Et Voilà ... Blog View Record

We are patting our own backs this week at PC Towers ......

Landmark Congratulations And Jubilations

.... this because we apparently reached, and then surpassed, a small web landmark.

Yes, we seemingly reached, and then passed the 500,000 blog views landmark. Who would have thunk it .... more than half a million hits. WOW ..... but of course there's a catch.

A couple of weeks ago, we were still 10,000 views below that figure, which to be honest, at about 100 - 200 hits a day, meant the 500,000 figure was some time off being reached. But then ....
  • Pageviews today 6,735
  • Pageviews yesterday 6,190
  • Pageviews last month 16,937
  • Pageviews all time history 505,385 

..... happened yesterday, and again today. 'Et Voilà' .... record passed.

I assume that some sort of Spamming or DOS attack occurred, which didn't impact the actual posts viewed, but triggered the view counter.

Now I will probably never know when the real 500,000th visit occurs (but probably sometime sooner rather than later) .... so I may as well celebrate this small web event today.

    1. Many thanks. As I said the figures are somewhat distorted by the strange events last week. it wasn't one post going 'viral' (I have only had one post ever do a mini viral when it got 3,000 hits in one day), in fact no posts showed any unusual activity. Still I got a cheap post out of it, so not all bad!!

  2. Well done! No-PC deserves many more readers than it apparently gets and maybe one day they will come...

    I think your supporting cheerleaders are in a Quantum state of multi-positional flux - their moves don't seem to be of this Universe. It may be a lingering symptom of the cyber attack?

All comments are welcomed, or even just thanks if you enjoyed the post. But please make any comment relevant to the post it appears under. Off topic comments will be blocked or removed.

Moderation is on for older posts to stop spamming and comments that are off topic or inappropriate from being posted .... comments are reviewed within 48 hours. I don't block normal comments that are on topic and not inappropriate. Vexatious comments that may cause upset to other commentators, or that are attempting to espouse a particular wider political view, are reviewed before acceptance. But a certain amount of debate around a post topic is accepted, as long as it remains generally on topic and is not an attempt to become sounding board for some other cause.

Final decision on all comments is held by the blog author and is final.

Comments are always monitored for bad or abusive language, and or illegal statements i.e. overtly racist or sexist content. Spam is not tolerated and is removed.

Commentaires ne sont surveillés que pour le mauvais ou abusif langue ou déclarations illégales ie contenu ouvertement raciste ou sexiste. Spam ne est pas toléré et est éliminé.
