I know, I know. I said I wasn’t going to blog for a couple of weeks, but then Roy wrote this super amazing review for Beneath the Satin Gloves, and WordPress made this nifty annual report, so…hey guys!
As I read this report, a case of the warm fuzzies took over and I felt the urge to take a moment to share, because it’s fun, but also to thank all of you for your unmatched, unparalleled, and unbelievable support for this blog of mine.
Your comments, shares, and likes make my day every single day. Visitors come from every corner of the globe and it astounds me…and quite suddenly, I’m a writer incapable of words.
You can check out the full report if you want to.
But, just in case you’re feeling lazy…here are some cool highlights.
- In 2012, I had 6,300 views! Not too shabby considering it launched at the end of May.
- Friends from 72 countries stopped by, but the top three countries were…the USA, Australia, and the UK.
- One of my most popular posts was Style vs. Materialism. (The awesome side effect of this post? People find my website whilst searching for “materialism”…hmm, guess I’m a Material Girl after all.)
- A huge shout out to my top commenters…Letizia at Reading Interrupted, T.W. Dittmer, Dianne Gray, Gail at The Jotter’s Joint, and Carlos at cruzdelsur! I’m sending all of you a big, fat hug right now for all of your awesomeness. Readers, don’t forget to check out all of these superb blogs!
I never knew that starting this blog would be such an incredible experience, but I know it is because of you friends out there who make it all worthwhile – you guys rock!
THANK YOU again and please practice safe debauchery on NYE! Wishing you a year filled with light, love, and laughter.
Britt Skrabanek 
You’ve done a great job on your blog and published two books.
Grin big. You deserve it, Britt, and it couldn’t happen to better person.
Thank you so much for your amazing support! I am grinning big…my face hurts.
“safe debauchery” : it’s phrases like this one which make me just love your blog. Happy New Year, Britt, and thank you for making my own blogging experience so wonderful.
LOL! Glad to hear you liked that one, Letizia! Happy New Year to you…I’m so glad we’re blogger buddies.
Woo Hooo! Well done Britt! I’ve just finished my road trip and am ready to get back into the writing and blogging 😀
Woohoo is right! Thanks again for always being such a lovely supporter, Miss Dianne. Can’t wait to hear all about your road trip. Hugs!
Happy New Year, Britt! I love reading those reports; then again, statistics has always been a favourite subject of mine, haha. You did well in 2012! =D
LOL! Stats are fun, aren’t they? Happy New Year to you, friend!
I clicked over here from 4am writer – your life sounds fun and exciting! I don’t know any pro dancers 🙂 Good job with your books; I also have big book goals this week…here’s to a new year!
Hi, Amy! Thanks for stopping by. I love 4am writer’s blog…she rocks!
Thank you for all of your sweet words and good luck with your book dreams. Happy 2013!
Aww, thanks, Britt. You rock too. 🙂
Great stats, Britt. That’s really awesome. I ought to look at my stats more closely, so I have an idea where to direct my blog. One more thing to add on the list, I s’pose. Have a good one!
Yeah, stats can be fun and they can be distracting. When I first started blogging, I tried analyzing them WAY too much. Now I just take them as they are. If people stop by…well, that’s just swell.
