Quietly, when nobody was looking the counter that keeps track of the total page views at Vinton Today went from a number ending “9,999” to one ending with four zeros.

On Wednesday, Jan. 5, a little less than 10 months after we began Vinton Today, we marked our 750,00th page view. That means our stories have been read a total of 750,000 times.

According to one our counters, we have published a total of 2,337 stories – an average of eight or so a day. That of course includes the long stories as well as the one-paragraph or one-sentence news briefs about upcoming meetings.

But still, as one of our friends said, “That’s a lot.”

And it is.

But for us, it’s only a beginning. Thanks to all of you who in some way contributed to that number. And thanks to everyone one of our friends and sponsors for enabling us to keep Vinton Today going so we could reach it.

MH January 6, 2011, 2:48 pm Way to go, Vinton Today! Thanks for all you do to enhance our community. An aside - I really enjoy your ads. They are bright, colorful, eye-catching and just very well done. I find myself stopping to read and even click-through to businesses I\'ve not used and even those I already frequent. Nice work!
