10,000+ Visits, Five Countries, and One Free Ad: Let’s See What Happens
The other day, I shared some exciting news: NielFlamm.com has passed 10,000 page views, visits, and unique visitors. Thank you to everyone who has stopped by, watched a video, read a post, or followed along on this journey. I’m glad you’re here!
I’ve also mentioned that I’m offering 30 days of free advertising on the site. And maybe you’re thinking: “I don’t have anything to sell to Niel’s audience. Why would I advertise?”
Fair question. But advertising doesn’t have to be only about selling a product. Maybe you want people to discover your business, service, creative work, event, organization, or cause. Maybe you’re trying to reach a new audience, build recognition, or see whether your message connects with people in places you haven’t advertised before.
Here’s another reason to consider it: NielFlamm.com has an international audience. The top five viewer locations, in order, are:
United States
Singapore
Hong Kong
Germany
China
That means a business or organization in one of these places could use an ad to introduce itself to visitors elsewhere. A U.S. business might want to reach people in Singapore or Germany. A creator in Hong Kong might want more people in the United States to find their work. Or perhaps you simply want your name, project, or message to travel farther than it does today.
And there’s more: the site uses Linguise to translate content. In the last 30 days, it has handled more than 1 million words, over 10 million characters, and more than seven individual requests. The most commonly translated languages were Arabic, Dutch, Portuguese, Chinese, and German.
So your ad could be part of a site that welcomes visitors from around the world and offers content in multiple languages. It might be a print-style ad, a video, or another format that suits your message. We can talk about what you’re hoping to promote and come up with something that fits.
The offer is simple: advertise for 30 days for free. Try it, see whether people notice, and find out whether it impacts your bottom line. Since there’s no charge for the first 30 days, you can test the idea without paying for the experiment.
You have nothing to lose by starting a conversation. Let’s talk about what you’d like to promote and come up with a 30-day campaign together. Reach out through the Contact page at NielFlamm.com—and let’s see where the journey takes your message.

From 1,000 to 2,500 Visitors in 18 Days—Thank You!
Eighteen days ago, I published “Thank You for Reading My Stupidity,” after traffic had dropped by almost 50% and then finally returned to its previous level.
At that time, the previous 30-day figures showed approximately:
1,000 visits
1,000 unique visitors
1,300 page views
The newest 30-day report shows:
2,500 visits—an increase of approximately 150% since the last post
2,500 unique visitors—also up approximately 150%
2,700 page views—an increase of approximately 108%
These comparisons are based on rounded figures, but the direction is unmistakable: considerably more people are finding and viewing the site.
I want to thank everyone who has visited, read a post, shared a link, or simply stopped by to see what kind of stupidity I’ve posted lately. I’m genuinely grateful for every visit.
The China Is Still Leading the Way
In the previous post, I thanked the 710 visitors from The China. The latest report shows 2,025 visits from The China—an increase of approximately 185% in just 18 days.
The United States increased from 249 to 312 visits, or approximately 25%. Brazil rose from 24 to 27 visits, and the latest report also includes visitors from Vietnam, India, and other places worldwide.
The bounce rate is currently 97.31%, so many visitors appear to stop by, look at one page, and continue on with their day. Whether you read one page or ten, I appreciate you spending some of your time here.
Limited Advertising Opportunities
With the audience continuing to grow, I’m offering a limited number of advertising slots on the site.
This is an opportunity for businesses, creators, and organizations to reach a growing international audience without being buried among dozens of competing advertisements. Availability will remain intentionally limited so the site stays uncluttered and participating advertisers receive meaningful visibility.
If you’re interested in advertising on the site, please get in touch before the available spaces are filled.
Thank you again to everyone visiting—from The China to the United States and everywhere in between. Seeing visits rise by roughly 150% in only 18 days is unexpected, humbling, and greatly appreciated.
Thank you for continuing to read my stupidity.
A Thank You to My Readers—and a Free Advertising Opportunity
To everyone visiting NielFlamm.com: thank you for reading, sharing, and enjoying my content! A special thank you to my readers in China, where most of the site’s visits come from.
As a short-term experiment, I’m offering free advertising on NielFlamm.com to business owners everywhere. That’s $0—no cost. A limited number of advertising opportunities are available, and I’m curious to see what impact these ads can have.
Maybe you’d like to reach customers in China, introduce your goods or services to the United States market, or connect with people elsewhere. Wherever your business is based, you’re welcome to participate.
