In 2008, I spent a lot of time blogging, both here in Under The Stairs, and on my PowerShell scripts blog (http://pshscripts.blogspot.com) and my corporate blog (http://cacorner.blogspot.com). The first two of these blogs had a lot of PowerShell content (especially the PowerShell Scripts blog which was all PowerShell).
Traffic varied a bit over the year, but really picked up in the autumn, as follows:
| Month | Under The Stairs | Under The Stairs | PowerShell Scripts | PowerShell Scripts |
| January | 4,940 | 6,738 | ||
| February | 4,919 | 6,683 | ||
| March | 4,882 | 6,724 | ||
| April | 4,258 | 5,728 | ||
| May | 4,118 | 5,673 | ||
| June | 4,157 | 5,699 | ||
| July | 4,696 | 6,521 | 438 | 764 |
| August | 4,234 | 5,846 | 183 | 285 |
| September | 4,292 | 5,830 | 165 | 252 |
| October | 4,649 | 6,267 | 253 | 363 |
| November | 5,588 | 7,642 | 434 | 711 |
| December | 6,743 | 9,636 | 1,132 | 1,884 |
As this table shows, I had more traffic towards the end of the year, which I attribute to posting more. I was motivated by what I saw at TechEd to up my level of posting, which has paid off in more traffic.
The PowerShell Scripts blog was started in July. However from Aug-September, it did not see much traffic mainly because I was did not post during those months. (due to being pretty busy with my day job).
With the release of PowerShell V2 CTP3, interest in the new features has driven a lot of traffic to both blogs. And with the newly released Windows 7 betas, I hope this interest will continue.
