Sunday Post

 
A friend of mine is going to the Lansing Comic convention on Saturday and invited me to meet them over there. In other news... Maybe I don't understand how it works but my views are telling me I had over 100 thousand hits last week.

  1. Sounds like google messed something up. Unless you're using some other company to keep watch on that?

  2. Same thing happened to me that the traffic increases 10 folds. Maybe some bots crawled onto our pages.

  4. Yeah, I get a lot of hits and then I notice my post isn't even in the feed..and I went a little bonkers about it..like is my blog even showing up?

    Maybe I just need to relax..as in take a swim or something..but always something to worry about and all the fireworks in the neighborhood just make things more tense. Hope you have a great time at the convention❤️❤️❤️❤️💙💙💙💙

  5. Hiiiii, I'm back! I caught up with Camping, and it's still going strong (also To Love Is Human). Have fun at your convention!

  6. Over 100,000 hits? That's awesome. I don't know how it works and I'm always pleasantly surprised about my hits too, so if you figure it out, please let me know.

    If you end up going to the ComicCon, share all the goods!! Have an amazing weekend :)

  7. I went from my usual 7K-8K hits a month to almost 20K over the last week. I looked at the country origin and the extras are all from Singapore. At first I thought it was because of the Tiger Mom's Tale book because part of it is set in Singapore, but that post has my usual hits of around 500, and none of my other posts have extra numbers, so they all must be going to the blog itself. Unless it's on a really old post. Weird. They've been slowly declining over the last couple of days. Check and see what country they are coming from. 🤔

    I'd love to see photos from the Comicon. 📷

    Have a wonderful new week. ☀

  8. Look at you, Mr. Popularity. Alright! Are you going to the con? I have never been to any other than book cons.

  9. Maybe you're just that popular, Greg! Have a great weekend. :D

  10. Nice lofi music! And lol, what on earth is a kiss-off.

  11. Whoa! 100 thousand hits last week, congrats!

    ReplyDelete
  12. And I was happy with the 4K hits I got a week ago Friday.

    Seriously, I take hit counts with a grain of salt, especially since I can look at Blogger and see that a post has X hits, but it is only show me that it has Y hits in the rankings. And the difference is always some made up amount. I don't get it.

    But I'm approaching a hits milestone, which I will still celebrate.

  13. I guess you have become internet famous, I'm happy if I get 100.

  14. Do you link your posts on social media, and did anything get shared by someone with a big following by any chance? Couple times that has happened to me, it was a case where some big author or publisher linked a review on Twitter and boom.

  15. I hope you'll have a lot of fun on Saturday and congrats on the news!

  16. Congrats on the views! Hope you have fun at the comic convention. Have a great week!

  17. Not to burst your bubble, but sudden stat increases like that could mean a bot/spam thing. I'm not sure how Blogger works but if you can see the country the stats came from, and it's not the U.S., that's probably what it is. Ugh, but if not, congrats!

    ReplyDelete
  18. I don't understand the stats either. It seems so random, but I have noticed more bots lately. Hope you enjoyed Comic Con

  19. Enjoying your Golden Age music.

  20. Hope you had fun at the convention! And I also don't always understand the stats, but congrats either way :)

  21. I hope you had fun at the comic convention, Greg! My husband's been wanting to go to the one in San Diego for awhile now. Maybe one of these years he will make it! I hope you have a great week.

  22. 100 thousand?! Wowzers! That's awesome!! Have a great week! :-)

    ReplyDelete
  23. That’s an incredible number of hits Greg! Congrats!

  24. Love the escape to a cabin! I have never exactly understood the whole page view thing, so I never know what to actually think mine is. Hope you had fun at the comic convention!

  25. Views are weird sometimes...lol. Have a great week and happy reading!

  26. I hope the Comic con is fun. Stats are a funny thing. I watch them but they are not always helpful.

  27. That Genesis song is a good one. I'm definitely adding it to my playlist!

    ReplyDelete
  28. Hope you enjoyed the convention! I will get the odd day where I have several thousand views - I figure it's some sort of bot situation!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Wow, so many hits! Enjoy! Have a great week.

    ReplyDelete
  30. I just checked my views. I think mine are screwy too. Over 700 views yesterday when I didn't post anything seems unlikely. I hope you enjoyed the convention. Come see my week here. Happy reading!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Wow, that's a lot of hits! Hope you had fun at the comic convention.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I have never heard of a blog getting over 100,000 hits in one day. Wow!

    ReplyDelete
  33. I usually figure a big jump like that was a bot attack, but it's more fun to think you've suddenly gone viral! :-) Thanks for sharing the cabin lo-fi; I enjoyed it.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Judging by the list of comments that's not unlikely but that is still a lot, maybe something else going on.

    ReplyDelete
  35. My hits are way down from my early days. Even the bots aren't interested in my blog! :D

    ReplyDelete
  36. 100,000 hits just last week. Geez, Greg, can I have your autograph. Can I say I knew you when? :)

    ReplyDelete
  37. I LOVE comic cons. I hope to go to Fanexpo Toronto in August.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Have fun at comic con! I had that happen a year or two ago and I'm pretty sure it was bots though I would love to believe that I was super popular for a little while! I hope you're having a great week!

    ReplyDelete
  39. That is a crazy jump in stats. Hopefully it only means good things. I hope you had fun at the con.

  40. I hope you had a great time at Comic Con. Anything Walking Dead related that was interesting, let me know. :-)
