I thought it Might be kind of a fun experiment to track my websites growth and post some real world numbers to follow my journey from my humble beginnings as a WordPress Novice to where I am today. I will be using Jetpacks SiteStats information for Traffic Stats & Graphs and StatBrain.com / Alexa.com for a broader view of my ranking in the World Wide Web. If it sparks enough interest – I will start to catalog my changes to the website and additional plugins to see how they correlate to my websites Traffic.
