. . . who gives me a link to the place where WordPress is promoting my blog. I see on my Statistics page that it’s been sending crowds of people to my blog since yesterday. I also got comments from spammers telling me WordPress has been promoting me.
So if you chance upon the place where I’m being promoted by WordPress or if you came here through that mysterious promotional mechanism, please let me know. I’m dying of curiosity here.

Do I get to take home a copy of the board game as a consolation if I say that it’s just because you’re pretty cool?

Oh, thank you, Helena! I wanted to know, though, how WordPress discovered my pretty coolness. 🙂

Plenty of your visitors are likely from my blog, I would bet. People seemed interested to investigate the liar I was busy exposing.
You’re welcome.

No, there is almost nobody from your blog. Fifty people or so. I’m talking about REAL promotion, not some puny handful of weirdos.

You might have been on the frontpage of wordpress.com.
Can’t you take a look at the most common Referers?

That’s likely if a single post is getting most of the hits. The referers section of your stats page will likely solve the mystery.

No, it’s the blog’s homepage that they are all coming to, not a specific post.

Yes, and the bigger referrer these two days is the homepage of WordPress.

Right, same here. I was surprised because I don’t have a readership yet, and suddenly I see fifty people over from WordPress.com. Quite a surprise.
Blog about it if you figure it out 🙂

I knew they were doing something differently. But what can it be? I’ve searched, but found nothing.
