Declining numbers

Since last November, visitor numbers have been declining by about a thousand a month. Perhaps readers who enjoy this blog could promote it by providing links to it from other blogs? At this rate, numbers will be down to nil in a couple of years.

A friend says that many people hit a blog by accident when they are seeking some particular word or idea through a search engine; and that on (or just before?) the feast that comes on February 14 I should include words that resonate with those hungry for lerve. Ideas?

Keep it clean.

  1. What, new collect for Quinquagesima?

    O LORD, who hast taught us that all our doings without lerve are nothing worth; Send thy Holy Ghost, and pour into our hearts that most excellent gift of lerve, the very bond of peace and of all virtues, without which whosoever liveth is counted dead before thee. Through.

  2. How splendid to learn that the example of the great Apostles to the Slavs still has such a resonance in this godless age – their philadelphia perfectly at the service of their theophilia! Hunger for such lerve is greatly to be encouraged.

  9. Take a lesson from the Church of England, and manage the decline.

  10. My numbers (http://wannabeanglican.blogspot.com/) are in decline as well. Perhaps interest in things Anglican is waning?

    Fr. Hunwicke, I have linked you for some time. Feel free to link me . . . even if I'm not a papalist. ;)

  11. Never mind the numbers, Father, keep up the good work! This is definitely one of the best reads on the net.

  12. It is not the quantity of readers but (myself excluded) the quality that counts. Most of your readers can comment with appropriate English wit. I am left with Californian befuddlement.
