Seven months in, it's time for the monthly DaveChung.com numbers that no one cares about but me!

For some reason, it's very fun for me to look at these numbers and see how much I've been able to hit on the top stories of the day or if I happen to write about things that people are interested in reading. If you're at all interested in seeing how a small website turns into a big one, hopefully this monthly watch is remotely interesting to you too!

Let's start with page impressions!I don't completely understand this stat, but I think it's how many times I come up in search results and whatnot, not necessarily visits or page views, but they generally translate to more of both.

    • The next most popular searched term was "Dave Chung," which accounted for 63 visits or 8.74% of all visitors
  • People who came to my site after being referred from one of my favorite blogs, IrishTrojan.com (what up to Brendan Loy), stayed on the site for an average of 4 minutes and 11 seconds.
I could literally do this forever, but I'm going to get my room cleaned up and finally try and relax tonight.

Happy 4th of July, all!
