Kate (kathrynlouwca) One thing that has always fascinated me is random statistics and data. So the other day, I was pocking around on the admin side for the Readathon Blog when I discovered that you could view the total number of lifetime visits the blog has had by country.

So here is your mini-challenge... Name the top 10 countries to visit the blog in order of visits per a country. The person with the most correct countries wins. In the event that there is a tie, the person who got the most in the correct order will win. This will run until the end of the readathon, at which point I will update this post with the correct order. Thank you!

Eswee42 | 31 comments Let's give this a try, only because I want to see some of those stats!

USA
Canada
UK
The Netherlands
Spain
Germany
Norway

The top three is easy, but after that it gets hard! I've seen Sweden, Latvia, Australia, Puerto Rico, South Africa, Portugal, Phillipines, Indonesia, Pakistan, Croatia, Russia, Mexico and there's probably loads more!

Kate (kathrynlouwca) lol - well 4 out of you all tied and its so close I won't pick favorites. Lots of good guesses. Here is the actual list:

1 - United States of America
2 - United Kingdom
3 - Canada
4 - Denmark
5 - Germany
6 - Australia
7 - Netherlands
8 - India
9 - Finland
10 - Sweden

So it looks like that majority of you neglected the Scandinavian countries!


message 8: by Ilse (new)

Ilse | 46 comments Oh wow, I indeed didn’t even think about the Scandinavian countries haha.


message 9: by Aušrinė (new)

Aušrinė (ausrejurke) How did I not think of Denmark? 😆 I did at least two read-a-thons from Denmark myself and their "hygge" is so suitable for the occasion!
