PSF – Blown Away!

by

So.

I was just minding my business, trollin’ around the internets on Wednesday morning when I decided I would click over to Sitemeter and take a gander at how many visitors I had the day before. And when I looked at the stats for the current day my eyes kinda started to pop out of my head.

205?????

See, this was about 9 a.m. in the morning or so and I usually have anywhere from 15 to oh say, 20 visitors by that time in the morning.

So, I clicked over to see where all these folks were coming from and this is where the link led me:

RedPlum.com had featured my muffin giveaway on “What’s Free This Week” and Oh. MY. Good. GOLLY were people coming to see if they wanted free muffins or not.

I had over 2,440 hits on my blog on Wednesday. That’s usually ALMOST a month for me (about 3 weeks on average). CRAZY, huh?

And I’ve had over 700 in one day as I type this.

Now I know this is probably just a one-time thing and I’m cool with that. I don’t expect a muffin giveaway to make my blog any more popular in the long run.

However, it is kinda fun to look at this:


P.S. The muffin giveaway is still open until the end of the day today but your chances of winning have gone WAY down… ; )

P.P.S. Here is the RECIPE for the blueberry muffins I made and that are pictured in yesterday’s post.

P.P.P.S If you would like ti see my pictures for this week of 365 go to my separate blog HERE:

  1. Dang, who knew a free box of muffins would be such a huge draw. 🙂

    I actually have a give away I was supposed to do. I should get on that.

  5. Wow!

    I love looking at those things — it must be what the “popular” kids felt like back in High School 🙂

    Those must be some kind of cupcakes!

  8. it’s crazy how things can go viral when your not looking…

    About 2 weeks ago I stumbled a friends funny post about weird tweets. Admittedly, it was one of the most hilarious things I’ve ever read.

    Anyway, a few days later she emailed me and said that she got so many hits on it it crashed her server at work. It popped up on the front page of the humor section on Stumble Upon and has had over 49k hits this month.

    Ca-razy.
