Today IS a day for greatness! And weirdness!
So, I got my monthly reports from Google Analytics for September for my three websites, so I went on over there for a second and found I had over 12 visitors CURRENTLY on my website and my visitors for today was over 300! All of them coming from Facebook.
I was like, what... the heck. They were all going to the same page and most were mobile. The name of the post is 9 Best Books About Cats in 2019. Okay? The title is relevant to the story, I promise. It was actually just a short post I did because I was really lazy that week and wrote a 5k word article just the week before and figured I my readers could use a break.
So this article is BARELY 1,000 words and was done because I really loved this book I read about rescuing kittens by an internet famous kitten rescuer. She's actually on the list twice, which includes the number one spot, because I really, really loved it.

So I did a Facebook search for the title of my blog post that was getting so much traffic. I found out that the author of that book I loved so much, who has legions of fans, posted a link to the page on her Facebook page an hour ago (as of 7:30pm). An HOUR and I've got over 300 views on this one freaking page.
Now, most of those aren't going to convert or anything, because these are people who love kittens and this internet celebrity and my site isn't kitten geared towards cuteness and is still very new with not a lot of content. YET. They are simply going over and checking out what books I have on the list to see her listed. That said, just WOW!
One hour. Over 300 hits.
Crazy! I'm curious how she found it as it isn't exactly high in Google or anything as it's only a week or so old.
That said, one little "I was too lazy to make a real post" post and I went mini-viral on FB. Crazy! Shows you exactly the crazy stuff people want to share online. ^_^ (Keep in mind my site is only a bit over 3 months old. 300 visitors in one day is INSANE).
Today is a good day for me and my barn cats!
