Three Milestones in November

• CATEGORIES: News This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

A quick update; It was a good month:

1. Total page views topped 11,200,000 as of the end of November since eWillys began.  Almost half of those have been in the past twelve months.

2. In October and November total page views per month topped 500,000.

3. The total number of posts on eWillys passed the 20,000 post mark.

4. This was the best advertising month ever, which helps keep the lights burning and my fingers typing.  Because of that, I’ve been able to purchase a few brochures and other useful content items which I will share over time.

Just a few updates this morning and tomorrow so I can focus on writing.
