Just a quick post to say thanks for the continued support of all those that have visited this blog over the last year and a bit. As I write I expect the hit counter to click over the 400,000 mark which is almost double my original 18 month target. The various reactions that my posts have received have shown me a lot about how people perceive the Police and their role in modern society. The vast majority have been supportive, or at least understanding. Some have been less so and there are a few out there that simply want to pick a fight. To that end, it would appear that there is a good cross-section of the general public having a browse through my posts as well as the natural target audience of Police officers and other emergency services staff.
I have recently managed to attract my 3000th follower on Twitter and have had my material shared widely over social networks and in print. I have had the opportunity to foster some good relationships with a number of senior officers and the various Federations throughout the country.
My hope is that I can push for the half million mark by the time the blog reaches its second anniversary. In the hope of achieving this goal I ask for your feedback and suggestions for how I can increase my readership and any new features or developments that you, as readers, feel would make the blog more appealing.
Thanks again – without readers a blog is nothing than more than a black hole cyberspace. I look forward to the future and hope you will all continue to keep me company on the journey.
