Uniques are up by 200 from last month, and pageviews are up by almost 400. Statcounter reckons I have 1,708 Unique Visitors. Statcounter has me getting an average of 73 pageloads per day, 10 up from last month, cartwheels and stiffies all round in celebration chaps, the target for August will be 75 ppd.

The peaks towards the end of the month is from Indietracks videos, those indiepop kids love the internet, and I love them, and the peak near the start of the month was my Songkick top gig-goers list, if you do a web page about enthusiastic internety music people, then they will come.
