If This Blog Were Congress…
by Patrick Ruffini :: January 9th, 2007 6:34 amCalifornia would lead the way with 57 Congressional seats (that’s the Hugh effect), Texas would get 32, Virginia 30, New York a measly 23, and the District of Columbia 19. Those are readership stats culled from Google Analytics.
Among Wire readers, it gets even more interesting. New York and Virginia each have 47. California has 35, and DC has 23. Other states that are overrepresented include Minnesota with 19, Massachusetts with 18, Utah with 13, South Carolina with 11, and Iowa with 9. That’s the America that’s spending every waking moment thinking ‘08 right now.
Google Analytics really is a fantastic tool that’s helping me zero in on patterns of site use. For example: people clicking in off a 3- or 4-day old Instapundit or Hewitt link aren’t new people — they’re the same people who clicked two days before. People seek out the old posts so they can re-click the links they like. That’s horribly inefficient. Enough already! Bookmark the site. Del.icio.us it. Better yet: Subscribe or add your email at the top of the page.
