Woohoo! When
I made the jump to this blog site, I was hoping for a couple of hundred hits
per month. My friend Szarwyn who hosted the blog at its previous site told me
that it got traffic and was probably more popular than I thought it was.
The Blogger
stats starting out have surprised me!
I
transitioned this blog and set it up the second week of February. So by the
15th I had the pieces in place. Some friends like Assmunahi showed up to see me
still planting the flowers in the garden. By Feb 18, I had some of the kinks
worked out (forgive me Internet Explorer people, I do see some wonky text in
some of the columns, but haven’t figured out how to get rid of it yet. The blog
is produced in Google Chrome). By Feb 22, I wrote my first new post for the
site.
As I write
this post a week or two after lauch, the site has gotten over 1600 hits this
week! That is just truly humbling and
amazing. Of course, I love stats and graphs and charts (who doesn’t right?) and
wanted to see from where the readers were coming.
Thusfar, USA tops the
list of readers, and the United Kingdom, Germany, Russia, Canada, and France are
some of the other countries that are dialing into Danania.net. I’ve gotten mail
from some of you in the UK and Canada, but some of the other countries… very
interesting. Wherever lotro is, people are tuning into this site.
So Dana,
where did this title come from? I traced back one of the traffic source links
from Russia and it described me as “the Sailor Moon of Lotro”. Lol! Oh my. My
friend Berda said that is probably a compliment. Not knowing Sailor Moon, I had
to Wikipedia it to be sure, and found her name to be “Pretty Soldier Sailormoon” and her story to be
described as “a special warrior with the destiny of saving the planet
Earth, and later the entire galaxy”. I will take it. Thanks for the compliment
Russia! J
To Germany, danke fur das Lesen “die
Abenteuer von Supergirl”
To France,
merci d’avoir lu “les Aventures de Supergirl”
(I did learn both German and French
once upon a time, but I totally used translate.google.com above, hehe).
Thank you for reading the Adventures
of Supergirl.
p.s. I noticed that
there is still room to be a blog follower. As I understand it, by doing so, you
will be advised of when the blog is updated. AND, you will get my thanks
knowing that you care.

My friend Will once blogged, "What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet."
'Tis an honor to have you here Filidh!
