Bookhi's 1st Blogoversary - This is just the beginning....


Yesterday was Bookhi's 1st Blogoversary! It doesn't feel like the blog has been going for that long, but I guess the "time flies when you're having fun" saying is right! :)

Before I started, I didn't exactly know what a proper 'book blogger' was. When I first set it up, I didn't even know I would get sent books to review! After seeing other book blogs and thinking that it looked fun to do, I had no idea that it would be like this (in a good way!).

I wouldn't have had most of the books on my shelf if it weren't for blogging, and it takes a lot of my free time but I love it.

I'm not going to do a 10000 word post blabbing on about how blogging is awesome (because believe me, I could do that) so I am going to put a few random facts about Bookhi over the past year:

Ahem.

Random Facts:
  • Bookhi was previously named 'Zoe's Books' but then I decided to change it to something more original.
  • It has had 23,426 pageviews in all time history. Impressive! But I think that counts as the same person multiple times :P
  • Most people have found my blog through Google.
  • My post popular post is 'Harry Potter' which has had 840 pageviews! (personally I think that post is rubbish...)
  • Most people who view my blog is in the UK.
  • 171 people have typed into my search bar 'happy cat' *confused face*
Thank you for reading! I just want to say a BIG thank you to all of my 62 followers! And thank you to those ones especially who actually read the stuff I put and take time to comment! *cyber hugs*


To wrap up the post, I have put together a word cloud about Bookhi! Enjoy! Zoe xx
