Eastman's Online Genealogy Newsletter Most Popular

As you've heard before from me, Dick Eastman is going to be our featured speaker at the Pinellas Genealogy Society Annual Seminar on 13 February 2010. Every time I have mentioned that, I have also commented on the popularity and reach of his online newsletter.

Well, now it is official--Dick's newsletter is the most popular online genalogy magazine as determined by Alexa. Alexa is the world’s leading company for measuring Internet traffic. The company monitors the web traffic of millions of Internet sources, including thousands of genealogy sites. Web traffic is objectively categorized based on the actual number of visitors to each web site. From these Internet traffic statistics, Alexa maintains a list of the most popular online genealogy magazines.

We are happy to see Dick get this recognition (although we suspected it all along), and it makes us even more excited about his participation with us at the seminar.

If you are interested in attending the seminar or seeing more information about it, visit our website at http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~flpgs/index.htm.
