Hidden Track Celebrates 6th Birthday

Six years ago today we published a post called “Hidden Track: And So It Begins…” that introduced a new site to the blogosphere and 9,467 posts later we’re finally starting to hit our stride. This past year has been our best yet in so many ways thanks to the relentless work of our team of contributors. It’s been our goal since day one that, despite all of us having day jobs, we keep the site as fresh as possible. And that doesn’t just mean keeping the flow of posts coming, we try our best to come up with stories and link to content that you don’t see everywhere else. Hopefully we’ve succeeded.

It’s been an incredible ride over the last 2,000+ days and we’re so thankful to our readers for continuing to visit. We take an enormous sense of pride in the fact that nearly 50% of our traffic comes from repeat visitors, an unusually high number in the music blog game. We hope that trend continues.

Thanks to all of our contributors who put in tons of work both through posts and “behind-the-screen.” We all do this because we’re passionate about sharing the music we love. Please bear in mind that Comments, Facebook “likes” and tweets help motivate us and are appreciated more than you can imagine. Be sure to follow our Twitter feed and “like” our Facebook page where we don’t just share the work we do, but also point you towards articles on other sites we think our readers will enjoy. As always, if you have any suggestions on how to make HT better, don’t hesitate to contact us.
