Closing Thought–31Dec20

The last day of the year and as per my tradition I want to look back at the year this site has had…..

I know very little about mine, IST, other than the amount of likes and visitors…..it was never really that important to me to know my standing in the world…that is just another headache I can avoid.

I am not a blogger that spends more time checking my stats than actually trying to educate the reader on a wide array of topics.

I admit that I check my WP stats a couple of times a day….but that is as far as my search usually goes.

But recently I was searching and found this about my site, In Saner Thought……

Lobotero.com has a global Alexa ranking of 7,084,416 . The global rank improved 2,602 positions versus the previous 3 months. Lobotero.com estimated website worth is US$23,490 (based on the daily revenue potential of the website over a 12 month period). Lobotero.com possibly receives an estimated 145 unique visitors every day.

My site is worth about $23,500 and I rank 7 million in the world of blogging…..plus my security rating is Good….

Considering there are about 500 million blogs….”But How Many Blogs Are There In Total In 2020? To date, there are more than 500 million blogs“….I feel pretty good about the ranking considering I do very little increase my stats other than to continue to try and write quality stuff the both informs and educates on that wide array of topics….and visit other blogs and comments.

All in all I am pleased….for I refuse to pay for readers….they either want to know the topic on which I write or not…..they can either learn or remain ignorant…..it is all up to them not some algorithm to gain readers.

I like to look back at the progress of IST….I am not breaking any records with 4033 followers….but I can say that most followers once they follow continue to do so…I Lose very few over the year.

I would like each and everyone of them to know how much I appreciate their visits and their comments.

I have posted 16093 posts that is about 5.6  million words I have typed…… since I began I have received 79,525 comments over the years….

Thank you one and all for your continued readership….hopefully the coming New Year will be better for us all….I hope to see you all many times and vocally as well.

Be Well….Be Safe…..and Thank you from the bottom of my heart…..and party responsibly…..
