Every so often I like to report on how the website, ryansrally.org, is doing. What it really is, if you think about it, is a profile of you… the readers. I felt it was again time to do this since we will hit 1.5 million views today. In actuality, this is only since I started tracking this statistic more than a full year after this website came online. Even conservatively, another one million views should be added. So, what I’m saying is this website is easily over 2.5 million.
To make this flow smoothly for you , I have it so every hyperlink opens a new window/tab in your browser. You can then easily close that window and continue exploring (by keeping this post up). I also included expandable tables within this post.
Okay folks, here’s how Team Diviney is comprised.

Amazing!
Outstanding web site. I view it several times each week. I have interest to check up on Ryan as well as read some of the interesting posts. Thanks for your effort to maintain the site….we appreciate it!!
Ken, Have you ever thought of selling advertising on your website to make some money? Might be worth looking into, but I don’t know how time consuming it would be to do it. Just a thought. Way to go!!!
Mary, about a year or so ago I actually did do some advertising (Google AdSense). It was so successful in driving readers to the advertisers that they thought I was rigging it… then cancelled my account and didn’t pay what I already earned! I appealed and lost.
I agree though, this website does have amazing potential for advertisers.
Unbelievable! There has to be another way! I’ll look into it for ya!
Ken Because of you and us too,Ryan will Always be revelant .Once again you are amazing
There you go Ryan the entire world knows you and is behind you as you continue to heal daily.
I was also thinking that the guys who did this to Ryan would never be able to find a place in the world to hide.
Jen took the words right out of my mouth. Wow!
I would say this is a big “Yes” to Ryan staying relevant!
Hi Ken, this is amazing! Did you ever in your wildest dreams think your blog would be this popular when you first started it? And readers continue to find their way here, thus the popularity of it keeps growing.
This blog is a testament to your ability to keep Ryan relevant, even in the hectic world we’re living in. I am fascinated with how deeply your blog posts resonate with so many people, with such diverse backgrounds, going through so many different situations. I think people are so inspired by your family’s strength and resolve that they keep coming back for more.
I know I do. It’s a great way to feel connected to Ryan and feel a part of your lives. We might all be different in our beliefs and backgrounds, but we do have our love and concern for Ryan, you, Sue and Kari that brings us and keeps us together.
Thank you for all the work you put into making this blog a reader friendly place and always interesting. You’ve done a tremendous job keeping the spotlight on Ryan. I know that was always your main goal, but you’ve succeeded in doing that and so much more.
You have been able to reach people across the country and around the world to communicate Ryan’s story. You’ve been able to motivate people to care and show they care by getting involved. You’ve managed to steer the ship and keep the boat above water even during the most stressful of times. For that and so much more you have earned the loyalty of thousands of readers.
I’d say your quest to keep Ryan relevant is a magnificent success. Congratulations on this accomplishment!! Ryan is blessed to have a devoted, smart, determined, loving Dad like you. Long may you run!!
Love, prayers and positive thoughts shining through the autumn rain

The top of your site says, “Tell him I have tried. I have tried to keep memory alive, that I have tried to fight those who would forget…We must take sides. We must interfere.” After reading all of those statistics and awesome information, I believe that you have succeeded, and we are definitely taking sides – Team Diviney Side – and that Ryan will someday see, you have kept his memory alive, you have and continue to fight.
WOW! Does your brain ever stop churning? You are incredible. As you can see, Ryan is relevant!
