CleverDude.com has hit 1,000,000 page views!
Here’s an arbitrary multiple of 10 for you: CleverDude.com has hit 1 million page views since inception less than 3 years ago. Check out my running tally here. Also, I have over 600,000 unique visitors and almost 1,100 articles during that time too.
Now, other personal finance blogs have hit double or triple that number in the same or less time, but for a site I still consider a hobby (because writing for a business would no longer be fun), I think it’s a pretty remarkable achievement.
My goal with this site has never been to get the most visitors or page loads, or even to make much money. I just really enjoyed writing. Recent things like school and work have gotten in the way of that enjoyment, but I haven’t given up!
So, thank you to all my visitors, whether you intended to come here or not. Next up, 1 million visitors! Ooh, I guess I should write something that makes you want to come here…

Congrats dude, 1,000,000 is huge. If I got there in the next two years I’d be proud. Even the biggest of the PF blogs still represent a small fraction of the blogging community. I think we still if a lot of room to grow. Congrats again.

Great Stats! Exciting stuff. I think the coolest part about that number is that you still have fresh information/posts and I remember when we were discussing politics I even had a brief E-Mail exchange with you.
I have to wonder just how many of your fav inspirations (older PF Blogs) are still being updated?
