One of the cool things about blogging...your hits always increase

brazilian cherry hardwood flooring in westchester countyMy wordpress site (TheFlooringGirl.com) seems to be doing very well.  We are now up to over 11,000 hits/month and this # continues to grow each week.  The real measure, of course, are the phone calls we are getting...and the phones are ringing...a LOT.

 

3 weeks ago, I wrote a post highlighting the top 3 posts on my site.  Now, I'm looking back at them and seeing how much they've already grown.  In fact, they seem to be accelerating.

 

So, here they are again.  The top one has now exceeded my top post on Active Rain.


1.  Red Oak Flooring vs White Oak Flooring - What's the difference? 9,594 hits (was 8,282 hits 3 weeks ago).  This was written 1/8/12 and I'm hoping it will reach at least 12,000 by the end of the year (things may slow in December).

 

2.  Oil vs Water based polyurethane - which is better for refinishing your floors?  6,502 hits (was 5,184 hits 3 weeks ago.  Written 12/4/11. 

 

3.  Can you change the color of your hardwood floors? 5,953 hits.  Was 5,020 hits 3 weeks ago.  (Written 2/22/12). 

 

If you like any of these, and if you want to help me a bit with my SEO, it would great if you can go to my site and +1 them. (or give them a thumbs up if you have a facebook account...or both).
