Who in the World is Reading My Blog?

I'll close out the week (and the month as well) with another peek at some stats related to my blog. Yesterday we saw which posts were the most visited since the blog was launched back in 2009. Today, we'll examine just who is reading this tripe fascinating material.

As it turns out – amazingly – there are readers in countries all over the world.

Here's a map with an accompanying key showing the geographical areas where the majority of my visitors come from.

As expected, the good old U.S.A. comes in first. But surprisingly, France is second. I guess it's a good thing after all that I took all those years of French class at Masson and Admiral King, in case I want to tailor some specific French content for mes amis dans ce pays.

But then it gets kind of weird going down the list to the next in line. Singapore? Austria? Germany? All in the thousands?

Next are Canada and Hong Kong, which are evenly split with 84. I do write a lot about Canada, with posts about Niagara Falls, the Post Shredded Wheat factory, Billy Bee Honey, the Toronto Maple Leafs, Tim Hortons, etc. (All on a blog supposedly about Lorain County, Ohio – yeah, right.) But I'm not sure why Hong Kong has the same identical number.

The rest of the countries are a curious mix.

I'm kind of bumming though. I used to get a lot more hits from Russia back in 2016. I'm not sure why I've losing some of my comrades readers there.

At least some of my relic-tives in Ireland must have read my post about my Irish ancestors.
