This has been the most successful month in the entire history of the blog, with over 18,000 hits.
Granted, I'm relatively certain that a large part of the spike came from the fact that my election day coverage consisted of 12 separate posts -- that garnered my blog a thousand hits alone. And, to no one's surprise, the one where I mentioned who would Deadpool vote for actually garnered enough hits to be in the top ten for the month.
The posts that made it, however, were....
1. #BlackFriday, 2016
Not too big of a surprise. I posted this around the universe endlessly during the week of Black Friday, as well as Cyber Monday. I even bothered to use Hashtags. They work.
2. Building Catholic Vampire Lore (Honor At Stake)
I still have no idea why this one keeps popping up so high on the blog count. I don't do anything special for it, I don't post it anywhere that often. It just ... shows up.
3. The End of the Pius Trilogy
I took out a Facebook ad for this one, which is probably why it did so well, overall.
4. The Cast of Set To Kill
Wherein I discuss what the cast of Set to Kill looks like, and how they have NO SIMILARITIES WHATSOEVER to any real people. Honest. Also, a photo of Larry Correia.
5. Set To Kill is coming sooner than expected
The announcement that the book was coming to the internet way sooner than anyone thought.
6. Set to Kill is out, and ready to be Best Related at the Hugos...
I confess, the title was clickbait. Mea culpa, mea culpa
7. Election Day: Who would Deadpool vote for?
Discussed above. The answer ... he didn't even get the year right.
8, Attack of the Silver Empire
The announcement that the Pius Trilogy was dead, and why.
9. Casting Codename UnSub
I ... don't quite understand why this went anywhere. Perhaps because I had pictures of good looking people all over the post.
10. Review: Doctor Strange
I saw the film in theater, and posted the review the weekend it came out. I'm not all that surprised that this made it into the top ten. Then again, it's also a Marvel film, and the most popular one yet.
Obviously, other factors when into the popularity. Some of these posts had Castalia House retweet them, which is good for hits -- I think #5 and #6 were retweeted by a few people, if not the publisher itself.
I'm almost certain that Silver Empire retweeted my announcement of #8 a few dozen times ... or if they didn't, someone certainly did.
All in all, it's been an amazing month.
Granted, it's not as many hits as Vox Day gets per DAY, but I'll take it.
Be well, all.
