Everyone has been talking about numbers lately. It seems contageous.
Out of curiosity, I went to Site Meter to see how many visitors I’ve had, and in four more visits I will hit 3000. Of course, this includes my own visits. When I get to shift from AOL to a dsl line, I will take myself out of the picture, but until then, my ever changing ISP number makes it a pain to edit my visits out.
I’m not sure of my exact start date with Site Meter, but I think we cranked it up about this time in June, so I figure it has been just about three months.
Bogie, I’m sure by now you have rolled over the 5,000 mark. Congrats, hon!
Arrrgh!!!
It's just my state of mind!
Congrats on hitting 3,000!
…heh…when I started my first blog 75% of my hits in the first week were me checking how many hits I had :^)…now (because bogie said I had to) my isp doesn’t count :^(…
Yeah….I discovered a while back it’s not kosher to count your own visits. And, like you, I visit frequently, because I use my own links to visit favorite blogs. Perhaps I can put my links into my favorites file and lower the number of times I visit my own blog. It would be easier than having to go to site meter everytime I log on to AOL.
If you want a visitor counter that can block your computer, you might want to try the free counter offered at GoStats.com
It blocks your computer using a cookie, therefore getting around that pesky dynamic IP problem. 🙂
