Finally, after two years and a month of blogging -- almost two years to the day of installing Site Meter to count and analyse my site traffic -- I have reached the milestone of 100,000 page views.
Not visits, unfortunately. There I'm just at 64,000. Visits stagnated for several months after I pretty much ceased writing in Italian; Italian readership fell by at least 50% over 6 months or so. I have to thank Tom Wark of Fermentation again for his interview with me in September, which kick-started readership growth from the US and other English-speaking countries.
So far there are 583 posts and 2025 comments on this site. I'll keep on with this thing regardless of the readership. As I said in the Fermentation interview, it's become a necessary thing to do.
All the best for the next 100.000 page views and 583 posts on your site. It's great to read you on Italian wines!
I hope to meet you next week in Alessandria!!!

Again, Joan, it isn't me but Domenico who will be in Italy.
Domenico has informed me that he won't be able to go to Alessandria. He IS planning to meet you in Barcelona late in December. Ciao.

Good work, Terry, and please do keep it up. I just hit my 100th post a week or two ago but I've got an awful lot of catching up to do!

Va bene, Domenico, appena ritornato d'Alessandria dove Giuliano e Gianni mi hanno spiegato i tuoi agenda, faciamo appuntamento per Barcellona!

Joan, purtroppo era impossibile per Domenico andarci pero' io e mio socio Ken siamo tanto lieti di andare a Valencia e Barcellona a visitare un sacco di produttori e (spero) di assaggiare tanti vini spagnoli dai ragazzi dell'Enoteca d'Italia.
Il tempo vola e le nostre vacanze natalizie sono prossissime. Shockingly so!
A presto in Spagna...
