If Only the Site Had Videos of Cats…

By Dave Shute

Sometime yesterday, one of you saw the fifteen millionth page viewed on this site since it opened a little more than five years ago.

The ten millionth pageview happened in October, so thanks to all of your links, likes, emails, and conversations, more and more people are getting the site’s help faster!  Thank you all so much!

Pageviews have been basically doubling every year for the last three years–which, for a site with no cat videos, is not a horrible trend.

I did a little digging into what you like to see.  There’s 23 pages that have had more than 100,000 views each, with the leader–at more than half a million pageviews–being the home page.

After that, every page in the top ten is related to “When to Go,” and if I group together the stats for the various years of “Week Rankings,” “Crowd Calendars,” and “Week Pickers” (grouping because new versions of these come out annually), each of these page types has had more than a million views.

Well, that’s just not good enough, is it?

Based on these weak results, I’m working on a new video series: “When Cats Say You Should Go to Walt Disney World!” 

I’ll be taking our cats Mudge and Marvin (that’s Mudge in the photo) though two-a-day training sessions starting soon, and the videos will be coming out shortly thereafter–right after I clean up the Epcot itineraries…
