On a year-over-year basis, the October 2021 blog traffic gain over the same time in 2020 was the smallest since January at just 11%. Nevertheless, it’s a 10th month in a row where this year outpaced last year. Since 2020 was the prior high, it’s another record readership for the month of October. It’s also the 3rd month in a row with 30k+ page views. No year before this year has ever had more than one month of 30k.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, the site continues to extend the yearly readership record, which it broke last month<\/a>. We should hit the 300,000 page view count for the year some time in the first half of November. Could even been in the first week. That’ll be a nice milestone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are October’s most-read posts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  2. Volleyball Set Diagram<\/a><\/li>
  3. Volleyball arm swing \u2013 understanding and coaching it<\/a><\/li>
  4. Putting together a starting line-up<\/a><\/li>
  5. Favorite drills\/games to practice serve receive<\/a><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Most were on last month’s list. Interesting to see the arm swing post got on the list, though. Readership there came more from social media, whereas the others were driven more by search.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
