Wonders in the Dark has reached it’s second monumental milestone in the past months that warrants announcing on these pages. In fact this newest achievement trumps the past one, which was an acknowledgement of the number of posts the site has published since it’s inception In August of 2008.
Today (Saturday, May 26, 2012) the site surpassed two million page views (hits), a statistic that we are all extremely proud of. So many people are responsible for this staggering figure, one that kept the site on a favored list of places to stop on a regular basis. Above all it’s the writers and organizers who deserve the most acknowledgement and praise: Dee Dee, Allan, Jamie Uhler, Maurizio Roca, Jim Clark, Bob Clark, Jaime Grijalba, Tony d’Ambra, Joel Bocko, Dennis Polifroni and the many close friends, who I have mentioned previously on the thread that honored the total number of posts at Wonders in the Dark.
Thanks to all for enabling us to smile for the second time in three months.
Congratulations, guys.
Thanks much Adam!
Cheers. Enjoyable reading to be done here.
And cheers to you my friend. Many thanks!
Congratulations! So very happy for the WitD crew.
Thanks very much for that Brandie!
Sam, I think’ll you’ll get this one:
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wasn’t quite prepared for that ending Pierre!!! I never watched this film to be honest, but now I’d like to!!!
Sam – it’s a TV show from the 1950s – each week, millionaire John Beresford Tipton would dispatch executive sec’y Michael Anthony with a cashier’s check for $1 million to some poor deserving wretch
I’d love to dig up old episodes of this show Pierre!!!!
Congratulations, one and all.
Thanks David!
Congrats all!!! Great to hear!! Nice work everyone!
You’ve been a very big part of this Jon. Many thanks!!!
Wow, amazing! Congratulations!!! WitD sure deserves this and more. Just to strike a perspective, my blog has recently crossed 250 thousand, which is one-eighth of the mark WitD has crossed. Once again, wow!!!
Well Shubhajit, your figures are staggering, considering your site is basically managed and written by yourself only. Thanks so much as always for your very kind words!
Where’s the hit counter? You should put it up – might attract investors
I can’t think of a more deserving film blog than this one to have so many readers! Congrats!
David, I looked for a way to make this counter appear, but I can’t seem to sort it out; will keep trying. Thanks for the very kid words.
Super! You deserve 2 million more! Congratulations.
Thanks very much for that Marilyn!!!
Congratulations on reaching this landmark!
Many thanks Judy!
This incredible achievement does not surprise me at all. Congratulations to everyone at Wonders!
Thanks very much Peter for being there for us over a long period!
Congratulations to Sam, Allan and everyone else involved!
Thanks so much Stephen! I remember months back you had noted we were approaching this threshold.
Yeah, what’s amazing about this stat is that (in this best sense of a much misused word) this remains an amateur site – that is to say, run by people who have other day jobs, managed without a professional team (though the very savvy tech advice of Tony d’Ambra has been a big boon to the site), and of course not-for-profit (I know ads went up recently, but I can’t imagine they bring too much revenue…yet anyway!). Sam, you can really pat yourself on the back for this accomplishment. You’ve created one of the more popular movie blogs out there with sweat, tears, and sheer enthusiasm. Congratulations.
Thanks as always Joel, for imparting your own authoritative knowledge of the site’s history, and of bringing the potent dose of feel-good spirit. Your own huge role here can not be underestimated.
