Hello all!

Here are Lead Safe Mama, LLC’s final readership and outreach numbers for October 2024.

The reach and impact of this work continues to grow, with so many months this year coming in at the “best ever” for that month!

Some highlights:

October 2024 was our Best October Ever with 561,441 unique page views!
October 2023 was our previous “Best October Ever” with 327,849 unique page views.
This means we saw an increase of more than 71.2% in readership over last October! That’s simply AMAZING! Truly amazing!
While this year’s October did not make it into our “top 10 months of all time,” a more than 71% increase in readership did just miss landing October in the top 10 (at 12th place — the 12th best month of all time for reach and readership here on this website).
Jetpack (the software we use for tracking and reporting on all of these numbers) recently upgraded (changed) how it tracks all the data — so some of our metrics look a little different than in previous months — but the numbers still look amazing and are in the same ballpark.
While we don’t have access to some of our stats from the old version of Jetpack, with the new version, we now have quicker access to some additional really fun and interesting numbers… specifically, how many PEOPLE visit the website each month and each year (as well as what countries all of those people live in — you can see some of those numbers below)!
With some of these new “touch-of-a-button” features we now know:
- We had 169,990 unique individuals visit this website in October 2024 alone and
- As of today we have had a total 1,895,335 unique visitors this calendar year (2024)! THAT’S ALMOST TWO MILLION PEOPLE that are a part of this movement this year (including YOU)!
As context for the above stats, last year (our “best year ever” up to this point) we had a total of 5,764,660 unique page views from 1,924,721 unique visitors! (See first graph below.)
Prior to that, another highlight was in 2019 (second graph below) when we had 2,124,934 unique visitors that calendar year! (Right before the pandemic blew up and slowed the growth of the reach and impact of this work… “just a bit!”) A big difference is that back then (2019), folks were reading an average of about one and a half articles with every visit to the website, but now they (YOU!) are reading an average of three pages with each new person visiting!
Since (as of today, 11/3/2024) we are at 5,717,692 unique page views for the calendar year, we are surpassing that record (compared to last year’s 5,764,660 unique page views) in two or three days. This means that likely, by the end of the day on November 6, we will officially have had more page views this calendar year than any other previous year!
We’ll also be passing last year’s total visitors count to the site in a week or so — with almost two months still left in the year to go!
We are fast approaching what has been our “Long-Term Goal” for reach and readership for awhile, now. (For those who are new here, that goal is to see an average of more than 20,000 unique page views each day on the LeadSafeMama website for a total of more than 7,300,000 unique page views each year/ a minimum of at least 610,000 page views each month.)
