September’s almost over, isn’t it? That means I really ought to do the August traffic report, so I don’t fall any farther behind. We had about 45,000 hits in August, a nice rebound from the doldrums of July but still behind the heights of May and June. A link from Kevin Drum is always a big traffic driver, and I got one of those last month.
As for my overall totals, as I’m on my second blog location and third Sitemeter counter, it’s not really possible to say for sure. I’m over 600,000, but that’s about as exact as it gets. Needless to say, whatever the number is I’m very happy with it, and I thank you all for coming by.
