Some people take longer, some people take shorter period of time to achieve this milestone. I took 3 years and 4 months to achieve it. Last weekend, 1 April 2012, my blog hits have passed 200,000 mark. Some hits are because of you, some are led by google search engine and some are referred by your blog.
Although blog hits don’t mean anything in a bigger scheme of things but it is a milestone that I would like to commemorate and most of all it is another great excuse to say a BIG thank you to everyone who has visited my blog over the years, recently visited and subscribe to this blog.
Thanks a million.
Congratulations! Your blog is one of my favourites and I hope you continue to write fantastic reviews for many years to come.

Thank you so much, I won’t be surprised if yours has reached 400,000!
Posted by JoV | April 3, 2012, 8:10 amOh, nowhere near! I’m not even at 200K! I started only 2 years ago, though.

Me too but I find difficulty in commenting on yours…
Posted by JoV | April 3, 2012, 8:11 amCongrats!!! I love your blog. Very informative and visitor-friendly, I must say. The magazine-style layout makes it so much easier to access!! Keep up the good work!!
P/S: BTW I am having trouble to comment without using my FB account as it requires me to log in the WordPress account I registered (which I never used)
so I will stick to commenting with my FB account

Thanks Kinna. Fingers crossed for the next 200,000.
Posted by JoV | April 3, 2012, 8:12 amDon’t you mean, instead of “thanks a million” maybe “thanks almost a quarter of a million”…. Congratulations on your new high watermark!
