Well, we had climbed from our lowly beginnings of 983,109 to a high point of 415,722 at the old domain yesterday.
We start over today at 1,054,428.
Other stats to live up to:
- total page views at the old site – 3727 in 41 days = 91 views per day on average
- heaviest traffic day – 3 Jan 2006 – 260 hits.
- clawed our way to the top of blogsearch.google.com for both “use case” and “foundation series”, as well as “requirements management”.

Stats to look forward to:
- No more slowdowns of the website (now hosted via Yahoo)
- Restoring good blogsearch rankings
- A non-zero pagerank on google
- Indexing by Yahoo (part of the hosting package)
- The ability to customize the blog software with plug-ins (better stats, admin)
- Ability to do polls
