Traffic Numbers

CraicOn has gone crazy this month. It’s an ill wind that blows no one any good, they say, and so it proved with our articles and accompanying pictures and films of the storm and shore path getting us a bigger audience as people pass on the articles.

We are now getting double the numbers of page views and visitors hat we got in December.

One of our articles went viral and has now been read 8,500 times.

More Pictures

If there’s one lesson for us here it is that we should use more pictures and films. I must try to find the charger for my camera and for my video camera (or whatever they are called nowadays).

Here’s the list of articles that we have published in the past month that have been read more than 100 times. They’re not bad considering CraicOn is for one small town and one village with joint populations of less than 3,000.

Where it mentions a place like Moville or Donegal or the Welcome page that shows the number of people who clicked on that page or who entered the website at that page.
