It’s Getting Hot in Here Blows Up! « It’s Getting Hot In Here

I know that all of you guys can’t read the stats for It’s Getting Hot in Here, but I sure do. I just wanted to tell you that the growth on It’s Getting Hot in Here over the last 2 months has been amazing. I doubt that all of you will care about these figures as much as I do, but I will send them out anyway! To give you some background, over February we had over 37,000 unique visitors…which is pretty impressive. But this past April, we had almost 50,000! Over 25% more readers, in just 2 months!

We served over 500,000 pages in April. Those are pages read by someone, not just a machine.

Our Technorati ranking went from around the 25,000th blog to the 20,000th. If we keep on zooming up, we will be a top online community. And remember, this is out of 71 million blogs, with the top ones pulling in more readers than most cable news shows!

We have had stories picked up by 100s of blogs, including The Politico on the presidential race, Gristmill, and places like Sweden, Indonesia, and Algeria.

So keep it up you guys! You rock.
