Hello Istanbul!



According to Google Analytics, last month saw a 300% visitor increase in the country of Turkey. Wow! I’m like some sort of international blogging playboy!

I also see increased view counts in France, Germany and Belgium. Woot wooooot! To all my German readers: Ich verwendete eine Web site, um diesen Satz in Deutschen zu übersetzen.*

My numbers in Poland have slipped. Have no fear, I talked to my European street team rep. and she assures me an aggressive viral marketing campaign is underway. Krakow, I’m coming!

In all seriousness, the combined visits from all those countries was 53. Not amazing, I know. It’s really cool that anyone outside my small group of friends gives a shit about anything I do. But Turkey? Even with the small numbers, wow. That’s weird.

Here’s a healthy dose of reality for joeavella.com: My most popular blog posts is this one: 7 Celebrities That May Be Zombies. And it’s found by the most popular tags on my blog: ‘goldie hawn’ and ‘buck cherry’. I think this is very funny.

I won’t do any more meta blog posts, aka blog posts about my blog. At least not until I’m blowing up in the Czech Republic.

*English translation: “I used a website to translate this sentence into German.”

    Just make sure when you aggressively come for Krakow you use the tried and true pincer movement. It also helps if they still fight on horseback too.

    I’m not in your small group of friends, but I totally give a shit about what you do. Why? Because you are, as Seth Rogan’s character says in Knocked Up, “one funny motherfucker.”

    And also because if Josh Roberts comments, I feel compelled to comment as well.

    Thanks guys! I really appreciate it.

    I’m done with my second draft! Going to kick it around this week and send it out to my reader’s circle this weekend. More on that in an upcoming blog post!

    If you do get an increase in Czech readers, please don’t insult them by calling them Soviets again.
