Is less really more when it comes to blogging? There seems to be a pattern with many independent design blogs that have a substantial numerical following, be it on Twitter or Feedburner subscriber stats: the more popular they are, the less they blog. Is there a principle at work here?
Graphic design blog hits 100,000 visits
Just a little horn-tooting: we crossed 100,000 visits last week. It’s not much, but our first 6-digit tally of visitor totals feels significant for some reason. Unique page views crossed 160,000 too.
