    At first I wasn't getting the hits I was expecting. So I bumped the article ggiD.com and got it ggud to the front page. Getting about 50 hits / 10 seconds just as a 3rd link "Digg > NYTimes > My site.

    I'd like to see some graphs with:
    - Number of hits per day per referrer (Digg/NY times/CNN online if applicable/Other)
    - AdSense earnings per day

    I'm wondering if the traffic from each of these websites "converts" to clicks equally or not.

    Zing. Thanks. But to simply answer your question without getting into stats, if you get a story aired on TV, be prepared. I got 250,000 hits in 24 hours.

    No problem :)

    But do you mean hits (worthless metric) or unique visitors?? Which I think you are referring to.....

    the hits would not be impressive.... the uniques would though!!!

    Either way the exposure is fantastic I am sure....

    Very Impressive. If you could get featured once per week you would be richer than Bill Gates.

    local TV station picked up the story. CNN Re-aired that tape. Caught me off guard. My server was crushed.

    Congratulations. I am happy for you man. Nice website with a great idea. I wish you well - may prosperity shine on you.

    By the way, is the LightPoint datacenter local? Also, how much did that server cost? Thanks!
