I like to check in on the stats once in a while to see if I can see any trends. I've been at this blogging thing for almost seven and a half years now and you would thing some of the numbers would make sense. They seldom do.

• Contests are good for traffic, holidays are not. You are all reading this at work, aren't you? Cheater pants! Everyone of you.
• A lot of people really want to know who many calories there are in beer.
• Months later, I think the demise of RSBS did have a real effect on people coming here - at least directly. Other aggregators has more than taken up more than the slack but no universal beer related aggregator has really replaced it. I still feel less in the know.
• I get the 6th most visits from India compared to any other country over the last year. Yet where are the comments? Work conditions must be tough there.

That is all I can come up with. I still think there are twelve of you out there. Other than that, it is a mug's game. Except if you are monetizing. Monetize and the pieces all fall into place.
