Hooray!

Something about Humble Uker. I have been doing this with the help of a couple industrious friends for two years. My buddy Kim said I should get a statistics counters and after 9 months I finally did figure it out. So in 15 months there have been about 102,000 hits. Other good news, I linked up with the Top 50 Ukulele Sites (just after the two year anniversary) and HU is now 116 in the top 50. That's interesting math but that's where it is. Thanks for stopping by and sharing the ukulele madness.

STATISTICS / THANKS

Started Stat Counter June 3, 2009 so in 3 months the HU blog has had about 11,000 hits. I can can see general information from around the world; and specific cities for each hit. Ron Hale, from the California Wine country, is my most prolific commenter. Mr. Kim J. is the most outspoken fan of HU at the Berkeley Ukulele Club. And Terry C., from Australia, has been the biggest article contributor. I can see that many users are making good use of the Ukulinkies. If you have a chance, drop me a note, tell me if there's someting you're looking for or something that you've found that you think would be great to share with others. Thanks, HU

STATISTICS, UKULELE Blogging & THE KING

I added a counter to my blog just about 8 days ago. It comes with a statistics counter. I have a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Mathematics with a minor in Statistics. So I do like to read numbers. While I went to college I built a different career in construction and now only use advanced high school mathematics on a daily basis. My Danish Friend, Mr. Kim J., has been encouraging me to get a counter on my blog. I am using http://www.statcounter.com/ and I'm impressed with the plethura, (3 Amigos lingo from El Guapo) of statistics that can be provided for FREE.

I am having fun seeing what people are finding the most popular, what photos are being collected, what countries people are searching from, etc. I took a look earlier in the day and found a SPIKE of about 170 over the average. I saw that there were numerous looks at the 3 Seated Ladies with the Banjo Ukes. Turns out the FRIENDLY KING of the ukulele blogging world made a one-line comment on the photo and WHAMMO! Alistair has the power of the pen!

Here's the best thing about looking at the stats though -- It encourages me to look backwards and relook at things that I had written before. Sometimes I forget. Here's a good old one. It also has some photos of King Alistair making faces. I think he must be on a witness protection plan because he keeps those photos quite small.
