January 2008 was a breakthrough month for my blog, as the number of visitors increased two fold. Not only this there were other milestone achieved such as the visitor count crossed the magic figure of 10000 and totally there were 12 posts.

There is 111.86% increase in Pageviews and average time on site has also increased. There is improvement in bounce rate with a decrement of 5 percent.

The major reason for the exponential rise can attributed to my six post series about Andaman trip and also my review about the most awaited Kannada movie Gaalipata.

The below table gives the breakup of top 4 keywords by which visitors were directed to my blog from google.

Keywords Containing	Visits	Content
Gaalipata	78	Gaalipata : One step forward, two steps back
Andaman	36	Andaman Trip
Kudremukh	22	Kudremukh Home Stay
Lalbagh	21	Lalbagh Flower Show

The report also indicates that people searching for Lalbagh flower show were directed to my blog and my experiences of Kudremukh Home stay(in Nov 2006) is still getting hits.

Thanks to all the visitors, regular readers and also to Google for Blogger, Search and Analytics.
