I have been experiencing an unprecedented spike in traffic over the last couple of days. Not the three hundred plus hits per day I received during the week I was guest editor last year, but still. As of nine thirty this evening I had received one hundred and twenty five unique visitors today. More than three times my average thirty five to forty hits per day. Yesterday I received one hundred and seventy seven unique visitors and two hundred and eighteen page views. The infuriating thing is, I have no idea why.
My statcounter.com hit counter, due to AOL journals restrictions on using java code, does not show me any referral stats. I don't know what site my visitors are arriving from. I can only assume that somewhere, someone with a high volume of traffic has linked to me, but I do not know who that might be.
If you are a first time visitor, drop me a line, and let me know where you came from. Please?

Hugs, Angela
paul, i would like to thank you and the previous commentor for a genuine chuckle this evening. i have no idea why there would be so much increased traffic of late. i know you enjoy it while it lasts, but i also understand wanting to know the why-fer/how-come behind it. grins, debra (ps i'm "tubing" up from ms. sigh, sometimes, i am embarrassed by my fellow americans...)
I pimped you off on my journal.
Dianna
That must be it.

Uh, duh Paul... you put an entry on CarnivAOL... I pimped you... Dianna pimped you... I am sure others did... hello??? Too many Canadians today????? lol
be well,
Dawn
ps... since you can't read my voice inflection... it was very teasing and playful!
Well I'm not a newbie, but if it's not to late in the evening, I wanted to up your stats by one more, just for the fun of it :o)
Take care oh popular one.........

Hi Paul. I have had the same thing happen to me before as well. Wish there was a way to trace the linkage on journals. There probably is but I'm not that savvy. yet. I came here from Dianna's journal to CarnivAOL and thought I might as well stop by and say hi. So hi. : ) Shelly
I was gonna send you over to Technorati, but looks as though you've already found the source. Good for you, Paul.... just enjoy it ! Tina
I'm wondering if Technorati put you up on their featured list for a bit. That could do it, methinks.

Quietly slipping into room, making note of my moniker et al, now must go back to read all mentined in Carnival Aol. Hope to enjoy it. Cathy
Hi !!!!!!
You might not know this but I have been reading your journal but I haven't written you to let you know that I've been here ( I've sorta been hanging around like a ghost ) or what you might call " The Invisible Lady ". Your journal is quite interesting and I'm sure you have lots of visitors who come by though you might not know they are hanging around such as myself. I have come here through the transportation provided by J-Land. I also keep a journal here at J-Land titled "Dear Diary" here is a link ---------------> http://journals.aol.com/southernmush/DearDiary/
My journal isn't as great as yours but I thought you might like to know that I've been here and I've wanted to say hello. Anyway......thanks for allowing me to visit. Take care.
It's probably because folks are looking to see if you answered their question.

Good show, what? :)
way to go Paul

Large Marge sent me...no...it was really Dan. Although, Dan doesn't know he did. Heck, Dan doesn't even know me!
Got your link after reading trickytrickey.
