Last Thursday IMOT broke an all time record for most views to my blog in one day after I published “10 reasons to vote for my blog” (very promising!) and also a record of 40 new subscribers in less than one week!
So, I wanted to write a short note to welcome the new subscribers and also thank all of you in general for your interest and continued support.
I would usually post stats by mid and end year, but I thought it would be interesting to share a few stats from WordPress, so that my newbies could make sure they were not missing out on the good stuff! I initially planned on sharing only first places, but then I thought you would be curious to know who placed second. So here they are:
- Most popular blog post ever! The Semantic Triangle: Words don’t mean, people mean. Second place: Onomasiological and semasiological approaches (both from the series of SmarTerms)
- Most popular post on termbases: A termbase, what you should know. Second place: Termbases: It’s not about the terms (The concept-oriented approach)
- Most popular page: Terminology 101, that now includes the terminology course with a collection of my most relevant blog posts. Second place: Readings in Terminology
- Most popular biography: Ferdinand de Saussure, not too far away from Eugen Wüster
- Most popular tool: AntConc, also very close to T-Manager
- Most popular project management post: Writing your terminology project goals. Second place: The Triple constraint of terminology projects
- Most popular interview: Rodolfo Maslias, Director of TermCoord, along with terminologist Uwe Muegge.
- Most popular organization: The European Association For Terminology (EAFT), followed by the Pan-Latin Terminology Network (REALITER) and its multilingual glossaries
- Most popular guest post: Terminology and naming by Jordi García Soler, only one view above second place: How scientific terminology can change our perception of life by Yolanda Gómez
- Most popular infographic: The birth of Terminology (the first steps) and second place was for From toddler to teen.
- Most popular blog post on resources: Conversion tools and difference checkers for language lovers. Second place: Readings, tools, and useful links for corpus analysis
- Most popular external resources by IMOT: Delicious page on terminology. Followed by my terminology Padlet
I have to say it’s hard to decide what’s my favorite, but I think IMOT will be breaking records soon again with my recent terminology course that I’m sure will become a fixture on Terminology 101. And remember that I have resources in Spanish, French, and Portuguese (By the way, the Spanish resources got first place for most visited page for resources in other languages).
Just as a fun fact, I’m always interested in looking at the words used for general searches in my blog to see what people are interested in, and I have to say the person who looked for “how to write names in Japanese” gets first place in originality. So maybe I should start writing a section in Japanese. LOL
Share the Terminology love!
