So I've recently noticed that you can see who views your blog and what type of searches result in people stumbling across your blog...and from what sketchy websites people are using get to your blog. This kinda freaked me out and some of the searches that lead people to this little family-friendly blog were unnerving.
For example, the most read post was "Kissy Marks" which was an innocent Valentines Day post with pictures of us giving Jackson kisses on his cheeks with lipstick. However, this apparently is an internet keywork that is quite popular because it has lead way to way too many random views of my blog. While the majority of my views come from the US, I have hundreds of readers in Russia, Asia and other countries in which I do not have friends or family.
This being said, I've decided to make my blog private starting next week. I do not want to exclude family & friends who keep up with me & my family through our blog, so I am asking that anyone who wants to be included on the list of viewers to please send me an email or leave a comment so I can add you to the list. This will hopefully weed out the random/sketchy readers who kinda give me the creeps.
FYI, if you want to see who is viewing your blog and you are on Blogger, go to settings>stats and you can look at the traffic by key word search, referring website, geographical location, etc. Its very interesting and a little unsettling.
