Top 5: May 2010

May was a new record for traffic, but not only due to regular visitors and search traffic… this month’s visitor count got a nice boost from a Digg submission from Ray at Financial Highway. Just over 15,000 extra visitors in one day came to see Alan’s post, Dirty Car Dealership Tactics.

As I mentioned on Friday, over the summer I’m on board as a writer in the SweetCents section at SweetSpot. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out my first post, Pull The Plug On Your Power Bill.

I also have a few more ideas for the site, but I’m thinking I’ll set up a short survey that I’m hoping you’ll all fill out to help shape the future of Canadian Finance Blog!
