I recently discovered that today is the sixth annual love our lurkers day. There’s an official logo and everything.
I’m not a huge fan of the expression ‘lurker’. It suggests someone with a slightly nefarious purpose. However, I do appreciate the sentiment behind the love our lurkers day. It’s a cheezy thing to say but without you wonderful people this blog wouldn’t exist. Everyday I get a few comments, often from other people with blogs of their own. But everyday I also get thousands of visitors coming by to take a look at whatever random rubbish happened to make it from my brain into a post. And I guess to check out some new hot femdom images. That also probably plays a small role in my stats count.
I write this blog for a whole host of different reasons, but the main one is to share stuff I like. I wouldn’t keep doing it without that. So here’s to all the readers and lurkers out there who come here to share it with me. Thanks for dropping by.
If you ever thought about leaving a comment, this would be a great time to do it! Maybe just a mention of where you’re from, or what you’re into, or even what you’d like to see more/less of here. I’d love to hear from you. The comment system asks for a name/email/website, but you only need the first two. Also the email isn’t published and doesn’t even have to be a genuine email address.
In the meantime here’s a lovely young lady sharing a little happiness with you all. And as a special extra, just to celebrate the lurkers, here’s a bonus image for the male submissives and a bonus image for the female dommes.
I found the above image on the Femdom Style Counsel tumblr site. The special bonus linked images came from the art or porn site and from the Dishevelled Domina tumblr site. I’ll leave figuring out which came from where as an exercise to the reader.
Hi paltego,
I’m one of those lurkers but I’ll raise my hand here to say thanks for the pictures (they may have *something* to do with the visitor numbers as you say).
One more thing. It’d be great if your pictures and whatnot worked from an RSS reader… I think you’re using relative URLs which means any links from your posts to other posts on your site don’t work from within a reader.

Hey mp,
Thanks for dropping by. Glad you enjoy the pictures.
I’ll take a look at the reader issue. I’m not using relative URLs (I just looked at the html of the frontpage, and they’re all absolute) so something else must be going on. Possibly it’s the image hotlink protection which is designed to stop other sites directly linking to my images and stealing my bandwidth. I’ll have a hunt around and see if I can reproduce the issue for myself.

paltego,
LOL day seems to have a LOL (lack of luster). With thousands of visitors each day, it’s no longer surprising that less than a handful comment.
Your work here is appreciated. Keep up the good work…as long as you enjoy it 🙂

Hi Suzanne,
Yes, I seem to have particularly shy lurkers :(. Although I have to admit I never left a blog comment anywhere until I had my own blog, so I shouldn’t be surprised.
Thanks for the comment. Glad you enjoy my posts. And I hope your recovery continues to go smoothly. I’ve been reading your updates and have been happy to see you on the path back to full health. Have a fun weekend with tammy when she returns!
