A Salute to all Nations

One of the fun things about maintaining this site/blog on blogger.com is checking out the stats.   You get to see what sites readers used to find your site, what search engine terms drove readers to the site, where your readers are from, and what device they used.   This is an aggregate measure, not by individual, so we are not spying on you.

In looking at the stats we've discovered a few fun facts.  First, one of the top 5 referring site that drove readers to teamtizzel.com was yandex.ru.Yandex.ru is a Russian search engine.   At least one reader found us by searching for teamtizzel.com.  This is fascinating to think someone across the globe put "teamtizzel.com" into a search engine.

Blogger gives you a map of the top ten countries reading your site by day, week, month, and all time.   Since we launched in June we've had readers in six continents (if you know someone in Antartica please send our link to them so we can get to all seven).  We're not surprised how many American page reads we've had.  However, we figured being kinda Disney-centric countries like Canada and England would have the next highest read totals.   That's not the case.    Here's our top ten page views by country:

Pretty cool!  Today we had a page view in Malaysia and China.   Alot of other countries were represented in prior rack-ups and some new countries, like France and Egypt, are coming up in the page views.   We thank all our readers for following along with us as we bring you some of our memories and stories and keep the fight against breast cancer (and all cancer) top-of-mind.  

We'd love to hear from you; especially our international readers.  Leave a comment on this post and let us know who you are, where you are from, and what brought you to view our site.  Making new friends is what social media is all about and making friends has been one of the greatest benefits of being on Team Allears!  You can also comment on our Facebook page or drop us a tweet at @teamtizzel.
