It never fails to amaze me. This website is, for lack of a better description, an I-Love-Me affair where I post things that I want to remember or stuff that I like. Yet, on average, 635 people visit daily, which means over 2000 daily page views, or 12000+ daily hits. Now slashdot this ain&#8217;t, but it&#8217;s still fairly impressive :) Also, considering that the blog is crossposted to FB, the actual usage stats might actually be higher. People stumble onto my website from all over the world. <\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s even more interesting though, are the google search terms that people use to wind up on my blog.
