At some point last week Mancubist had its one millionth recorded view. I’m impressed, particularly as this is only views of individual posts and not things like the homepage or search results. I’m getting roughly 500 visits a day now, with each visitor looking at 5-6 pages.

Subscriber numbers have grown too: over 500 RSS readers, 250 email subscribers and just over 100 followers on Twitter. And I thought the latter was just a flash in the pan.

You’ll have noticed that my posting has been less frequent in the last couple of months though. This is mostly because I’ve been away, working hard and running new things like RainyCityStories.com. I’m also in the process of launching a Manchester music blog – so if you like Mancubist and you’re not averse to a mix of folk, Americana and experimental music, check it out.
