Top 10 most popular articles on zuzeeko.com in 2012

Like I said in my new year message, 2012 was a great year. I had a son, made great career strides among other things. One of the things I enjoyed doing last year was blog. According to my archive, I made a total of 66 blog entries in 2012 - down from 119 in 2011 and 151 in 2010. Despite the drop in the number of blog entries, the number of unique visitors and pageviews went up significantly in 2012 compared to previous years. Many websites and blogs publish their most read articles at the end or beginning of each year so I decided to do the same this time.

Besides revealing my most popular articles, I also decided to include the most searched keywords that landed visitors on my blog, the most creepy keyword and top 11 countries where readers came from between 1 January 2012 and 31 December 2012.

Here is a look at the top 10 most read blog posts on zuzeeko.com in 2012, according to statistics gathered by Google Analytics.
