The best of Chair Blog November, 2012

Still based on our Feedburner stats.

For the first time in many months I’ve not posted the Half October- Half November top posts as I was still busy with our new Dutch blog about the city I live in: The Hague which also in the first half of November took a lot of my time. Its pace has been set now and less of my time is required. So I can pick up posting here again.

In return I’ve smuggled a bit, because I’ve counted one October post, number 1, as a November post.

So less posts than would be normal. Less posts also because I’ve still not finished the revamping the lay out of the site with a new version of the Thesis theme for WordPress. I’m still going backward an forward: When you see blue links, we’re back at Thesis version 1.8.5. When you see red links we’re on Thesis theme 2.0.2.

Google Analytics shows the following for November:
Visits: 30,926 vs 44.787 (-32.0%) in the corresponding prior period.
Pageviews: 71,735 vs 103.929 (-31,0%).

I don’t know what happened: All of a sudden, after a peak of almost 8,000 pageviews on November 8, manly due to our Sam Tailor Wood post which now ranks second in our all time favorite posts, Google started to send less and less people to us after November 14, 2012. Daily pageviews dwindled from 2,500 to over 3,000 to roughly around 1,000 thereafter. Again a new algorithm by Google? I wouldn’t know.

And some Miscellaneous stats:

• 316 vs 304 followers on Chair Blog | Tumblr
• 2,327 vs 2,218 likes on FaceBook
• 737 vs 656 followers on Pinterest

Stay tuned!
