Blog Stats for Youth Ministry Ideas
Above is a picture shot of my Blog Stats since April of this year. I do realize for those that come to Youth Ministry Ideas – you probably could care less as you’re here to gather ideas and resources for your youth ministry that you are leading. However, for those that blog, it’s always interesting to share some stats because most bloggers check stats very often.
Here’s my brief breakdown:
Total Visits for October estimated: 9,000
Highest Referrers:
- YouthPastor.com – this is because my posts show on their every time.
- Google.com – my words that I use show up really well as I’m usually within the top 5 for keyword, “Youth Ministry Ideas”.
- TimSchmoyer.com and Rethinkingyouth.blogspot.com
Search Engine Terms:
- Youth Ministry Ideas
- Youth Ministry Lessons
- Youth Group Ideas
- Youth Group Games
Many other specific phrases that seem to pull up my sight as well.
Highest Visits in a Single Day: 503
Links Coming In: 10

Spam Comments: 1,269 (most bloggers get a lot of this)
Besides these I discovered that on Google I’m on page 3 for the keyword, “Youth Ministry” which is estimated to be searched about 50k times a month using Google, MSN, and Yahoo combined.
As per goals stated HERE, I want to up the quality and diversity of this blog which means things will continually change and be updated. I really like the vision of having a youth worker or two in each state reporting back what youth ministry ideas are taking place currently in their state.
I do know this may mean getting this site hosted where I have complete control of it which means you may eventually see some advertising to off set cost of doing that because I want this to be a place for free ideas.
If you would like to become a contributor from a specific state please email me – I’m still working on getting together an application that should be ready by next week.

Nice traffic!
Looks like you went through a lot of trouble to get a picture of your stats up there. Next time try the Print Screen button on your keyboard. It takes a screenshot of your screen and copies it onto the clipbard. Just paste inside Photoshop, Paint some imaging software. If you use a Mac, just hit Command+Shift+3 and it’ll save your screenshot on your desktop as a png file.
Also, I wonder why youthpastor.com won’t syndicate my feed there. I’ve contacted them about it before. Hmm…
Thanks for the tip Tim as I’ve redone the pic. I knew there was some way to do that because it wasn’t working to right click and save as…
Maybe youthpastor.com just likes me more – kidding:)
I love this site. I’m very new in the world of youth ministry, and I visit every week from Ontario, Canada. I’d love to help out in some way.
Thanks Mikey! I’ll get you an application this week.
