SFGate.com’s page view traffic has dived from an average ranking of 791 three months ago, to 1,145 today. That’s a drop of 44 percent…But when that’s combined with the 10 percent drop in traffic after SFGate.com’s director blocked this blogger from posting after a series of blog entries on Texas Governor Rick Perry and allegations of a romantic encounter with Texas Secretary of State Geoff Conner in 2005, it totals a decrease of almost 60 percent since the winter of 2011.

Stay tuned.
