Behind The Scenes At The Major’s Life Blog

We’ve just entered the 4TH full month of action here on this blog at WordPress. Our official launch date was December 01ST 2007, but we had a week-long ‘soft opening’ during the final 7 days of November 2007. Before that this blog existed on MySpace for about 6 months, and those 300+ blog entries are still available for viewing online here.

Here are some additional ‘Fun Facts’:

  • After the popular search engines Travis Johnson’s blog sends this blog the most traffic. There’s a large drop-off after his blog.
  • Mondays and Tuesdays generate the heaviest traffic on this blog by far. There’s about a 20% drop-off in blog traffic on Wednesdays and Thursdays compared with the Monday / Tuesday juggernaut.
  • ‘The Chris Day Club’ was an instant ‘out-of-the-box’ smash hit on this blog. It’s one of my few original ideas. I stole many of the ideas that make up this blog from Travis Johnson.
  • ‘Bedtime Stories’ has become the biggest smash hit of them all here on this blog. It too is an original idea of mine. I need to come up with more original ideas !
