Best of Chair Blog in 2011

For this post I don’t rely on Feedreader, but on our Woopra stats.

According to Woopra we had 634,322 unique visitors who visited Chair Blog 1,066,901 times and generated 1,227,821 pageviews in 2011.

I’ve split the post in those posted in 2011 and those posted earlier, but only taking into account the 2011 stats. It is clear that posts have to “ripen” before they take off as the oldies are doing better than the newbies. Or it could be the hits as main post don’t count in 2011. Kind of strange. Most curious if in 2012 we can count one of the 704 2011 posts between the golden oldies…
