how Search Engine Land has grown in various ways over the year. Let's dive in!
First, how about a chart:
That's the number of visits to the site over the past year. I'll do another

Search Engine Land: January 2007 Statistics Review
Feb 6, 2007 at 11:17am ET by Danny Sullivan
Time for the second monthly update on how
Search Engine Land is growing. As I
said with my review of December 2006 traffic, I hope our traffic statistics will
be both interesting and also provide helpful tips to other search marketers.

covers the importance of thinking if you can produce "number stories" for social

Search Engine Land Stats: December 2006 Preview
Dec 13, 2006 at 7:02pm ET by Danny Sullivan
I've been trained from internet birth that site stats are a precious thing,
never to be shared. Well, not trained, but somehow I got it in my head. It's
somewhat silly, given that any site that carries advertising often reveals this
information in their media kit anyway. With Search Engine Land being all new, a
virtual restart for me, I thought it would be fun to share site stats on the
site each month, to talk about how it hopefully grows. I'll do this at the
beginning of each month, to cover the previous one. But I wanted to share a
little bit now.
The time period covers December 1 through [...]
