This tip isn’t very specific to WordPress, but something I realized only a few days ago. If you have an article that is ranking well in the search engines, let’s say “wordpress skins” or “picasa web tips“, either of those searches may generate a decent amount of traffic for either Weblogtoolscollection.com or Ginside.com. Well, let me back up a second here. I recently installed the Firestats plugin and it’s been amazing. It’s capable of providing me with the recent referrers, so I can see where my traffic is coming from, and also provide a list of my top posts. So what I did was I took some of those top posts and analyzed them for what keyword they were ranking really well for. I then wrote another article with the similar theme and makeup with keywords to generate some fresh content. I noticed that I was in the top10 for […]

[Continue Reading...]The Art of Stress-free Blogging : This post on Web Worker Daily reminds me of why I should be reading that blog more often. If you have heard of or read the ever-popular productivity book Getting Things Done, by David Allen, you will enjoy this post by Leo Babuata. He goes through the steps to perform and outlines the common gotchas and missteps to avoid. I use the “email bookmarks, thoughts and lists” bit all the time but I use the draft feature in GMail instead of crowding my inbox. I also tend to have spurts of “processing times” when I do stuff related to blogging but since I am so pressed for time, their start and end times tend to vary wildly depending on the day. I “process to empty” twice a day and have schooled myself to do a brain dump every couple of hours either into my […]
[Continue Reading...]Carnival Blog: Or I should have said “How to do a corporate blog, the right way”? The Carnival Blog, written by John and Heidi Heald (Carnival Cruise Director) is actually a lot of fun to read. It is very personal, very personable and reeks of the enthusiasm and the “fun times” that can be had aboard a Carnival Cruise Ship . The fun fact about this blog is that not only is it down to earth and chock full of John’s idiosyncrasies which make it a delicious read, it is also doing amazingly well in terms of traffic, readership and participation. The blog has attracted 600,000 visitors since its inception in March and continues to lead the WordPress.com viewer charts. Now in all fairness, I cannot see Michael Dell write about his trip to the local Sonoma winery in broken English, but the $64,000 trick is to engage your clientèle […]
[Continue Reading...]WeblogToolsCollection.com has vanished from the Technorati index. I have sent support emails and have received nothing more than the canned responses. This blog shows up fine in my watchlist and it is also displayed correctly under “My Blogs” on the homepage but that is where I lose it. The blog page says that it is not indexed and I have quit trying to fix it. This is one company I have a hard time figuring out. They seem to yo yo between very useful, fully in control of their fortunes and their company to down in the doldrum dumps with very little direction within the blink of an eye. I imagine the people that work there must also go through similar vacillations in their work lives and it must be very difficult to endure. I have had contact with many of the folks at Technorati over the years and all […]
