Analytics: November 2014

Last month’s traffic was good to Wonderful Machine, as the search site saw 12,038 sessions and 25,077 pageviews, with the number of page views up 30% from this time last year.

Below is the geography stats from last month. The United States led the way, followed by the UK, Canada, Germany and France.

Here is the blog traffic from last month. It generated 15,639 sessions and 58,343 pageviews, with the percent of new sessions up 2% from this time last year. I also included the “social interaction” below, which shows which blog posts got the most traffic from our social media platforms, such as Facebook and Twitter. Hillary Maybery‘s work was popular, as well as many of our posts about recent consulting projects.

Here are some of our most popular blog posts from last month:

• An Elk Hunt with Hillary Maybery 
• Marketing: Portfolio Meetings for Samantha Wolov 
• Julie Bidwell: Eat Clean, Live Well
• Photo Editing: A Tasteful Edit for Dina Mande

And below are a few recent successes:

• “I use the photographer search on your website all the time, it’s the best!” – Adina LoBiondo/ Sierra Magazine
• “Some of the most valuable help I’ve received, within the past year or so, has been from Wonderful Machine. Their editors are always available and willing to offer input.” – Erin Kelly/ Photographer
• WM Producer Craig Oppenheimer worked with Momentum Worldwide to hire Josh Ritchie/Margate, FL for a three day shoot for Bentley.
• “I booked my first shoot from WM recently, a magazine cover! Awesome! Thank you!” – Jonathan Thorpe/ Alexandria, VA
• “Hey everyone! I’m super happy to finally be able to share with you an ad I shot for Ford featuring Time Magazine Dealer of the Year Jeff Teague and children of the El Dorado, Arkansas Boys and Girls Club. The ad ran in a July issue of Automotive News. The crew at Team Detroit was a dream to work with on this and I can’t thank my friends at Wonderful Machine enough for recommending me for the job!” – John David Pittman/ Little Rock, AK
