The first year of blogging was slow. I made a post a week, and got very few visitors. Here is my 50,000 visitor post from June 30th this year.
Things changed early this year as some of the bigger bloggers out there discovered me, and now I get between 200 and 300 visitors a day on average. I probably get a good 20-30% of visitors from Google searches. Number 100,000 was doing a "Steve Irwin atheist" search. There is no indication Stevo was an atheist, but obviously I am, and I wrote a tribute to him when he died.
Some of the word searches that have got me visitors are hysterical, but I haven't written them down, so you'll have to take my word for it.
Thanks to everyone, especially my regular visitors. You two know who you are:)
mazel tov!
ReplyDeleteyou say you're an atheist, then you say your a Zionist, what's up with that? i like your blog though =)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, BEAJ! I know I'm in for a good laugh most times when I visit, so thanks for the laughs and looking forward to many more in the coming year!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on joining the 100K club! Keep up the good blogging.
ReplyDeleteAnon, read up on my case for Israel.
ReplyDeleteThis blog is the mother of all shitty blogs bar none. The host is a disabled bipolar nut job. He is not a jew, but an Arab.
ReplyDeleteCongrats, BEAJ. Good product=good results. Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteI've meant to keep a list of hilarious search terms that led to my blog, but always forget. I did get a hit today from someone searching for "piece of shit pictures." Far as I know I've never posted a picture of such a thing(s), but there was the visitor.
Mike: piece of shit pictures here: www.theatheistjewslug.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteHey, congratulations. I'm suffering from a case of blog envy. I've been at it a year, still ain't quite broke 10,000.
ReplyDeleteKA, it took me about a year to crack 10,000.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Bacon!
ReplyDeleteI guess that means there is hope for me too.
Congrats, BEAJ! Classy beanery ya got here...
ReplyDeleteUm, "rickey" reminds me of "DRA." New friend of yours?
BEAJ:
ReplyDeleteHey, thanks, that's a shot in the arm!
Congratulations, BEAJ, that's a great milestone, I'm not there yet but I'm getting close. As for your points of view regarding G-d, I also struggle with my faith; in fact, this past week was a week in hell for me personally, which didn't prove that G-d did or did not exist but that's for another discussion. Oh well, why should I be exempt from pain and suffering, others suffer, why shouldn't I? Sometimes I think that my life would have been so happier if I had been closer to Him. How can you lose when G-d is in your corner? I know that when I am happy, that does not prove that G-d exists, and I know that when I am sad, that does not prove that G-d does not exist.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I personally am not an atheist, here's hoping you and I can both get closer to G-d in spite of what has happened to the both of us. Peace to you and your loved ones.
Smooth, my transcending into Atheism was a gradual process. The more I asked, the more I learned, the more I found there is no evidence of God, and no legitimate reason to believe in a God.....other than to give one false hope that someone has "better" answers than what is found in nature.
ReplyDeleteIf I'm going to get closer to God....it will be entirely up to him:)
Mazel tov, BEAJ!
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous that you hit 100K already and you started after me!
Thanks to everyone and Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteElder, you just don't do enough posts on Atheism:) And besides, Oink is probably responsible for about 500 of my hits.
You probably get people reading your posts longer than I do, and less Google hits.
