This week we passed a new milestone. We hit the 2,000 hits a month average, and just under 4,000 page visits. This is amazing considering when I started I was only planning on a few hits a day. Yesterday was a record day, thanks to the Taylor Hicks fan club. I guess they posted a link to the video with Keb Mo on a couple of their message boards, and boy did we get swamped. We received 229 hits, and 306 page views! I do know that a major league blog probably gets five times that an hour, then I do in a day, but to me this is very cool!
Also I want to thank all of the blues websites, and blogs that have posted links to the blog. You are what really makes this site run. The majority of the people who come here, are coming from your sites. I appreciate your help, and if anyone wants to link to my blog, I will add your link to my site.
As always, if you have a show, festival, video, or a new CD that you want promoted, or reviewed, then send it here to the Blues Historian, and I will get it up on the site ASAP.
Thanks!!!!!!!!!

The Hicks post drew me to this site. However, Hicks has admirers who are not members of any "fan club." I, for example, am just a blues fan. I don't "herd."
ReplyDeleteCool!! Glad to see you here, I am sure you will find a lot of great blues here.

bluesman2001: I love this video by Guy Forsyth. I don't know if you've ever heard of him but he puts on a great live show. He's from Austin, TX as am I. I shot this Live at the Shady Grove in 2006.
