The hit count was about 52,000 for the month of April, with fairly steady daily totals throughout. I can't actually remember anything exciting from a traffic-watching point of view for the month, so I'll take this opportunity to say thank you as always for reading. I really appreciate it.

Posted by: Pink Lady on May 26, 2005 9:32 AMSo, how does the growing popularity of RSS aggregators effect SiteMeter stats? I'm assuming that hits via Bloglines, etc. don't show up?
Posted by: sarah on May 26, 2005 10:41 AMSitemeter captures some RSS feed referrers. I don't think it's that many, but I can't say for sure. I should note that these monthly totals do not come from Sitemeter but from my webhost, which provides a script to process the logfiles. The raw logs seem to capture Bloglines referrals pretty well.
