I can’t believe it is three years since my very first post. Now three years later and 277 posts on here we are. I must say that I absolutely love searching for new stories to tell and often, well most of the time actually, I end up writing about something compleatly different to what I first started researching. Anyone who has picked up a history reference book to check a date or maybe ventured into Trove to confirm a fact can sympathise as to the ease with which you can go compleatly off on an different subject sometimes so far removed from the original topic it would be hard to imagine.
Just in case you might wonder what sort of posts were the most popular, it is often hard to work out. Sometimes hours and hours can be involved in putting together a story and finding the right photos to go with it and it gets quite a low number of views but lots of comments and another post which might be a single image can go off the radar. This simple photo of a baby’ grave is a good example. When re posted on Facebook it had over 17,000 page views.
However the post with the most views direct to the blog and on Facebook was by far the first and second sections of the Boulder Cemetery A-D and E-H with the following results:-
“I was unprepared for the overwhelming response to this post. I had thought the ‘page views’ on Facebook for the Kalgoorlie Cemetery were impressive at 14,000+ but as of today the page views for the Boulder Cemetery have been just over 30,000. It just goes to show that you just never quite can predict what visitors want to see. The cemetery records have been completed for some time now and we have been in the checking stage”
None of this would have been possible of course without you, my readers, and the over two thousand people who have been kind enough to register to receive my weekly newsletter.
Thank you to you all each and every one
