According to blogger tracking, my audience remains largely American. Strangely, Canadian content is actually up this year on this blog yet the percentage of Canadians reading this blog dipped. Where it used to be 60-40% in favor of the U.S. is now, if I'm reading the numbers correctly, 60-20%. Same with my e-Talian blog. Americans make up 43% of my viewership and Canada just 11%.
This despite my being listed on major Canadian (to go along with international ones) blog communities.
Thank you, America. But, Canada. Dudes.
To put it politely, you don't appeal to the liberal sensibilities of left-wing Canadians. To put it more bluntly, Americans are less educated, and your blog appeals to dumbies like us.
ReplyDeleteDon't feel bad, though. My blog's target audience is illeterate people, which is probably why it's doing as well as a radio program for the deaf.
You make the typical mistake in assuming Canadian left-wingers are "smart" and "progressive."

Most people outside Canada and US ended up on my site by searching for something else through Google.
Got the numbers through Feedjit.
You account for most of the 9% Canadian hits with Rob-bear, MoR is most of the 2% Italian hits.
Interesting. Thanks for that.
ReplyDeleteSo you too you have a majority American audience.
