From April, 2006, until 13:25 on December 29, 2008, when a guy from Berlin clicked on a link on hotboots.com to enter my website on my &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bootedman.com\/bootinfo\/patrolboots.html\">Guide to Motorcycle Police Patrol Boots<\/a>&#8221; and then poked around to view about 40 pages:  at this moment, <b>one million pages<\/b> have been viewed on my website.<\/p>\n<p>Each time someone views a page on a website, it is called a &#8220;page view.&#8221;  This isn&#8217;t the same thing as the number of visitors &#8212; the same person viewing 40 pages is one visitor.<\/p>\n<p>Well, anyway, at that specific time today, the website visitor from Berlin became the &#8220;lucky winner&#8221; by incrementing my page view count to ONE MILLION!  <\/p>\n<p>Who woulda thunk?  That means that tens of thousands of visitors have viewed one million pages on my website since I installed the view counter software in April, 2006.<\/p>\n<p>About half of my visitors enter my website using search engines, primarily Google.  About another 30% of my visitors come from links on HotBoots.com and its message board, &#8220;Boots On Line.&#8221;  This year, about 10% of my visitors come from links I put in on this blog to my website.  Then there are the &#8220;loyalists&#8221; from all over the world who for some reason or another, have bookmarked my website and visit daily, or sometimes even more often.  <\/p>\n<p>With almost 300 pages and about 5,000 images, there&#8217;s a lot on my website now, which grew from a small thing that I began to resolve a &#8220;little family conflict&#8221; (<a href=\"http:\/\/bootedharleydude.blogspot.com\/2008\/02\/why-did-i-create-my-own-web-site.html\">explained here<\/a>) into what it is now.  It&#8217;s fun, a great hobby, and keeps me in touch with my leather gear and boots.  <\/p>\n<p>Well, Mr. Berlin, THANKS!  And thanks to all for visiting my little booted &#038; leathered website.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bootedman.com\/\">Come for a visit any time<\/a>!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a onblur=\"try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}\" href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_yytsDp42pSs\/SVlm2zNwacI\/AAAAAAAAA-o\/O1htNhoEWK4\/s1600-h\/Website122908.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 384px;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_yytsDp42pSs\/SVlm2zNwacI\/AAAAAAAAA-o\/O1htNhoEWK4\/s400\/Website122908.jpg?w=584\" alt=\"\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5285368729342863810\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I saw this coming earlier this week, which is why I posted my &#8220;top 10 of the year&#8221; blog posts earlier.
