Amazing. I have just checked my Google Analytics carefully on the countries where Pictures-of-cats.org (POC) is seen and it now numbers 199! At one time the site was seen in 86% of the world’s countries but the number is climbing.
199 countries would seem to be all the world’s countries. How many countries are in the world? It depends on the criteria it seems to me. But it is around 200. 195 seems to be the usual figure.
There are a few blank spots in Africa: Niger, Chad, Somaliland, Eritrea, Guinea and Central African Republic. I’ll need to write some more articles about those countries! Fill the blanks. The confusion about the number of countries in the world results in 199 not being all the world on some counts but more than all the world on a different way of counting!
You can see the Google Analytics report by clicking on this link: PoC seen in 199 countries – list of countries. I hope this link works for you.
As you can see in the screenshot below, the top country by far is the United States of America, which is why I focus on that country. I am a fan of the US. I love the space. Something that we lack in the UK.
Why is site seen so widely? My guess is that there are two main reasons:
- It is written in plain English which foreigners who can speak English can understand reasonably well and
- The site covers a very wide range of cat topics concerning all the world’s countries.
