Hats off to Ron Warnick for his excellent Route 66 News blog which recorded its millionth hit on February 11th.
This is always one of the first places I check when I go on the internet.
Said Ron, "I suspected that Route 66 needed a one-stop, timely news source when I created it, and the site's growth has only confirmed that."
The 100,000th page view was in July 2006, less than 8 months after the launch. He has since posted 2,601 times, and he was only shooting for one post a day. There have been over 3,500 comments as well and the filter has stopped 157,000 spams.
For those of you who are "Cars" movie fans, his most popular post has been "A Route 66 Guide to the 'Cars' Movie" where he shows where the ideas came from. There have been 84,000 page views of it since posting in June 2006.
The biggest day of activity was June 23, 2007 when there were 6,720 page views.
This blog sets the marker for all road blogs.
Congratulations Ron for a Job Well-Done. --RoadDog
RoadDog's RoadLog Blog: Being my travels down those great two lane highways of this nation as well as news I learn about them from media sources. Since I'm also very interested in historic preservation, there will be a lot of that as well.
The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.
