Looking back a year later it’s clear the blog has come a long way, this has been largely due to Patrick’s excellent work during the last six months in addition to the combined growth of subscribers and search traffic.
For 2008 we aim to continue providing the quality content which our readers enjoy and subscribe to, hopefully making significant improvements to these stats ready for next years post! :)
