This is the 10,000th post on Muddy River News

QUINCY — Milestones are subjective sometimes.

We try to recognize our launch anniversary every year (April 30, 2021) but when I hit “publish” on this post, it was the 10,000th post on Muddy River News.

We have tried to create content that is informative, thought provoking, interesting or fun. Hopefully, you’ve found something on MRN that you enjoy enough to keep coming back.

We’ve had more than 2.5 million different users read those 10,000 posts about 11 million times since we launched. The greater Quincy-Hannibal metroplex isn’t quite that big, so we have received a little bit of notice away from the Upper Mississippi River basin.

But as our slogan says it’s “Our home. Our news.” Which is why we focus on our roughly 10 county area on both sides of the river.

But thank you for reading this post and the 9,999 that came before it. Please stick around for the next 10,000 posts.

We’ll be here.
