A Global Ministry

This is amazing! Looking at my site statistics on Google Analytics, I found this list of cities where my visitors have come from in the past 30 days. These are in order from most visits to least. Naturally my neighborhood, Beaumont, came in first. But the next few listings came as a complete surprise:

  10. Lancaster
  11. San Francisco
  12. Birmingham
  13. Oakland
  14. Jacksonville
  15. Phoenix
  16. Thames Ditton
  17. Honolulu
  18. Newark
  19. Newton
  20. Albany
  21. Marseille
  22. Luxembourg

  34. Bridgetown
  35. Perth
  36. Watford
  37. Lyon

  40. Belleville
  41. Hinckley

  60. Oxford
  61. Weehawken
  62. Montreal
  63. Bend
  64. Dayton
  65. Los Angeles

  86. Chicago
  87. Cork

  89. Makati
  90. Reston
  91. Columbus
  92. Appleton

I’m not even sure what countries some of these cities are in.

Although I am officially banned in China, like many Christian sites, (You can confirm that at the Great Firewall of China) from the presence of such entries as Nanjing, Shanghai, and Beijing, I see that a few are able to get through and to read my site illegally.

It also told me that the most popular article by far during the past 30 days has been Six Principles for Godly Choices, followed by Do Not Let Your Fire Go Out, which is just a quotation (though apparently a very popular one), and Six Principles for Godly Choices, Slight Return. This tends to confirm my belief that people are looking for the same answers I’ve been looking for, How to Live Godly Lives in a Fallen World. And, like me, they aren’t finding those answers in the local church. When I find more answers, I’ll provide them. But I’m still looking. And the local churches don’t seem to have those answers. (Some churches don’t even seem to know the questions.)

I also learned that my average daily visits over the past year have gone from the low 30s to over 200 per day! I’ve done no advertising. What happened?

Anyway, if you have a website and don’t have Google Analytics, you seriously need to get’cha some. It’s free. And this is only a small part of the info it provides.

This is awesome! This little site I started a few years ago to announce the release of a CD, has turned into a Global Ministry! I am humbled and awed and amazed.
