For each of the six years I have been blogging, I have posted a fairly geeky post about my progress and numbers. It’s something I look forward to, and it helps me get an idea of what the next year might look like.
Posts and Other Numbers
| 2014 | 2015 | 2016 | 2017 | 2018 | 2019 | |
| Posts | 158 | 124 | 71 | 64 | 112 | 41 |
| Sessions | 2899 | 7081 | 2700 | 2277 | 3545 | 7388 |
| Users | 1262 | 5108 | 1691 | 1334 | 2795 | 6235 |
| Page Views | 9790 | 13586 | 7009 | 7925 | 9888 | 14355 |
Not surprisingly, my post numbers were down. There were long stretches of time when I didn’t write. Additionally, over the summer I redid the website, which took all of my time.
However, I am shocked by the uptick in users and page views. The new website is nice, but I’m not sure what else could be doing that. This year analytics reports I had an lot of “organic search” results, but also a lot of “bounces.” Oh, well.
Data Trends
As you can see, unlike last year, the trend is going up.
