60,000, as in 1,000 times 60

thank you for the correction Martin DelVecchio

All Time 29,506,608-Within a Couple of Weeks we should hit the 30 Million Mark

You know usually when the kids go back to school we get a little drop off from the heady numbers we do in June and July during our Fiesta and Horribles Parade Coverage, but we’ve been adding so many subscribers that this thing called GMG just keeps on chugging and growing so there hasn’t been any drop off.  Just killing it. 

Will there be a day when we do 100,000 a day consistently?  I don’t know, but if you ever told me that our hyperlocal blog about our community would be doing almost double the number of Gloucester residents on a daily basis 4 years ago I would have called you crazy.

It’s funny because every time some newspaper of magazine interviews me for a piece on GMG they ask about the daily viewership and I tell them, then the magazine comes out a month or two later and the average views jump even higher.  We’re a freight train baby! 

In the North Shore Art Throb piece on GMG when Lou Mandarini asked me what we were doing for numbers I told him- 28,000 to 48,000 a day and that was just a month and a half ago.  If he asked me today I would say 38-56,000 a day. #Boom!

Gotta be doing something right.

An old timer calls me on the phone yesterday and tells me that I really ought to watch the language I use on GMG because it would be a shame to see us lose all the great things that we’ve built up here.  I’ll take it all under advisement buddy.

We also posted our 23,000th post this morning.

That’s a whole lot of G Town Love.  I’d say we’ve got a pretty good catalog of Gloucester material.  if there is something you want to know about a search is worthwhile in the search box in the right hand column on the Blog.

I remember the first day GMG hit 100 views in a day and how psyched I was.  Then I remember 1000, then 10,000 views, then I had the number of resident’s in the City of Gloucester as a target- BLAM blew that shit out of the water.  I thought that there was a finite number of people with the nature of GMG being so hyperlocal that we would be bouncing off of barriers and topping off but no way Jose.  Not yet anyway, the growth just keeps coming.

It’s a freight train baby.  Jump on board and join the party or get run down by the beast.

#Boom! #KillinIt!

We gots a ways to go baby!  Let’s Do This!!!!!!
