Spread the word
Does Laura know about this?
Yes, but she's not responsible for any of the words and errors on the site--those are all mine.
Thanks!
Fewer than 10 reasons left in our experiment to see if we can find Laura a job before I get through 32 reasons to hire her. So it’s time for an update on how well we’re getting the word out.
I mentioned about a week ago that that I had installed Google Analytics on 32 Reasons. Since I didn’t do that at the time the site launched on June 1, I don’t have complete information about traffic. But from June 17-28, 59 visitors (not including me) made 93 visits to the site and looked at 169 pages—spending an average of nearly 2 minutes per visit on the site.
The most popular referring site is, not surprisingly, Facebook. But even that accounts for only half (49.46%) of the traffic. Speaking of Facebook, 47 new people looked there in the last week and a half, bringing the total to 226. We’re also up to 40 fans there.
Of the four people who have come to 32 Reasons from organic search results on Google, my favorite keywords that led them here are “reasons why your my friend” (sic).
Once again, thanks for everything you have been doing to spread the word about Laura. Let’s make one big last push over the next couple of weeks! See all the ways you can help.
