So I decided to upload a personal GEDCOM (my direct ancestors back 10 generations with no auxiliary family - siblings and their families) as my full database has over 5000 entries. The file I created only had about 1500. And for the last few days, I've been examining the data that was transferred to the online tree and making the necessary edits.
You are given the opportunity to link your personal blog to the WikiTree site, thus you see a new link in the right hand panel of this blog.
Here is what the Navigation page looks like:

This is, at this time, a free website so if you are looking for a place to share your data and/or do some searching, you should give it a look. WikiTree
My surprise at the number of you who have happened upon my blog is growing. I was pleased when it was 75-100 hits, but this has grown to over 3,500. This tells me that finally my blog is being picked up by search engines. When I start getting more comments, I'll really feel I have 'arrived.'
The page that appears to get the most 'hits' is the one about my "Famous Ancestors." This is probably because of the addition of so many popular names like Thomas Jefferson and Paul Revere. Another page that gets a lot of 'hits' is the list of my father's ancestors. He is descended from many Mayflower lines, which may be the cause of this particular site 'popularity.'
