A Look Back at 2012
2012 was a great year for my blog! I gained a lot of great new readers, got to have some awesome giveaways and wrote a lot of posts that apparently a lot of your liked!
I started posting more crafts and activities for kids this past year. My top viewed post this year was my “Beary” Special (non-candy) Valentine treat idea!
Be sure to check out these other great Valentine craft posts also:
And another craft was in my top five most visited posts – Kid’s Frugal Fun Paper Towel Roll Airplane
I did a few posts on What $5 Can Get – Couponer vs. Non-Couponer. My second post in that series was my second most visited post in 2012! See it here.
Also, check out the other posts in that series:
I also gained a lot of Fred’s shoppers as readers this year! My fourth most visited post was about the new SmartBucks/SmartCard program Fred’s started early in 2012!
Here are some fun facts about my blog traffic in 2012:
About 55,000 tourists visit Liechtenstein every year. This blog was viewed about 170,000 times in 2012. If it were Liechtenstein, it would take about 3 years for that many people to see it. Your blog had more visits than a small country in Europe!
In 2012, there were 4,907 new posts (that’s an average of 13-14 posts a day), growing the total archive of this blog to 7,253 posts.
The busiest day of the year was February 18th with 2,063 views. (That day is my wedding anniversary. A ton of people visited to read this post about my anniversary. How funny!)
I got to do a lot of reviews this year. Here’s some of my favorite products (and places and events!) I got to review this year!
Soda Stream at Home Soda and Sparkling Beverage Maker
Ornaments with Love personalized Christmas ornaments
Ghirardelli Holiday Chocolates (YUM!)
Jake and the Neverland Pirates Party Supplies from Discount Party Supplies
And on a personal note, I lost 33 pounds in 2012!
Thanks for being a reader! I can’t wait to see what 2013 has in store!
