The stats show that each month more and more people are viewing the LDS Anarchy blog. The How I get out of jury duty post, in particular, is bringing a lot of new people here. For example, in the last 30 days, that post got 1,070 views, whereas the second most viewed post in the same time period was The hollow earth theory, the plasma model and Mormon theology, with 234 views.
The audience still seems to be primarily LDS, which is the group I addresss my remarks to, but there appears to be a lot of lurkers and probably a good portion of them are non-LDS. I may try a few posts directed at non-LDS to see if anyone outside of the LDS community is listening to this blog.
All-in-all, the numbers look encouraging and the feedback I’ve gotten from the comments sections is more than I anticipated. The blog appears to be growing in a healthy manner. It’s taken about 10 months to get to the 50,000 mark. I expect the blog to reach the 100,000 mark in much less time.
