Social Media Image Sizes: The Perennial Favorite
This one rocks over 75,00 Pinterest saves and 2,500,000 pageviews. Why?
Because I keep it updated and accurate!
I created it in response to all the misinformation found online. And readers ate it up!

This one’s proof positive that you can’t always know what will take off.

There’s nothing Google loves quite so much as current, in-depth content that people stick around to read to the last word.
I updated and lengthened this post in August and it really took off.

Reader Favorite #7: A little more Color Love
Here’s another one I find surprising.
Google send this loads of traffic for various “color quotes” search terms.
This is the only top post that Google loves – that’s not about Facebook or Instagram.
And as you may have noted, most of them are also very specific to image sizes.
But hey, I’m not complaining 🙂
This one’s got 408,238 lifetime pageviews and 5:13 average time on page.
Reader Favorites: Conclusion
Wondering how I racked up this torrent of traffic?
I started blogging in April 2011. The lifetime traffic I quoted includes April 2011 – October 31, 2018.
Note: “Current” traffic standings refer to the month of October 2018.
My blog started to take off in March 2012 when I was one of the first people to blog about Facebook Timeline coming to business Pages.
Suddenly Google recognized me as a visual expert for Facebook – and later Instagram.
My overall traffic is 80% organic search. This varies somewhat by post, but –
The favorite colors post is 86% social and only 0.18% organic search! Apparently Google doesn’t see what all the fuss is about on that post.
Just thought you might enjoy a glimpse into my traffic stats!
Hope you enjoyed reading these reader favorites on social media and more.
