Help Me Break 10,000......Today!


You'll see that my stat counter is approaching 10,000.....and probably will hit it late today or tomorrow. Not that bad for a six-month-old blog that knew absolutely nothing about the whole deal that long ago.


I'm hoping you can help me jump the 10,000 mark in a huge way. I'd like to see how many hits I can get in the next 24 hours. I know, I know....we all want the fame and fortune and hits. Our egos beg for it. Our clickers just itch for it. And we check, over and over, to see if the number have erected.


Would you mind helping me? Pass along to your readers, your email list, your porn list, even your mother-in-law, my site and encourage them to take a look today. I would really appreciate you pushing me over the 10,000 mark in a big way. I'm shameless, I know. And, please, let me know what I can do in return.

I'm doing my part!! :)

You'll get there soon enough Lewis. I decided to pass on following my numbers a long time ago. it became too obsessive of an activity. Plus when I switched to Wordpress I had it set up so that it would only read a person's hit only once in a day rather than multiple times. You get a truer idea of who is coming in and if new readers are coming in, which is what you really want.

If you don't break 10,000, would that be a "hit crime"? (Get it?)

Cheers...

Alright, I'm here to help my buddy out. Where's the afterglow party? And do we get Mai Tai's or jungle juice?

I'm a stats whore, myself. If my hits are good, I feel so loved.

Is this anything like having a gigillion friends on myspace? Hopefully you will surpass your goal today! Like Matt said... I did my part!

Minge said...

You can fondle me.

I'm obsessed with fondling today.

Unknown said...

My dear Minge sent me. (I'd prefer a pina coloda and a fondle personally...)

I used to care about my counter... but once I trumped Scotty from Bedford, Indiana for good, I stopped caring about it. I lost my Yang. I lost my Evil Empire to compete against. ;)

Good luck on your endeavor Lewis! :)

Red Seven said...

I made it before the ten thousand mark, so I can say I contributed. No return favors required, but of course I always love it when you stop by and comment!!

Since you're in a different time zone... you still have only 25 to go.

Help me break Lewis' record by visiting my site. I have a long way to go until I hit 10,000, but hey, 5 visits a day for a month should land me ahead of Lewis. ;-)

Congrats, Lewis! I'm 10,018 on your counter.

Single Guy said...

Tick! Hope you get there. Congrats!

LSL said...

You've already hit 10k, but I want to contribute anyway! I'm not at all surprised that you've hit 10k in six months. You're friendly, funny, positive, interesting, and it's clear that you have a really big heart. It's fun to be in your fan club :)

Does visitor 10,000 get a special prize?

Hello, this is another emmisary of The Minge.

According to Wikipedia, there is only one catho0lic saint called Lewis, and he was Welsh. Though there are three Saint Louis's.

Hi there

Talking of counters, over here in Edinburgh we have just had the general election. In Scotland the Scottish National Party (Alex Salmond) won so at some point there is going to be a referendum on "independence" for Scotland. However, Labour got back in overall in the UK ie the spineless wonder, Tony Blair, however he is due to stand down in favour of GORDON BROWN who I think I like! But the most interesting issue concerning "counters" was the number of spoiled ballot. They were using an electronic system with two ideologies - cross in the box and numbers - some folks just may have got confused. However, I did here a group of women in the Highlands were going to spoil their ballot by putting "rotten egg", "rotten egg", "rotten egg". The good thing is that a spoiled ballot is still counted as it is deemed a protest vote - in Scotland about 150,000 were spoiled.

Now there's some history, hope your having a lovely day.

Regards.

Lesley from Edinburgh, Scotland

Here's hoping you hit the five figures today!

I've seen many a blog reaching hit milestones before, but it has never been this interesting. I REALLY WISH I AM YOUR 10,000th visitor.

Now be ready to pay back!

Brad said...

Count me as present. Congratulations!

Ur-spo said...

I see I was not necessary, and too late, but here I am!
Congratulations on the 1OK mark - may there be many more for you.

Oh great! See what happens when I'm away from my computer for a few days? Sorry I missd it. Just wanted you to know that I care. XOXO

Billy said...

Pole Sana - that's Swahili for very sorry, I was too late - but congrats on your big 10!

Now, what is the next big goal - 100k?

Minge said...

I don't think we will have a referendum on independence here in Scotland. Even with the Greens, Alex Salmond doesn't command half the Parliament. Does anyone seriously think Labour, Conservative and the Lib Dems would vote in favour of it?
