Celebrations!!

2008 August 20

Once upon a time, in a kingdom called the Internet, a girl used to blog at Blogspot. She had some blogger acquaintances who belonged to the enemy camp of WordPress. Over time they cajoled, tempted and persuaded her to change sides. On the auspicious day of her birthday, the girl moved to WordPress and never looked back since then. As on today her blog has registered 10,347 hits (and increasing) in less than two months, since she moved to WordPress. Adhering to the tradition of blogosphere, she celebrates crossing 10000 hits today. Yiipppeeee!!!!!!! It isn’t that there is some sort of competition or rivalry but still she can’t resist teasing a friend. For Nikhil who crossed 10000 hits in four months :twisted: Muhahahahahahahaha :P :P :twisted:

Moving on with the story and stealing the idea from Arvind, the busiest day on her blog was on 1st Aug 2008 with 352 views. I guess that would have been her most commented upon post on Blogging Friendship. The girl’s blog’s biggest referrer is Lallopallo who has directed 325 views to her blog. The girl expresses her heartfelt gratitude for having her on your blogroll. People searching for how to become fair skinned, “Love is” cartoon series and Kung Fu Panda have contributed the maximum number of hits to her blog. And her blog has directed maximum traffic to Shefaly!! Thank you to all my readers and lurkers!!

Continuing the celebrations, the girl got this “Brilliant Weblog Premio 2008″ award from Swathi and Nikhil and is supposed to pass it on to 8 bloggers. So choosing the best of the best (her blog roll) and those who haven’t got the award yet, the winners are Sakhi, Suda, Ishmeet, Poonam, Arvind, Mahak, Nova and Sayesha.

Last but not the least, before the present studies undertaken by the girl, the girl had been pursuing a Master of Engineering and got her final semester mark sheet few days back. She is now officially an Environmental Engineer.

    @ Reema:

    “..And her blog has directed maximum traffic to Shefaly!!..”

    That just goes to show that people still want _serious_ content. No? :-P

    http://jobprofiles.monster.com/Content/job_content/JC_engineering__construction__and_graphic_design/JSC_Environment/JOB_EnvironmentalEngineer/jobzilla_html?jobprofiles=1

    @Kris There is an option of import in dashboard>manage>import in which u can import ur posts and comments to wordpress blog. But it doesnt import videos. and dont delete the old blog as photos in posts will linked to it. Any other query ask me!

    @Shefaly :D it also shows your different blog name La Vie Quotidienne on my blog roll catches people’s attention more than your mention in my post(s?) :P

  26. 2008 August 21

    I wish I had net at my flat here. :(
    Every time I am so late that no girl remains to read my comment :(
    Bah, did I write *no girl*? Ohh I meant *no one* :P

  27. 2008 August 21

    Well, that is great! :) I got 10k hits in several months. By one year I had only abt 25k hits, I guess. But then I am a spordiac blogger. :) something I am not proud of. But I can say that 10k hits so soon is an ACHIEVEMENT, girl! You deserve all the awards you get.

    I never check where do I get most referrers from? Is there a link where I can check biggest referrer?

    Once again, thank you, for the award! Give me some time, I will make my dues :)

  28. 2008 August 21

    And yes, Congratulations for becoming an Environment Engineer! Where’s the party?

  29. 2008 August 21

    Congrats!! :D

    And Grrr…. 10k in 2 months! Damn! You beat me!!
    But, I still win because my busiest day had 566 hits and two posts have more than a 100 comments!!

    :D

  30. 2008 August 21

    Congrats reema :-)

    Grt going & a cute post too….

  31. 2008 August 21

    @ Reema:

    “..it also shows your different blog name La Vie Quotidienne on my blog roll catches people’s attention more than your mention in my post(s?)”

    The source of the click-through may be a link or the blogroll but I wonder how many click expecting a blog in a different language (and how many know what the name of the blog means!) :-)

  32. 2008 August 21

    Congrats.. :)

    10k hits in 4 months no competition
    Neither is 10,347 hits
    I don’t wanna show off :P

    Btw Nova would have more than 20k hits a month i think…
    Any inputs Super Nova? :)

  33. 2008 August 21

    Wah wah wah! Way to go girl! muaaaaaah! :) And this really calls for the double celebrtion!

    And thank you sooooooo much for the award! :)

  34. 2008 August 21

    @ Nikhil:

    What? No Hawt post yet? I have admittedly had only one and 1000 people read that post on that one day. :-P

    @ SandeepR:

    Yes, it is for the benefit of the many who do not know but cannot bring themselves around to admitting it :-) The search strings that bring people are very revealing. A frequent one is “la vie quotidienne meaning”. Hence my comment.

  35. 2008 August 21

    I found these comments very interesting. This hit thing, it never hit me that much. :)
    And I forgot to congratulate you on your post graduation. Congrats! Welcome to a new life.

  36. 2008 August 21

    Interesting post, particularly as I have a number of blogs on Blogger. What are you doing differently on WordPress, that you weren’t doing on Blogger? If you’re getting more hits doesn’t it suggest that the SEs like WordPress more than Blogger? Strange considering the Blogger/Google relationship.

    Maybe I’ll test the water and move a couple over to WordPress as well. Certainly the look and feel of your blog – and other’s I’ve seen on WordPress – is good. Congrats and well done.

  37. 2008 August 21

    Aaaaahhh!!! Second award by you in a row!! Thanksssss Reems!! :)

    M so touched… sniff sniff!!! :)

  38. 2008 August 21

    And heartiest congratulations on ur post-graduation!! :) Well done babes :)

  39. 2008 August 21

    @reema: small diary has your drawings and the big diary has the poems and some drawings too.

  50. 2008 August 22

    @Reema
    Talking about SEO and Page Ranks. You must have noticed that you simply achieved Page Rank 4 if you are using WP.
    And search results mostly contain WP blogs. :)

    But still it depends on how you use your tags and categories.

  51. 2008 August 22

    CONGRATULATIONS!!! :D

  52. 2008 August 22

    Wow

    champange kholna chaiye :D DD

    @Pavan Thanks!!!

    @Chakoli Thanks! but i dont drink :P

  54. 2008 August 22

    Simple!! On Google Toolbar……. Google Page Rank!!!
    Do you think you need other pageranks that much if you have Google’s ? :D

  55. 2008 August 22

    @Suda So after our discussion on this, i have decided to kill u for raising false hopes!! :twisted:

  56. 2008 August 24

    Congratulations on becoming an environmental engineer. :)
    Double Congrats for 10k hits. :)
    Triple congrats in advance for the next landmark ur gonna make or the next record ur gonna break… :P
