Welcome to the "new" and "improved Bluffton Icon!

Posted by Fred Steiner on May 9, 2010 - 5:16pm

That's right! New and improved. You see, we are experience growing pains: lots and lots of people are sending us stories and story ideas; lots of businesses are advertising and more are in the pipeline; lots of people are joining us each new day as a first-time viewer. Lots of them.

We now average 350 "unique" viewers on our lowest view day of the week - Sunday! That's our low count. Over the past 30 days we experienced over 4,000 unique viewers!
