Web Traffic…
OK… Well I was just doing some scouting around my web traffic reports and I noticed something very interesting…? I believe that the normally top performer for sending me visitors via links on their page has been unseated…? Normally I can thank Chris and Jenni for most of my referrals? but now I’m going to have to start the monthly payments too…? Drum Roll Please…? Sabrina!? Yes folks it seems more people are coming to my site through her blog and? is? over overcoming the Blog Father!
Just for fun here are the stats:

Just FYI… I use StatCounter for my web traffic tracking…

Well, we wont take offense at being unseated
But who knows what will happen next week!
What? That is way to complicated to me. How in the heck did you figure that out? I know your just smart, right! I do enjoy checking in on your blog and am always so happy to be reminded that your married.
I really really like the new template! I Want one. Is that hard to do too?
Hey!! This looks good! I like it, but I liked the other way you had it too!! Great picture at the top!! Love you two!!

The monitoring and reports are done using a service provided by http://www.StatCounter.com. It takes a bit of work to setup but when completed it provides a counter (which you can see at the bottom of my pages) that helps keep track of the people that visit your site and where they come from. Go to statcounter and read up on the features and see the demo.
As far as the new template or Theme as they are called. This is through my blogging software that I use now. I used to use Blogger like yourself but now I’m using WordPress. Again it takes some work to setup but if you are interested best bet would be to check out http://www.wordpress.com. There are abilities there to change themes…
Douglas…
Love the new look guys! It’s totally you! But you are going to have to change the picture soon it makes me feel cold and I want to feel springy. Just kidding, you can do whatever you want as if you needed my permission!
Hmm. I think I want in on the competition!

And I came from Sabrina’s…sorry Jenni! It was just a whim. I have no idea why I haven’t linked to you guys yet, Doug and Carol! Craziness. Off to add you in (and see if my readers make a difference!).
We use statcounter as well…we love it.
Thanks for the info. I did the stat counter thing!! Pretty neat!
Yep… I’ve been using StatCounter for quite a while… Love it’s ability to see the stats as fare as what part of the world people are coming from. Let’s me know when MOM and Dad check up on us…
Douglas…
BTW… If you change your Theme don’t forget to add your counter back into the code… Just lost two days of data! Oh My! Maybe this would have brought Eric and Karen? into the lead with the addition of a link to our site. Sorry guys…
Douglas…
Yeah, might have put us in the lead if I’d used the correct url…dougandcarol.com isn’t going to get anyone here!
*sigh*
It’s been corrected. Let the games begin.
I would like to thank all the little people who have helped me achieve such a grand victory. I wouldn’t be where I am without all of you. “You like me….you really…really like me!”
