SQLAuthority News – 1 Million Visitors in last 1 year – [Update 2019]

1 million visitors in one year was a milestone I had never imagined. When I began SQLAuthority, I didn’t know where this journey would lead. Reaching that first million in 2007 gave me a reason to pause and say thank you.

Thank you for reading, asking questions and sharing what you know. Writing this blog has taught me a great deal. Every question gives me another reason to learn and explain something more clearly.

Looking Back in 2019

When I started the blog in 2006, I didn’t know I would still be writing it in 2019. Yet here I was, thirteen years later, feeling the same gratitude. The audience had grown, but the pleasure of talking with readers had stayed with me.

While installing SQL Server 2019 in Docker, I thought about how far the product had come. SQL Server had grown beyond Windows to run on Linux and in containers. I was grateful to the SQL Server and Microsoft teams for that work.

Still Enjoying the Journey

A milestone is a good time to look at the numbers. It’s also a good time to remember why the work matters. For me, the conversations with readers have always been part of the reward.

That feeling connected the first anniversary in 2007 with this update in 2019. I was still learning, still writing and still happy to be here. Thank you for being part of the journey.

1 million is not only a visitor count, it is a reminder to thank the people who keep reading.
