So, according to google analytics, for April, this blog got:-

Compared to March's

1,046 Absolute Unique Visitors
2,438 Pageviews

Bit of a dip from last month's titanic heights, but still healthier than in the past. I guess its cos of not so many interesting posts, well, the Ian Tomlinson things got a lot of traffic and the link baiting lists of other blogs, everyone loves those. Must try harder for original content though.

These are my top referers for April (not including google wanderers)

1. Facebook (70 visitors)
2. Twitter (50 visitors)
3. Counting Cats in Zanzibar (44 visitors)
4. Lib Dem Voice (27 visitors)
5. Bloglines (17 visitors)
6. Technorati (17 visitors)
7. Matt Wardman (16 visitors)
8. Landed Underclass (12 visitors)
9. Liberal Conspiracy (9 visitors)
10. Brian Micklethwaite (7 visitors)

So quality posts, with original content seem to be paying off in terms of visitors more than any kind of comment pieces.
