Here are a few of insights about our blog:

  1. We published a total of 46 posts in calendar year 2019
  2. The Top 10 posts (21% of total) listed above accounted for 44% of the total pageviews received by these 46 posts. While that’s disproportionately high, our analysis shows that our blog’s traffic pattern is still closer to a bell curve than a power law curve (where 20% of posts would get 80% of pageviews). See the frequency histogram on the right.
  3. Interestingly, in 2019, for every pageview received by posts published in 2019, four pageviews were received by posts published in prior years. This belies the common notion that content has a short shelf life and goes to show that good content can deliver rich dividends for years and years after it’s published.

We hope you find these insights useful in the context of your own blogs.

As always, we thank the following applications that continue to be the bedrock of GTM360 Blog: WordPress and its various plug-ins, most notably WP-Touch, IrfanView, and PowerPoint. Thanks are also due to Dr. Eugene F.M. O’Loughlin of National College of Ireland for this exellent video and the nifty Ctrl+Shift+Enter trick in Excel, which helped in creating the histogram displayed above.

We thank you for your continued support of GTM360 and look forward to deepening and widening our relationship with you in 2020.
