Well, ACOUP broke 4,000,000 page views for the year yesterday (as measured by WordPress) and I have decided to be happy about it(acoup.blog)
We don't do these things for views, of course, but if we are going to do public engagement, we must engage some of the public
For those who will inevitably ask, Google Analytics tracks very closely with the WordPress numbers, but in both unique IPs and hits is about 10% lower.
I don't have google numbers for total lifetime page views, but WP numbers are just a hair over 9m since we started in mid-2019.
On average over the year I've had something like 60,000-80,000 unique visitors to the website in any given month. Of those, 5,568 signed up for email updates and 1,183 currently support the project via Patreon (patreon.com).
For a project that remains mostly a solo project (with the occasional guest post, including a really neat one this past month by James Baillie acoup.blog), I remain pretty startled by just how many people have been reading.
