What is CounselingSeattle.com?

[Message to advertisers as of August 2005]

Over the past five years, CounselingSeattle.com has grown from Floyd Else’s simple, large-font hobby site into a powerful, highly-ranked site that comes up first whenever you search for a counselor or therapist in cities throughout the Puget Sound area (Greater Seattle, King County, Pierce County, Snohomish County, Island County and Kitsap County.)

Over 1,610 websites around the world, link to CounselingSeattle.com. [2,970 as of 3/29/06].  The first to link to CounselingSeattle.com was from the University of Barcelona in Spain. This was followed by MEL—the University of Michigan Electronic Library—and then the University of Kent in Canterbury in the United Kingdom.

Depending on the time of year, CounselingSeattle.com has 22,000 to 25,500 unique visitors each month. 201 different key word phrases punched into search engines bring visitors directly into different pages of the CounselingSeattle.com site.  [If you haven't done so already, I invite you to go to the home page of CounselingSeattle.com and just spend some time clicking around to discover all the varied material that is available on this site.]

Not all the visitors are looking for counselors, but of those who are, many are directed by search engines into specific counselor pages (a few examples: 159 visitors enter directly to the Capitol Hill page by search engine, 229 into the Bellevue page, 110 to the Downtown Seattle page, 88 to the Wallingford area page, and 156 to the Tacoma page).

About 1215 unique visitors a month navigate using the counselor locator page.  312 visitors will search using counselor names, 553 will navigate by geographic locations, and 649 will navigate by Niche Specialties©. (The numbers above don’t total correctly because some visitors navigate using more than one route.)  To find statistics for specific cities and neighborhoods, you can  search Google for “Site Statistics for CounselingSeattle.com.”

CounselingSeattle.com links to many counselor websites from the counselors’ individual listings on CounselingSeattle.com.  (If we don’t already link to your website, please let us know and we will help you set it up.)

CounselingSeattle has over 200 pages (or URLs). There are 9,470 hyperlinks in the site. Of these 6,726 are internal links (within the site) and 2,474 are external links to other sites. A software program scans all the links each week and any broken links are repaired weekly. (We do not want visitors to be clicking on dead links.)

Each week CounselingSeattle.com ads new materials as it continues to grow and improve to better serve the public and the counselors who enrich its pages.

May we all grow and prosper in the coming year.
