Thanks for the Hits! June 2009 Traffic Numbers

Halfway through July and I haven’t even posted June’s traffic numbers? Sheesh!

As for content, I thought I was getting back into the writing groove in June. I had at least one article each week day until the end of the month hit and we got back into traveling, or people visiting on weekends. Plus, I realized I’m very behind in my school work and had to make the executive decision to do homework instead of write. Ugh. Only a few more months to go before I graduate!

Traffic Sources

At a high level:

Search Engines: 60% (up from 55% in May)

Referring Sites: 23% (down from 28%)

Direct Traffic: 17%
