Due to being hospitalized and relocated, this is my first Monthly Report since October, but I was able to get some of last month’s stats.  Compared to December, January results were down in every category.  I’m not surprised, as I had to miss several days.

Compared with last January, we are down in Uniques and up in every other category.  I’ll take it!

Here is our ClustrMap for 2019 YTD.  This is one months of traffic.

ClustrMap1-2019

ClustrMap misses a lot of visits, because many visits can’t be easily traced to a location.  Do you see the widget on the left column of our pages?  What browser are you using? I’m using Chrome, and I can’t see it.

Here are our top five articles:

Squatch’s Open Thread 16 January 2019 – 1/16/2019 708
Samantha Bee from 10/17 – 10/18/2018 – 704
Hate on Our Media? – 1/8/2019 – 615
Christmas 2018 – 12/25/2018 – 544
Fleecing the Sheeple – 1/9/2019 – 520

The count represents only the people who opened the page for that specific article.  Three were from January.  I wrote four.  I would have been happier to see more of our other authors’ work represented here.  JD and Nameless have written fine articles.  Lona is still adjusting to living upside down in a heat wave.  Congrats to Squatch for the month’s most popular article!

Here are our top non-blog/news referrers (100 referral minimum):

Care2   2,777
Google 2,621
Baidu 132

We had 4 sites with 2 or more referrals.  Putting blogs’ links here increases the ratings of their sites, so this “linkey love” is our thank you for their referral support.  We still need to improve this.

As of midnight January 1, we had 8,774 articles and 105,184 comments.

JD won a another Big Mouth Award for the 103,000th comment on November 9.  Animae won 2 in a row for the 104,000th and 105,000th comments on December 18 and January 25.  We think she’s taking it over.  More kudos for both, please. Big Mouth winners at 10,000 levels will have their choice of a PP mug or a PP T Shirt.  Staff will remain eligible to be winners at the 1,000 levels.  Winners at prize winning levels will be the first non-staff commenter at or above.  If any staff member wants a mug or a T Shirt, let me know.

I recommend using your own avatar. Go to Gravatar.  Sign up using the email address you use to post comments here and upload the image you want to use as your avatar.  Whenever you comment under that email address here or on any WordPress blog (several others too), that image will become your avatar.

Your Administrators are Lynn Squance, aka Sasquatch or Squatch, SoINeedAName, aka Nameless, and I, aka TomCat, the Founder.  Your Editors are Joanne Dixon, aka JD the Erynator and Lona Goudswaard, aka Lona the Napster.  I  promoted them from Author in August 2017 to give them the ability to add graphics to comments and the ability to correct my innumerable typos.

This is our policy on links.  We do not embed links to extreme Republican websites, like Faux Noise, Breitfart or World Nut Daily.  However I leave notes in square brackets when I delete such links, (example: [faux noise delinked]) so readers, who wish to follow them can click through to the source article.  I also remove topical links.  Finally, I blank the target on all links, so they open in a new tab or window.

I’m so glad Democrats won the House.  You and people like you are responsible for that.

Thank you for your support here, and kudos for all the good you do, everywhere you do it.

RESIST!!

  4. I use Firefox and I can see the ClustrMAp widget, TomCat. I’m (one of) the visitor(s) from Wondai, which is where the outgoing server is, I suppose.

    Thanks for another gruelling round of data grinding, TomCat.

  5. Very informative report. Excellent job by you, TC.

  6. Good stuff Puddy Tat!  With the exception of uniques, everything is up and not just a bit!

    Even though you were hospitalised and then moving, we tried to keep you covered.

    And congrats again to JD and Animae for the Big Mouth Awards!

    Thanks Puddy Tat for all the work you do to keep the site vibrant! 030303030303

  7. Thank you very much for all your hard work and the great info TomCat.

  8. Thanks and hugs to all. ?

    I learned why the ClustrMap widget won’t display in Chrome.  If you use an ad blocker (I use AdGuard) you need to write exceptions for politicsplus.org and clustrmaps.com.
