I hit a major milestone this past year: my 1,000th post. I looked over my labels to see what I had posted about the most. First I realized I have a lot of labels, probably because I'm an indexer, and I like a good amount of detail in my indices. Also, many of my posts have multiple labels. That said, I was not too surprised to see that the highest number for a label is 296 (almost 30% of my total posts) for Wordless Wednesday, a meme where I don't have to write.
Trailing well behind that with only half the total (150) is Sellers. The next few significant numbers are for cousins (108), children (104), newspaper research (99), and Meckler (89). So even though I cover a wide range of topics on my blog, most of the big numbers relate to my own family. I like that. And it makes sense that newspaper research is high on the list; after all, I am the genealogy newspaper queen of the Bay Area!
Along with Wordless Wednesday, two other memes I regularly write under are Treasure Chest Thursday and Saturday Night Genealogy Fun. And I still have a long list of other topics I want to write about. It looks like I'll be able to keep going with my blog for a few more years.

Well, you certainly beat me in the number of posts! I wish I had the photos you do in order to do Wordless Wednesday. I find it hard to post of photo without saying something about it. It feels like an orphan with no caption.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, it isn't a competition! I think Wordless Wednesday is part of the reason I have so many labels. I use the labels to compensate for not giving the photos captions.
DeleteCongratulations on your sixth blogiversary. It's a lot of fun, isn't it?? There never seems to be a lack of topic ideas.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I've been surprised at how many topics I can think of. I always have a backlog.
DeleteHappy blogiversary and many more! Plus many more breakthroughs and "wordless Wednesdays."
ReplyDeleteThank you, Marian! Hooray for Wordless Wednesdays!
