Nerds on Earth exists to highlight the best of a Friendly Local Game Shop (FLGS). That means lots of board game reviews, tips and ideas on roleplaying games, comic book coverage, and other nerdy stuff that’s adjacent to game shops or is beloved by nerds.

To that end, we published 382 articles about nerdy things, with the most being in November with 41. We invite you to crack open a 5 Hour Energy and read them all. 30+ articles a month is something we are proud of, not just because that’s a level of content that far outstrips most websites in nerd culture.

To be clear, Nerds on Earth is a hobby for us and we do it because we love this stuff. We aren’t bankrolled by a multi-media corporation that’s looking to milk nerd culture for profit because of the purchasing power in key demographics. Nah, we just love this stuff like you do and rather than sit on the couch and mindlessly consume media, we find purpose and meaning from creating content, not mere consumption.

So, we’re proud of 382 articles and for another reason as well. We’re proud because Nerds on Earth has two dozen contributors. (Meet the Nerds here.) We’re a community of nerds first and foremost. In a culture that is full of shallow, fleeting relationships, we’re most thankful that Nerds on Earth is something that is done collectively through community and collaboration. That’s a lot of “Cs.”

But we’re also proud of the success of Nerds on Earth. Our traffic for 2018 was 1.45 MILLION, so we just missed a million and a half nerds. I mean, that’s pretty good, but our desire was for infinity readers, so we fell well short of projections. So, tell someone about Nerds on Earth, will ya? Share us on social media and link us liberally on any site you may have. That’s the only thing that will help us improve upon 1.45 million and drive us toward infinity.

Honestly, that’s enough from me. Thank you. Truly. We’re thrilled you’ve found Nerds on Earth, even if this is your first time. Thanks so much and close this out with our 10 most trafficked articles in 2018:
