What you see on this page are screen shots of my statistics that show people’s searches from google and on which guest post they landed. If you are using a mobile phone you might have to turn your phone landscape to see them.
These stats illustrate how important your stories are and that they help others when they are hurting or looking for answers. The one above is someone searching for God after a child died. Where was God when my child died?
Someone came from Google and landed on Jill Cichowicz’ story about her twin brother, Scott Neal Zeobrowski, who died by overdose.
Someone on Google looked up something related to losing a girlfriend who died by suicide and landed on article written by Aidan O’Connell.
Someone in Lebanon, New Hampshire looked up something related to bipolar disorder and landed on Paul Buskey’s article, then found Tammy Ozolins article on keeping a job with bipolar disorder and then to another of Paul’s article about bipolar disorder.
Someone came from google search and landed on Gray’s post about her son, Whitten.
Someone in Greenboro, Georgia looked up Jenny Derr and found this article about collateral damage after a family loses a loved one by overdose.
Someone on Google must have also been experiencing abuse from the criminal justice system regarding a son or daughter who was autistic. This one by Judy Harrison.
Someone from Google searched for hope and found Honesty Liller’s post about going into recovery.
Someone from Google was looking up having lost a friend to suicide and ultimately landed on Emily’s Barnhardt’s post.
I often see Googlers looking up “suicide out of the blue” and landing on Charlotte Moyler’s story about her daughter Maggie.
I am seeing this frequently. I assume someone looking up how to stay alive when they are suffering intense thoughts of suicide. And they find hope when they land on Anna’s letter to herself.
While this site does really well on social media, mostly facebook, at least 40% of my traffic comes from Google to the articles on this site. These are just the ones I happen to capture when I was checking the stats. And it’s not all I have stashed in my folder.
Your stories are important. They are saving lives, providing hope, comfort, and making others feel less isolated and alone. Notes like the one below, never get old and are the result if your sharing your hearts at emotionally naked, honoring your story and your loved ones. Submit your story.
Just think about how many people would not have been reached if you had not decided to share your life and loss. Wow. It’s so exciting to think how many more will be helped in the future as the emotionally naked community grows… ❤️
I would read that every day if it came to me Anne Moss. You ARE saving lives and you make SUCH a difference. Thank you for posting our stories and letting us write. It’s good for us and others too.
Keep it up. Love you.
And what this post says is that I’m not doing it alone. And thank you for opening your heart, Gray. Whitten, and you, are making a difference.
