And the winner is.....

Every once in awhile it's fun to check behind the scenes of the blog and see some of the stats. It's fun for me to see that people are reading in Korea, Japan, France, Australia and all of the other places that I see in our results. Hello one and all! We are glad you've found us and I, personally, hope you find reasons to keep coming back.




Today I was curious not about where people were visiting from, but why. Give the people what they want, right? If there was a clear winner, well, I'd try to write more about that subject. So...what was the winning search that landed on our blog (in the last month)?


Drum roll please....





Jody Perewitz!

I did say "give the people what they want" right? Well, we are ahead of you on this one, thankfully. You will be seeing a lot more with Jody and Kryptonite soon. Until then, you can always catch up with her on the Plog.

Some folks who have been clicking here have been disappointed, I know. They are coming to find out how to say "hello in Korean". Yikes! Sorry...I don't have a clue. But Google languages says it's 안녕하십니까. Because I'm not sure those characters will show up on all browsers, you can go here and see it. Hope that helps.

People are also searching in droves about the Evolution series oval, New York Mini, Jeff Clark motorcycles, Tony Hawk and Wonder Woman Lock.

I'm just fascinated by all of this info. But, I'll stop now....for those of you who aren't as interested. But, if you want more Jody, stay tuned...or head over to the Plog - she's just posted about a snowboarding trip she took last weekend.

Jody - you're a "stah"!

Hello Korea!

You can find Kryptonite security products in many different countries around the world - something like 50+ countries. That's a lot. But, we aren't in every country...yet. We're working on it!

Part of our expansion has taken us into Korea. We've just signed up two new distributors there - BikeMart is the one that is carrying some of our powersports products. Although I don't read Korean...don't speak it either...I just went to their site, found a blank box in the top right corner, assumed it was a search box, typed in "Kryptonite" and viola! There we were.





It's kind of fun to see "Kryptonite" translated to Korean. And, Evolution series 4 as well.


On the bicycle side, Bikesell has come on board. I thought their site would be even easier to navigate because they have some English words on the home page, but apparently not. I think the issue is that you need a password (their dealers have them, I'm sure) before you can view things. At least that's my story and I'm sticking to it (could also have something to do with the above mentioned...I don't read Korean). I'm sure it is all me, by the way.

But, I did find this page where I can see the Evolution series 4 U-lock. Cool!

We are working on getting their info on our main website, but for now, if you are in Korea (and I know some of you readers are!) and interested in getting Kryptonite, go to one of these websites and they'll be able to help you out.

Welcome to the Kryptonite team, Bikemart and Bikesell! Glad to have you both on board.
