BonFX graphic design blog crosses 1,000,000 page views!

March 19, 2012 by Douglas Bonneville

A small milestone for our humble little blog. I just noticed crossed a million page views a couple weeks ago. since launching at the end of 2009. Our most popular posts remain those focused on typography. The Big Book of Font Combinations and the Font Combinations app continue to grow in popularity as more people discover us. While a million page views is nothing compared to other graphic design blogs, it’s a lot for us considering how we’ve successfully carved out such a small niche. Remember, broad numbers don’t count nearly as much as a narrow, targeted audience. Big, focused numbers in your narrow target audience mean everything! And that’s what we’ve done and will continue to do: reach graphic designers and other casual typeface enthusiasts with particular typographic needs! What’s next? Let’s get to 2 million twice as fast :). With some cool things coming up in 2012 we can do it! Thanks for stopping by!

    I like your blog! Have you written anything about how typographical considerations differ for print vs. screen (web)?

    Hi Lisa: I haven’t written specifically about that no, but that is a great topic. I’ll put that in the idea box 🙂
