Inception, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and Google Analytics

by Sachi on August 2, 2010

So, Joseph Gordon-Levitt has totally helped my blog get hits.

Allow me to explain.

Like many other bloggers, I use Google Analytics to track visitor activity on this here blog. Don’t worry, shy stalker folks, it doesn’t tell me who you are — just how you got to my site (directly or from a referring site), which pages you looked at, how long you looked at those pages, etc. It helps me find out what the people who come to my site actually do with it.*

Since the release of Inception there’s been a surge of interest in JGL, prompting searches for his tumblr, which I mentioned in a post dedicated to the man himself last September, a post that (much to my surprise and glee) now shows up any time someone googles “joseph gordon levitt tumblr.” Why anyone ventures below the actual link to his tumblr to click on my article is beyond me, but hey, I’ll take it. Go, Internets.

If you happen to be someone who reached my site on your hunt for JGL,  hello and welcome. Feel free to take a look around. Maybe you’ll find we have things in common besides our love for Joe and Inception, and our incredibly good looks. ;)

Speaking of Inception, have you seen it yet? I hope so. I recommend it to everyone because I love it, love it, want some more of it. I realize it’s now in that dangerous time of being potentially overhyped after its explosive release, but still… see it.

And then maybe see it again.

*Semi-interesting fact: the most-clicked categories on this blog are personal, marriage, and sex. Ha, people are nosy little buggers, aren’t they? These categories also happen to be kind of sparse. I can fix that.
