Milestone: Hamlet's Bible exceeds 10,000 views from 84 countries

MILESTONE: I'm grateful to report that, on the morning of October 20, this blog, Hamlet's Bible, passed 10,000 views from a total of 84 different countries, over a period of about 20 months. Here's a screen shot of the blog's analytics, showing the number of view from the top 18 countries, also including views from "Unknown Region" and "Other":

I'm guessing that "Unknown" is views from places where Blogger is unable to identify the country of origin, and "other" includes all those where the origin could be identified, but the number of views was under 23.

LIST OF 84 COUNTRIES: Here is the list of the 84 countries from which the blog received views since March 1, 2019:

You might wonder: How did I come up with this list of 84 countries? At a certain point, I began checking the blog's analytics on a weekly basis, and posting a "Thank you to readers" each week. I looked back through these posts and compiled the larger and more accurate list that way. (This still does not include views from countries that Blogger is unable to identify, so apologies if your country of origin was left out. Feel free to comment and let me know if I missed yours.)

PREVIOUS LINKEDIN POSTS:
I mentioned that the 10k views were only since early March of 2019; some of my regular readers know that, before switching to this blog format, I posted weekly on LinkedIn, since June 30, 2017. Most of those posts were under 1300 characters, the limit LinkedIn sets for brief posts, plus a few essays.

I transferred all of those LinkedIn posts and essays to this blog in early 2019, but I did not keep records of the numbers of views those posts received before the transfer. They are, hopefully, easier to find and search by keyword here on Blogger.

LinkedIn (for a brief period) shows how many people view one's posts, and how many of those views are from first connections or other, but it doesn't show how many of those actually take the time to read the post or essay (or, since March of 2019, how many click through to read the blog post). LinkedIn analytics are helpful (and fun to view the list of universities or theater companies, and occupations of viewers represented among viewers), but limited in that way.

After writing the blog posts since March of 2019, I also post links to them on Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook groups; Blogger shows how many actually clicked the blog link.

Thank you to all of you who made this happen, and whose readership helps motivate me to continue researching and sharing the fruits of my research. I am grateful and humbled.
