Yesterday, Reflections of a Rational Republican passed its first important milestone: 1,000 page views since launching on January 1, 2011!

However, this number pales in comparison to top blogging sites like TechCrunch and The Huffington Post. TechCrunch currently gets 9.2 million unique visitors and 30 million page views per month. The Huffington Post currently has 15.5 million page views per month according to Quantcast.

That said, everyone has to start somewhere and the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Shameless self-promotional moment over. This blog now returns to its regularly scheduled programming.
