Suddenly I am popular

I don’t court blog popularity and while I appreciate my audience reading and leaving comments I mainly write my blog for myself as a kind of journal.  At most each post was getting maybe 1000 reads but over the years that gradually dropped to around 200 or less.  While a lot of my favourite bloggers turned to YouTube or give up I happily soldiered on.  

So it was quite a surprise in the last week to see my views start to rise.  My latest not particularly interesting post has had 2,500 views which I think is quite suspicious though comments have only been from the usual sources.  I wonder if anyone else has noticed such a large and sudden pattern change.  Do we put it down to bots AI or some alien interference and why do the ramblings if a 76 year old who doesn’t get out much attract such attention.

  1. After reading loads of comments on other post about the viewing figures huge rises, it does seem across everyone.
