I did the other fun challenges, I never thought they would receive so much traffic!
Congrats!! I am so proud of you. C and I are off on another challenge for Homeschool this month. Disney A to Z Lesson Plans and sharing a character a day from a Disney Movie.
Thanks Glenda, I enjoyed the two challenges you and C put together! Sounds like C is enjoying homeschooling!
Very inspirational. I’m one of those “newbies” in this UBC.
Welcome to the challenge Nancy! I hope you enjoy it as much as I am. If you have any questions just give a shout!
Wow, Martha! I’m so impressed with your numbers. You write with such ease. And you are so kind and generous reading and commenting.
I was sorta shocked when I saw the rise in them Lily. But seems like once I have my topic and start writing, the words just spill out of my brain! I enjoy reading and commenting the other blogs, there are times I’ve got blog ideas from others!
This is inspiring! Thank you for sharing your stats etc so honestly and openly!
Thanks Helen, by adding the screen shots it shows my readers all they did to help me reach my goals!
congratulations!! and not surprising at all.. as always, you inspire
Thanks Vidya, I love a challenge but when I say my stats jump so high, I was a bit surprised but then I realized it was because of my great friends that visit all my blogs. Of course since Lia started her stories, she has jumped past mine on some posts. LOL
Keep writing and sharing. The more you do the more your stats improve.
That’s for sure Amanda. I never thought they would jump so much but it proves that the more you write the more the stats improve.
