Busy week on BlogStorm: 70,000 uniques in 3 days

by Patrick Altoft on August 16, 2007

The last few days have been pretty busy on BlogStorm, breaking all records for traffic.

Thanks to two stories on the Digg front page, a load of traffic from StumbleUpon and a front page article on Sphinn the site has had 75,000 unique visitors in the last 3 days.
The hosting handled the traffic well and didn’t even slow down under the load from Digg. In fact for 2 days it ran at 100% uptime and the third day it was at 99.34%. I use Burton Hosting and pay $21 per month.

We still have one advertising spot available at a cost of £200 per month.

Kind regards from Spain,

Have you had an references generated resulting in consulting? I noticed your blog a few days ago from a digg post, thought ‘i know why he’s writing about that!’ - i am doing some very simular tactics - but havent put myself out there as a consultant yet…
