We started this blog in July 2011 based on the numerous conversations that Byambajav<\/a> Dalaibuyan, Mendee Jargalsaikhan and I were having about Mongolia around the office at the Institute of Asian Research<\/a> at UBC. It has been a great way to put some of those conversations down in pixels and to share them with readers.<\/p>\n

And readers we’ve had… Over 1,200 unique visitors to the site have added up to over 5,000 page views. In the average over 3 min that people visit the blog, they read 2.3 pages on average. Not surprisingly, visitors from Canada and Mongolia are our most frequent readers. About a third of traffic comes from referrals which seems relatively high compared to other sites, while keywords seem to generate relatively less traffic.<\/p>\n
