Check out the TTD stats.

Notice we were hovering between 2,000 and 3,000 hits a day before the NY Times article. I realize there are some rock star photographers who these numbers don't match, but it's pretty cool to watch the buzz build. We had over 31,000 hits yesterday.

Oh, and the downward trend at the end is only because we haven't gotten all the way through today yet.

Not surprising at all Mark. I'm sure that big BIG things are coming your way out of this dude.

I'm hoping BIG things come out for everyone. Thank you Chris.

THAT'S INSANE MAN! How awesome!!!

Very cool Mark

Thanks man- just following you and your principles- Give, Give, Give- and one day- it will come back to you. I hope it comes back for all of us.

woohoo! That's the shape my hits graph is taking too for my website from being linked on the side....of course it's not even in the thousands but still. lol

flipping through my own stats today, I have hit 7x the unique hits for yesterday and today than a normal weekday. Crazy!

Great! That photographer of the week tag does some good afterall. We're taking bids for the photgrapher of the week this week, lol.

I've finally posted something on my blog regarding this phenomenon, I'd been putting it off too long. I know Jason Domingues and Peter with Kairos do it in my area, but I don't know of anyone else doing it, so hopefully we can help fill a void here.

Umm...Hmmm...I have like 100 Mexican Pesos, or $5 Canadian. It's a pretty, blue bill. It's very nice. lol.

Mark... and just think... you almost killed the site!!! I bet you're happy you soldiered on...

Awesome work!

That's awsome! It does great things for all of us! Even though I haven't done any ttd work yet, I've been talking about it to all my brides for this summer. This kind of exposure of great images and people thinking outside the box can only do great things for the industry.

Thank you. That is exactly how I feel. I want to ultimately promote creative artistic fun photography. TTD is just a pedestal to get the message out. Photographers don't have to box themselves in to a certain label. And brides don't have to settle for less than the best.

Shane, I am reminded of that often- crazy, huh.

Yeah!!!!

Amen to that, brother. Amen.

And I have to agree that the traffic is staggering. My hits have jumped significantly since the article and that's through my link on letsgettrashed.com which is linked on TTD.com

Amazing.

Thank you, Mark! Man...I can't wait to trash these prom dresses saturday.

Mark,

That's fantastic bro!!! The "photographer of the week" can do wonders for someone's web traffic as well. For example, here are my hits on my new blog for the last 8 months or so...

That jump in March was largely due to Boutwell Studio linking me on their site as a photographer to watch of sorts-Chenin was REALLY too nice about that! And apparently the stalkers have stuck around The concept is a great idea-I'll throw my hat into the ring!!

This is marketing brilliance. Good job everyone.

Congrats Mark!!!

How I've missed this, I dunno, but I'm so excited for you. Sent an email to keep the other thousand or so that you must have in your inbox now company.
