Okay for the record I actually NEVER visit C4P these days, as they stopped being relevant about four years ago.
However somebody recently sent me some links which I found kinda interesting.
As you all know there is a site called Alexa which analyzes website traffic and ranks them based on popularity.
I also never visit there myself because according to my therapist constantly seeking validation by checking a website ranking your blog is "A cry for help Jesse."
Anyhow based on an e-mail I received I went ahead and visited Alexa to check out the rankings for C4P. And what I found there was a little strange to say the least.
As you can see the vast majority of the internet traffic going to C4P comes from New Zealand of all places.
They are ranked only 175,754 in America but a rather incredible 1,521 in New Zealand.
By contrast the Sarah Palin Channel is ranked 162,949 in the US and 61.3% of their traffic comes from America. Which seems about right.
Soooo, what explains the fact that C4P has so many Kiwi visitors?
Is this fake internet traffic that was purchased by C4P? Is there a glitch in Alexa's algorithm? Or is it possible that Palin is wasting her time in North America and should take that 15 hour flight to the self proclaimed "God Zone" where she could apparently reign as queen?
I
But if they DID buy visitors off of the internet, why did they buy so few that they still only rank 306,239 globally? That's not going to impress anybody.
Yep, it's a mystery alright.
By the way for those who are curious this is how IM ranks over at Alexa.
Not bad, not bad at all.
