Blog stats - Feb 2007

Most writing blogs - like most blogs in general - are very coy about their traffic stats, but screenwriter and blogger John August is an exception. In a post about the impact of having one of his articles mentioned on the link-recommendation site, Digg, he has published his February blog stats. You can see why he's not shy: he's had more than 85,000 visits and 130,000 page views.

Still, in the interests of the free exchange of information this blog refuses to be cowed. Here's our monthly stats for February.

The industry standard measure, in fact, is monthly unique users (what Google Analytics calls Absolute Unique Users) - i.e. the number of different people who visit your site. This blog's total for February 2007 was 1,846.
