For the first time we hit 1 000 000 (ie 1 million!) page views in a calendar month! (and Feb was only 28 days!)
Craig:
How does Podiatry Arena rank in "hits" relative to other medical and podiatry websites?

Its always difficult to know with a large degree of certainity, but if we use data from Alexa, Comcast and Compete we are most visited Podiatry site on the web. The margin over some sites is substatial (but none of the 3 agencies are the most accurate and none of them monitor all sites).
For eg Alexa has: Podiatry Arena as the 257,718th most visited site on the web APMA as the 618,881st most visited site on the web Podiatry Management as the 1,472,132nd most visited site on the web That Foot Site as the 3,419,801st most visited site on the web Podiatry Exchange as the 6,640,480th most visited site on the web
(but this is based on somewhat biased sampling)
BTW - "Hits" is a really bad metric and some sites trumpet that. All 'hits' are the number of files sent to a browser by a web server. Each picture on a page is a file. Podiatry Arena's home page is made up of many files - so we could claim an extraoridnary number of hits.. What counts is unique visitor and page views --- we hit one million page views for a calendar month for the first time last month!
Congratulations to Pod Arena especially to Craig who I knows works very hard keeping it a great site - plus congrats to all the posters who make it such a great place to learn and keep up to date as to what is going on around the world

Yep, Craig, you can officially now call February 2009 a "mega-month" for Podiatry Arena.

For those that get impressed by "hits" (which no one should), we almost reached 6 million hits for March (what is way more important than hits is unique visitors and page views) - and we had 1.2 million pages views in March!!
