As we approach the year’s end, and the inevitable reflection that it brings, I thought it would be fun to post a Top 10 list.
Of course, there are multiple ways to quantify such a list. I first looked at the posts published in 2022 that received the most views. I always find it interesting to see which post titles resonate the most with readers.
But I was also curious about the posts that received the most views since the blog’s inception. I totaled those too.
There is a little bit of overlap between the two groupings. But not much. So I ended up making two Top 10 lists.
The first list is just for posts published in 2022. The second list is for the most viewed posts of all time. In this case, “all time” means from January 2020 (the blog’s birth month) through today’s date. If you missed seeing any of those posts, here is your chance to click and read.
I thank each of you, each and every reader, for choosing to spend some of your time in 2022 with my backyard horses and me.

Interesting. My all time most read post is about the danger of riding horses.

The title is “100 Deaths per Year”. I wrote it when WordPress still did dailyword challenges.

That IS interesting that particular title would be your most viewed. I read somewhere that what often prompts folks to click on articles is related to the amount of emotion (positive or negative) that they feel when they read the title. Maybe that has something to do with it?
