Another Video Blog Milestone: Songwriter Jeff Copperthite at 20,000 views!

By Jeff Copperthite:

Another milestone! And in only 52 days! I have reached 20K views on Youtube!

I am pleased to have reached this milestone, as it brings me another 10K views to my goal of 40K by the end of the summer. I want to thank all of you loyal guitarbucketlist.com visitors. This motivates me further to continue to provide the best acoustic cover song videos that I can!

My viewcount increased 10K in 52 days. That makes my views per day stat 192.31. The past week or two (thanks mostly to my Jakob Dylan video) I have been averaging 250 views per day. And this statistic can only go up from here!

We continue to please and you can expect more songs from new bands, previously covered bands, and more top notch original music videos from Jim, Chris, and myself. Again, thank you for helping me reach this wonderful milestone. Here’s to the next 10K and beyond!

Video Blog Milestone: Songwriter Jim Fusco at 50,000 views in record time!

By Jim Fusco:

Yes, that’s right folks- I’m at 50,000 views and counting! It only took about 20 days to get there and it puts me on pace to match my goal of 55,000 by the end of the month. We have plenty of things in store for you in the coming weeks and I truly expect this number to skyrocket in the very near future.

Again, thanks for your support of my videos and ALL of the videos here at guitarbucketlist.com!

Video Blog Milestone: Songwriter Jeff Copperthite at 10,000 views!

By Jeff Copperthite:

It happened literally overnight. I went to sleep lastnight 50 views short of the magic number of 10,000….and this morning I have 10,010! Finally I join my colleagues Chris and Jim in the 5 digit view-count department.

Another milestone has been achieved at our site, and we continue to gain popularity by the day. Our goal, as mentioned a week or two ago by Jim, is to obtain a combined total of 500,000 views by the end of the year. I since told him that we should not only achieve it, but we should shatter that mark by the end of the year.

Think about it – one session per day will mean each of us will have posted at least 121 videos in the year 2008. Many of those will have been up for a good portion of the year. We are constantly making ourselves known in search engines, message boards, and people we know. We are seeing signs of our efforts when we see how many views our blog gets per day, and our video views per day continue to increase steadily.

On March 31, I had 6,791 views, and on February 29th I had 3,932 views. I have averaged about 104 views per day in April, up from 92 views per day in March. And technically, today is far from over as well.

Thank you so much for making www.guitarbucketlist.com the place to see some great covers and great original music. The three of us hope you continue to make this site the place to visit every day!

Video Blog Milestone: Songwriter Jim Fusco at 40,000 and counting!

By Jim Fusco:

In my world, goals are made to be broken. I’m that “Type A” personality that needs to get things done and won’t stop until it’s done completely. That said, I made a goal for myself to get 100 subscribers and 35,000 YouTube views by my birthday next Tuesday, April 29.

I made that goal about two months ago, and today, I reached 40,000 views to go along with my 128 subscribers!

It’s a nice milestone, but I need to make a better goal for next time around, so here it is.

I would like 225 subscribers and 55,000 views by May 31st. It’s a lofty goal, seeing that as of now, I’m averaging about 10,000 views a month. I’m hoping May brings me 15,000. I think it’s possible, though.

Between the three of us, I don’t see any reason why we can’t shoot for 250,000 total views by the end of the year. We’re currently on pace to get 211,920 views by year end, but as we’ve seen in the past four months, this keeps growing by leaps and bounds. I can only think that we’ll easily eclipse that 250k number because the viewership seems to grow somewhat exponentially.

That said, goals are great if you intend to complete them, and that’s what Jim, Chris, and Jeff ALL plan to do here at the Laptop Sessions. Thank you for your support and we hope you’ll tell all your friends in person, on MySpace, and on Facebook to come watch some great videos here at https://guitarbucketlist.com!
