I’m a little slow at noticing things, and I just came across this cool report that WordPress puts together for bloggers. Thought I’d post it, since Im also slow in writing another new post, and thank everyone of you who have visited my site and read my ramblings. Also, a ton of thanks to you who take the time to comment or even click the like button. I know blogging takes a lot of our time, including keeping up with each other’s blogs, so thanks a bunch.
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 25,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 9 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.

Hey, I’m your third highest commenter! Cheers to a great 2011!
I know, Leah! Isn’t that great? Thank you so much.
What a pleasant surprise that report must have been! Apparently not everyone got, nor will get that report, so isn’t it nice that you did!
I assumed that WordPress did that report for everyone, Margie. I’m surprised they don’t.
Apparently the report goes to only a select few. No one seems to know what the criteria is, but perhaps it includes blogs that were Freshly Pressed!?
I don’t know the criteria, Margie. Interesting.
Congrats on your stats! I had to read about the tree house. 🙂
Thanks for reading my tree house post. It’s one of my favorites.
Congratulations on a blog very well-done. 🙂
Thanks, Bella. That means a lot coming from a writer who has one of the most beautiful and beautifully written blogs in the blogosphere.
You’re not the only one; I just found my 2011 annual report on WordPress a few days ago too! Better late than never, I guess. 😉
I know; isn’t it cool, Mama? Plus it’s a good filler on a day you don’t have time to write or can’t think of a topic.
How exciting! Congratulations, Susan! Thank you for posting so many wonderful stories and beautiful pictures. It’s a lot of work, I feel lucky to be one of your readers.
No, thank You for reading and commenting. A blog is nothing without readers like you, Amy.
It takes a few minutes for us to read your post, but days for you to generate ideas, prepare photos, and the writing… Lots of dedications, I admire you! Have a resting weekend.
Thanks, Amy. I do enjoy mt blog-free weekends.
Where’d you find that then?? 🙂
I read a little sentence I saw sitting on my dashboard that asked me if I wanted to see my site stats, etc. for the year. I’m sure that sentence has been there for awhile, but I just noticed it. So look carefully on your dashboard, Eye, because it should be on yours, too.
I knew it all along. You’re a world class contralto moonlighting as a blogger. Congratulations on both counts.
Yes, Al, younfound me out. When I figure out YouTube, I’ll treat you to my singing.
Congratulations on your wonderful stats and success with your blog. I look forward to another year of visiting and enjoying your fabulous blog. Well done! 🙂
Thanks, EC. You have been one of my most faithful readers and commenters.
Congratulations on an outstanding year on WP! Add to that you being a NaNoWriMoWinner for 2011. I aspire to your statistics!!
I would like to spend more time reading blogs, thoug, Carol. It’s hard to find time to balance both the writing and the reading, but the reading is as important as the writing.
Gotta love those stats helper monkeys at WordPress. Looks like you had a banner year. 🙂
Thanks, Robin. As I said, I just need a filler!
