TRC Data 9-9-2016

Just in case you missed it....

TRC Statistics, August 1-7, 2016

Time for another update:

This handy little chart comes weekly via email, without effort. Nice.

The following chart from our data site can be manipulated to select specific spans of time and pull various data, and well, there is color, so it is pretty.

Notice the new Growth Plan at the top, along with our "Overall Industry Ranking."  Not too shabby! I'll take a B- overall, any day!

Stated simply, we have over 8,500 web page views, 200+ individual blogs posted, and 820 (and counting) comments to blogs. We continue to flirt with 80-100 page views on average, per day. All of this data has been generated in only 3 months. We are healthy and active! We are also starting to pick up a few new regular readers. 

Here is the deal, you matter! If you have posted blogs, thank you. Please post more. I love to see what you are doing, too. If you haven't posted, please at least attempt it. It is very easy, and it doesn't have to be a masterpiece. Copy something you found interesting on Facebook, or post a picture you like (see previous blog with screen shots for direction.)  

Also, when you do peek in throughout the day, make sure you leave a comment. I can see when people visit, but you and others can't. By posting a comment, others get confirmation that they "didn't kill the blog, " or worry they might have "posted a dud." It is the friendly, nice thing to do. If you are new to our site, please leave a comment. We welcome new input. We value it. 

HeyI love you guys.I learn from you everyday. See the emojis within the blog? Thanks to Mini for inspiring me to learn something new.  Keep smiling, friends.

I adore all of you guys. Thanks for being here...

TRC Data: July 11-17, 2016

Quick Update:

Merrily we roll along!

In 2 months time:

We are rapidly approaching 7,000 page views!

We have
160 blog posts!

We are averaging 
~100 page views daily!

630+ comments and counting!

Extreme thanks to those who have authored blogs. This is important to keeping us diverse and interesting!  If you haven't tried it, please do. It is easy, and we are here to help you, if needed.

Remember to talk our page up, and leave comments when you peek in to visit, to let others see that the page is active. Share posts to Facebook and to your friends. New input is vital, and can add so much to the fun.

Congratulate yourselves on the process! I've noticed that we are back to celebrating and playing again. What we've accomplished as a group in a few short weeks is more than amazing!  Cheers!

Blogging Made SUPER EASY

Okay, I'm really begging you to try.......

Click New Post from the toolbar.  It will look like this:

Put in a Title. Then, type something in the box. 

If you've had enough, just click the Orange Publish button and you are done.  But, wait.....

Still feeling brave?  Add a picture with the Picture Icon next to the word Link

A new box pops up that looks like this:

Click Choose Files and select the picture you want to add, then click the Add Select button on the bottom.

Click the Orange Publish button on the top toolbar and you have posted your blog.
If you screw up, you can delete it. If you have trouble, I can fix it, pretty up the alignment, or get rid of it. No worries!

Please try. If you can Facebook, you can blog. We all want to read someone else's point of view: what is making you laugh, or what you are thinking about.

TRC Data, May 30 - June 5, 2016

 Total data:           
Last week's data:

Overall:               

Amazing data for not really trying. 

3,013 page loads in the first 4 weeks!

The visits are all targeted, the data shows they aren't being forwarded from random, outside Google hits. You, and a few others are visiting the page and using it. Talk it up, pat yourself on the back! Keep those authored blogs coming!  Please try to leave more comments and initiate more conversation. At times I still get a panicky feeling that I'm talking to myself. 

TheRealClubhouse Facebook Page

Hello friends, daily readers, and visitors to TheRealClubhouse.

Our Facebook page is something that made the trek with us to the new location. I began posting to Facebook as the Sheriff in 2010. Hundreds of posts were posted, reminding and suggesting that people visit and check into our website. We expanded our market through the city of Racine and beyond by linking to local merchants, news websites, and places of business. Some of our regulars over the years found us through Facebook.

We are still represented though our Facebook page with our new identity and logo. 

https://www.facebook.com/Therealclubhouse-164681946904571/ 

I just finished updating our links to reflect our new web address on all posts dating back to the first FB post. Whew! There were a lot of posts! Some still contain an embedded reference to our former site, and blogs which are no longer active... which is okay. We will always have a little Irregular inside all of us, in some fashion or another.


Facebook is a very easy way to connect with your personal Facebook friends to let them know you participate in our webpage, and to welcome and encourage them to join in the fun! It is also a good way to get in touch with friends who used to visit our site, but have left, or forgotten about the fun and support that we offer on a daily basis.

When you see a post related to our site, please click the "Like" button. Also, please click "Share" to put the post on your Facebook timeline for your friends to see.

It is wonderful to see so many of you joining in the daily fun again. It would be equally nice if you can recommend us to some of your long time friends who would also enjoy our unique style of humor and good friendship.

I want to personally THANK those who have been brave and have authored their own blogs here. It isn't hard, just takes some fiddling around the first few times to get it. If you make a mistake, I can fix it, or can delete it. You can also click the "pencil" tool to re-edit once you've published. Not to worry! It brings such a smile to my face to see something new and unexpected on the page.

Here's to the next 8 years! Gather your friends and share the fun!

Community

Good morning, friends.... can we talk?


We've been through a transition. A surprise transition. A sad transition. More than just a name change or web URL.  With this change came growth, and strength. We have a choice. We have a voice.

I'm asking you to consider picking one of your friends. A close friend, an internet user friend. Someone who might be open to finding new friends. Send them a personal invitation to come see our new site. Ask them to leave a comment. Let them know that we are willing to accept them. New people bring new ideas and new life.

I have been amazed when looking at our data. (you know that has always been my job)  We have been off the charts. We have already had 1,500 pageviews to the new site. We are stable, despite the shakeup. It is all because of you, and the common friendships we've built over the last 8 years. I am also so thrilled to have some people return, who had been less visible in the recent past.

And now for new and exciting business:  Let me personally introduce you to my friend, Greg. We've farmed together and chatted via Facebook for years. We've never met in person, but he is like a brother to me, true blue and a great guy. Say hi to him... he is funny and smart and I'm sure if he chooses to stay, you will like him as much as I do. Thanks, Greg, for being brave enough to jump in the pool!

Now it is your turn... we are willing and waiting.
