Overall there have been 556 individual posts and just over 500,000 page-views – at an average of about 900 views per post.
CMC has been ranked in the 20 top UK blogs in the Religion and Belief category in the e-buzzing rankings for all but one of the last 18 months. It peaked at 3rd in March 2012 and currently stands at 13th. It ranks 397th overall amongst e-buzzing’s over 210,000 registered blogs.
CMC is a specialist blog majoring on issues at the interface of Christianity and Medicine with specific focus on the beginning and end of life. But my broader aim is to bring issues to the attention of Christians that I believe they should be informed and concerned about.
I write mainly for a Christian readership but many of my readers hold strongly opposing views and frequently take issue with what I say.
50% of readers come from the UK, 22% from the US and 9% from Canada, Australia, Germany, Russia, France and Ireland combined with the remaining 19% coming from other countries around the world.
CMC was runner up in the People’s Choice category at the Christian New Media Awards in London this year. Last year it was a finalist in the Best Christian Blog category and in 2010 it was listed in Jubilee Centre's seven best blogs giving a Christian perspective on social and political issues.
I’m particularly grateful to those other blogs which republish some of my posts giving them wider distribution (especially Euthanasia Prevention Coalition, Mercatornet, Anglican Mainstream, Care Not Killing, LifeSite News, National Right to Life News and the Official CMF blog) and also to the Christian Institute, Westminster2010 and Christian Concern which frequently link to or quote from them.

Thank you Peter Saunders for your excellent blog. It is a beacon of light
ReplyDeleteIt's actually quite often a beacon of idiocy.
DeletePeter, you are running a most excellent education service. Congratulations on the half-million page views, some of which are mine.
ReplyDelete... and some of which are from people, like me, who are staggered by the stupidity of supposedly educated adults who can't seem to think for themselves.
DeleteMatthew 5:14-15
ReplyDeleteYe are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
Proverbs 13: 16 Every prudent man dealeth with knowledge: but a fool layeth open his folly.
it is really nice study
ReplyDeleteI’m inspired with the surpassing and preachy listing that you furnish in such little timing.
