Scott Cheatham’s Weblog

I’ve not really done much of a review of my data like I should when checking out my visitors and the most popular posts but I figured it might make a good review post given that these are the posts you’ve read the most.  Those of you on my Twitter stream, got an early preview of these posts yesterday (Tuesday) afternoon and evening..But for those who didn’t, here are the top 5 posts (by total views) that this blog has received in the last quarter.

#5 “Twitter Ego” I just posted this last week so I was surprised at the number of views it received so quickly.  I wasn’t really trying to criticize but merely make an observation as to what constitutes a good follower base for Twittering.

#4 “Circa Steno” The Levenger company has quite a following so this one didn’t surprise me.  People want to read others’ experiences with the products since most of them are purchased online.  I’m a big fan of Circa/Rollabind products and use them extensively so I like to share my thoughts on the products I buy.

#3 “Moleskine Fans on a Budget” My review of the Piccadilly notebook that pretty much clones the Moleskine.  Another no brainer in terms of views since the Moleskines have their own website and loyal following.

#2 “The Cussing Pastor” Ed Young’s video on pastors using what many term “mild” cuss words during their communication.  This has been a hot button issue that many have picked up on and in less than 11 days, this post shot to the number two spot on my views for the quarter.

And finally…the number one post in the past quarter…It was actually a bit of a surprise….

#1 “Piccadilly Sundial Agenda Review” My review at mid-June of the “Sundial Agenda” planner evidently was a hit with many.  In just over two weeks, this post received more views than any other in the past three months.  It is a pretty cool planner but I was really surprised at the total number of views this post received..and it’s still getting more.

When looking at just the just the past month, not much changed really other than my post on “Marketing Discipleship” came in at #4 for the month.  It bumped the “Circa Steno” review out but the other top four listed above remained.

So far the busiest day in my young blog’s life was in January when 204  people dropped by on a Wednesday (1-7-09) to check out the posts here.  And since I moved all of my blogging here 15 months ago, this past month has been the second highest month for total views next to January of this past year.

All of that to say “Thank You” for stopping by here.  I’m humbled that with so many choices to read these days, so many folks come by here to read and interact with the posts.  I’m grateful to have made so many new friends and look forward to many more years of fruitful blogging if God allows!  Have a great July!
