Does One Post Get All the Views?

Every now and then I check my stats on google analytics.  Probably just like all of you.  For me though... I have certain posts that get tons of views.  My Project Disney posts.  Now I am not bothered by this... but I wonder if those readers go on to read the rest of my blog?  Project Disney is such a specific subject.. I read the source material for the movie and then compare book to movie.



I often wonder if other bloggers have a post that has kind of gone what we will call "viral" on their blog.  What is that post about?  I do think some of the hits on my Disney posts come from Pinterest.  Where people could possibly just been clicking for the picture itself. I try to find ways to entice these readers to go to other places on my blog.  I have read blogger tips that say to look at your most popular posts and use those posts to get people to stay on your blog.



What do you do on posts to keep people around?  Do you do anything special for this? Of course getting people to your blog is easy, but getting them to follow and stick around is a whole different ball game. I am using linkwithin (which looks funny now as I get a blog makeover), I link up to links that I think are relevant to the post, I do try to get people to bounce around.  What do you think?  Oh and I just had to throw some Archer gifs in this post ... they have nothing to do with anything!
