Our viewers are worldwide, of course, but the majority are from the United States, Canada, and other countries where English is dominant or one of the major languages spoken. I’m always surprised that the local market posts (which we update monthly) and neighborhood profiles seldom make this list of the most popular articles on this website. The exception is the San Jose Real Estate Market report, which is consistently pretty high. I do not know how to filter results to what local users are reading, but I suspect that the audience is the difference. The market posts and neighborhood profiles seem to be what make people reach out to us – so this is an interesting thing!
We have a number of other websites. If you’re looking for information on Silicon Valley beyond Santa Clara County, check out popehandy.com, which includes a broader area. Or if you’d like to learn a lot about just Los Gatos, we have a tremendous number of articles on the town, the many neighborhoods, and events at LiveInLosGatosBlog.com.
