history-ph update: Starting 2015 strong

The Young Filipino Historian, now under the URL http://history-ph.blogspot.com/, had been revived after almost 17 months of inactivity and has now reached another milestone.

From December 2012 until September 2014, there were only 1,088 page views for this site. As for the final quarter of 2014, the blog had received almost 3,300 page views. This January, the blog had received more than 1,250 page views (78% of the total November views).

Last December 15, the blog commemorated its second anniversary with the hashtag #TYFH2ndyear. The author is looking forward to a better year in 2015 for this emerging history blog.

Also, the official Facebook page of this history blog (you can like the page by clicking the like button at the sidebar) was launched last October 29. By January 27, the page had reached 150 likes. Log in to your Facebook now and like the page!

In September 2014, the death centennial of Reverend Nicolas Zamora was commemorated. On December 29, 2014, the Wikipedia article about him was featured in the main page of English Wikipedia. This inspired me to create a series on the church Zamora had served with all his heart and might until his death.

While I was before lambasted for considering website statistics as history, is statistics in itself not part of history? Also, is this not a blog that also has its own history? History, as the second oldest profession in the world, encompasses all that has happened in the past. Well, we did take note the time that Gangnam Style broke through 1 billion and 2 billion views, respectively, right? Let us make our minds open. Again, I thank you for understanding the purpose of documenting these website statistics.

I, the author, am very humbled for this warm welcome given to the restoration of this emerging history blog - The Young Filipino Historian. Also, I fervently believe that this is only the beginning the many more achievements to come for your rising history blog. Small success may this be to many, but take to mind that you are always to be entrusted with small things first.

Finally, may God provide you with many more blessings!
