Dreamtime Sail blog hits 150 000 page views!!!!!
WOW!!!!!!!! Our little cruising blog from Downunder has just clicked past 150,000 page views. We know there are blogs out there that probably attract that much traffic a month but for us reaching the 150k mark is a significant milestone, particularly as we have also recently topped the 10,000 per month on a regular basis.

| It's official - we've clicked past 150,000 page views. |
In January 2013 we posted ‘A blog about sailing blogs’which told the story of how our Dreamtime Sail blog was born in early 2011. It referred to how for the first six months the blog gained all of 20 to 30 readers a month and that we’d considered giving up and deleting it. Then we realised how good a record it was becoming of our sailing travels and adventures. We were crewing and didn’t have our own boat at that time and the blog was virtually our own ship’s log which would be of great personal value in years to come.
Over time the readership began to grow, slowly at first, then a little more quickly. By that January of 2013 we were marvelling that it had exploded to ‘almost 2,500 per month’ as we sailed Alcheringaaround the Mediterranean Sea.
Fast forward to May 2015 when we were preparing Our Dreamtime for our her first extended passage through Australia’s Great Barrier Reef and our all time readership cracked 80,000 after a little over four years of blogging with over 4,000 a month keeping the total ticking over.
Well today we reached another milestone by passing the 150,000 mark. Our monthly readership now tops 10,000 and is continuing to climb.
We’d like to say a huge thank you to our readers from all over the world who continue to log in and ride along with us onboard Our Dreamtime. It makes all the countless hours spent on the blog seem worthwhile. Thank you. Thank you.
