Why do I get such a disproportional number of visitors from Mount Pearl? It’s just a random small city in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am sure there are numerous web traffic anomalies similar to this in my logs. However this one is much more noticeable than the rest. Mount Pearl sits way out along Newfoundland\u2019s Avalon Peninsula. It’s a stone\u2019s throw from Canada\u2019s (and North America’s) easternmost point at Cape Spear.

Mount Pearl sounds like a wonderful place. Their website boasts<\/a>,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Mount Pearl…’A City Within A Park’ – Enjoy over 60 parks, playgrounds, multi-purpose areas and numerous outdoor\/indoor community and sports facilities throughout Mount Pearl\u2019s neighborhoods. All parks and facilities, as well as Admiralty House Museum & Archives, are linked through a 70 kilometer beautiful forested walkway system.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
