quarter of a million blog hits

Our blog has reached a milestone – over a quarter of a million hits!

Thanks to everyone who has viewed, contributed, commented, shared on Facebook or retweeted on Twitter. Interest in the blog continues to grow, from 55,000 hits in the first year, 177,000 by the second year anniversary, and now 250,000+ at the 2.5 year marker. These figures have exceeded our expectations and reflect an increasing awareness of the raptor persecution issue.

There’s still a long way to go before we match David Beckham’s facebook ‘likes’, reported at 20 million yesterday, but hey, we’ve done alright for a handful of individuals who wanted to share our perspective on something that others would prefer was still a well-kept secret.

All that is neccessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing“. Let’s keep doing something.

  1. I wish I could say congratulations, but it’s not exactly a cheery thing, is it? so, I’ll say thanks for your tireless (and sometimes hilarious) words and work in defense of raptors.

  2. I would say it is cheery Amatz!…the fact that so many people are being made aware of the reality of a situation which has only continued because of the public and our parliamentary representatives being kept in the dark or actively fed lies and smokescreens…has to be seen as a success story.

    Good on you raptorpersecutionscotland…lets go for a million…then perhaps we’ll get some real action from our justice system. Public Inquiry anyone?

  3. Those that continue to have a sickening disregard for wildlife, in this case for raptors, should be made aware that their cowardly, cruel and illegal activities are on the radar of many people now and it is only a matter of time that their activities will be detected, uncovered and exposed. Well done RPS for uncovering and informing.
