September Stats and Referrals
OTB had 283,211 unique visits, 568,438 page views, and 2,115,488 hits in the month of September according to my site host and a something like 235,000 unique visits according to SiteMeter. This reversed a three month streak of declining in traffic and, indeed, was my second highest month ever according to the site stats (the third highest according to SiteMeter).
Once again, hostage beheadings and celebrity strippers were the most popular entry points (other than the main page), with Video: American Hostage Eugene Armstrong Beheaded, my Hostage Beheadings category archive (and variants, since WordPress allows subcategories), Another Bulgarian Beheading Video?, and the ever-popular Paige Davis Stripping leading the way.
The following sites were the top weblog referrers for the month of September:
- Backcountry Conservative 5000+
- Wizbang 4000+
- Blogs of War 3250+
- The Jawa Report 3150+
- National Debate 2700+
- Michelle Malkin 2100+
- Our Life ~2000
- Taegan Goddard’s Political Wire 1800+
- ScrappleFace 1650+
- VodkaPundit 1650+
- Mudville Gazette 1500+
- INDC Journal ~1350
- Southern California Law Blog ~1000

They’ll be enshrined in the left sidebar until replaced by the October list. Thanks to all who read and link OTB.
