Website News

2012 is almost upon us. Today we look back at 2011, while tomorrow we will forward into 2012. Last year, our readership numbers continued to grow. As of writing this on New Years Eve morning, we had 399,956 individual hits on the website. I expect that we will see over 400,000 by the time the day is done. I would like to thank every reader for making this site possible. Without you and your input, the site would not be possible.

You have probably noticed the lack of articles posted over the last few weeks. I have to apologize for that. However, I feel I have a pretty good excuse.

Two weeks ago my dad was diagnosed with brain cancer for the second time. The diagnosis itself was not a surprise, as dad was loosing strength in his legs and was getting more easily confused. However, he has gone downhill a lot over the last few weeks. I have not written many articles lately because i have been spending as much time as possible with him. He was admitted to the local hospital on Thursday and was sent to the closest cancer clinic yesterday. I am writing this on Fathers Day morning as my brother, sister and mom take the three hour drive each way to visit him.

As Mother Nature brings havoc to the east coast with a huge snow storm, we look back on January and the most read articles. Probably the only surprise I have is that how popular some of the older articles still are.

December is finally over…and I hope that is the end of the cold and flu season for this household! The staff at Off Road Action wish you and your family a happy new year! Here is your 10 most read articles in December 2010.

We are actively looking for authors to research and write articles for Off Road Action. We are looking for people that have an interest in vintage vehicles and love talking about them. Each staff member has their own areas of specialty and we are looking to expand our knowledge base. The fact that we do not currently pay for articles is overshadowed by the fact that you get to see your name on the front page of Off Road Action! We are working on reimbursing our authors, but need for the advertising income to become a little larger first.

September has been a very interesting month at Off Road Action. We had a number of articles that went viral on the social media scene, with blogs and websites from around the world having wrote articles based on the research of Off Road Action. This lead to record amounts of visits to this website, including one day that had double the amount of individual visits than the previous record. Overall, it was a great month!
