Almost every day I take a few minutes to hop over to Google Analytics to find out how many people are visiting my websites. I have a number of websites that I keep up including a web store, a personal blog, a charity website and LDS Family.net. Almost every time I check the stats on these sites the graph looks about the same. Some days my sites receive a little more visits than others but usually nothing to jump up and down about until a couple of days ago.
I was at home, be bopping around the internet when it hit me that I hadn’t checked Google Analytics in a little while. My son’s were watching me for some reason that night as I surfed around. As I pulled up my Analytics I clicked on the stats that showed me how LDSFamily.net was doing. To my Shock and Awe, I noticed that in January, one of the days had received 149 hits. 
Wow, I normally average 10 hits a day. This was huge! I immediately started to track down those hits to find out what happened. I dug deeper and deeper into the analytics cavern of information to discover the nugget of information I was looking for. After a little seraching I found that almost all of those hits came from a site called mormontimes.com. Humm, I wondered, why on earth would I be getting a bunch of hits from momontimes.com? I took out my figurative pick ax to chisel out the answer and here is what I found.
Every day, there is a lady named Emily W. Jensen at the Mormon Times that skouers the internet for intersting articles about Mormons or people of the LDS Faith. When she finds something interesting, she posts a small blurb about the post and puts up on something called “Today in the Bloggernacle“. My blog post about visiting the Wrong Ward was featured as one of the posts to read on January 18th. How cool it that?
Thank you Mormon Times and the Daily Bloggernacle for noticing my post and for mentioning it on your website.
