March on this blog

Once again a look at who's been reading this site in the last month courtesy of tracksy.com.

First off the sites most people come from:

  1. Google (+1)

  2. Blogger.com (+3)

  3. Antonia Bance (NEW)

  4. Educationet (-3)

  5. Jo Salmon (-1)

  6. Conservative Mind (+1)

  7. Contemplative Activist (-4)

  8. Dan Quixote - Tilting At Political Windmills Blog (+2)

  9. Wikipedia (-)

  10. Liberal England (NEW)

Dropping out of the top ten altogether are Iain Dale (at 12, down 4) and Militant Moderate (at 20, down 14).

Given the way Antonia has shot up the charts, overtaking her partner Jo, I wonder if there will be rows in the Bance-Salmon home! Probably not... (but don't expect me to take sides, they're both fantastic people!)

Then we have the top ten search engine requests that brought people here:

  1. laura blomeley (-)

  2. tim roll-pickering (+4)

  3. what does your birthday say about you (-1)

  4. shabina begun jilbab (NEW)

  5. sexism nowadays (NEW)

  6. abortions in oxted (NEW)

  7. qmsu referendum success (NEW)

  8. female conservatives stupid (NEW)

  9. my cat loves custard (NEW)

  10. council tax students exemption opsi (NEW)

Laura Blomeley is by far the main search term, with over 80% of searches being for her. I'm touched by this, as I feel my tribute to her is the piece of writing of which I am most proud.

There's been quite a turnover of search terms, with few if any people coming here searching for information about 'ruth kelly sexuality mp', 'michael fishwick blogspot', 'decommissioning green goddess in northern ireland', 'is not in kent', 'what do people think of downsend school?', 'martin cakebread and conservative' and, not surprisingly given his fall, 'charles kennedy'.

Finally we have a list of all the cities detected that people are in (although many are listed as "other"):

LONDON, NEWPORT, CARDIFF, BROOKLYN, OXFORD, SHEFFIELD, BANGKOK, YOKOSUKA, WASHINGTON, ATLANTA, DUNDEE, COVENTRY, CAMBRIDGE, FLORENCE, DULLES, READING, JOHANNESBURG, WARRINGTON, BRISTOL, CHELMSFORD, EDMONTON, MANCHESTER, BRIGHTON, DUDLEY, SUBOTICA, BUENOS AIRES, ROTTERDAM, NOTTINGHAM, RHODES, SOUTHAMPTON, BIRMINGHAM, TORONTO, EDINBURGH, DUNEDIN, LEEDS, BRISBANE, BICESTER, LOUISVILLE, TRURO, NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE, MIDDLESBROUGH, NEW YORK, LOS ANGELES, LOS GATOS, HELSINKI, DERBY, HICKSVILLE, BATAVIA

(As ever this is not always perfect - for some reason readers at both the University of Kent and Canterbury Christ Church University are listed as being in London. Canterbury is not exactly next to London!)

Once more, thanks to everyone who's been reading and contributing to this blog!
