I've been blogging more regularly and it's pretty cool to see that I get 1k visitors a day according to @Netlify Analytics

I think at some point I have to switch my mailing list cadence from once-a-month to something more regular. But feels weird to email out *every* post.

i'm currently at ~2k visitors/day according to @Netlify Analytics. April data looks suspicious.

People really like me in Germany! lol

and TIL that Chris Coyier linked me in @Css!!!!!!!!! https://css-tricks.com/react-single-file-components-are-here/

*success kid

i did get a spike of ~16k for the Coronavirus post https://twitter.com/swyx/status/1236527625469857793?s=20

i dont want that kind of traffic, i am not a doom n gloom blogger

Mid Jun @netlify analytics checkin. huge spike of 50k visitors for the js third age post, back to 1k uniques/day now. the 500k "referrals" from direct traffic looks funky.

july checkin. weird big spike on july 3 - looks like someone put my Career Ladders post up on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23715871 and that was good for about 7.5k uniques.

i really kinda itch for GA-style analytics :(

aug highlights:

- slack/discord post went belatedly viral, drawing in 40k readers
- another @css shoutout: https://css-tricks.com/deeper-dx/
- Luck post doing well, but still early. has potential to be LIP -level.

bandwidth chart looks weird

Sept checkin - a quieter month, no big hits. Singapore visitors randomly taking #2 spot

October numbers - 37k unique visitors

the Svelte for Sites, React for Apps post did best, predictably. ~10k of those were sent to my @ThePracticalDev mirror.
