@jae jun- since the links in the comments are “nofollow” it doesn’t mean a damn thing. I may have messed things up a bit when I was using a different commenting system (which crapped out link luv…I dumped it)

Is there a reason why you change your name between Leo and onlinemarketing? Is this for SERP as well? Jae Jun’s last blog post..Recommended Reading - May 2, 2009

Hi craniac, thanks for stopping by. There is nothing wrong with posting daily. Some niches require it because of the volumes of information out there.

Hi SBA, you points on your blog are well taken. Content is much more than what some people make of it. Sure, good content will get you noticed but really without content, you won';t get ranked in the search engines. And search engine traffic isn't dependent on opinions from readers or suggestions.Thanks for stopping by.

I found your blog in my Google alerts (actually via a comment you made on another blog — I was intrigued by his awe at the length of your posts). After reading this post I think you'd be interested in my post 'content is NOT king' . So may new bloggers rush to publish every day, defining content as any 200 word post they can feed the daily readers. If readers are like me, they oversubscribe to blogs on Google Reader and don't open the reader for some blogs until a week later [can then see 7 full posts, no need to visit and click any ads!].

Also I want to contact you but didn't see a form or email addr. Do you have a SU or Blog Catalog profile?

Very interesting! I came here via Griz, by the way. I've been posting daily and confused about whether it was the best so your post is really helpful.

Thanks for visiting. That is what the world is about, right? Different opinions. The way I look at it, you can work your hands until they are blue but if no one knows you exist, there is little chance you will recognized.

This is a very interesting article. And actually, completely different from what other websites claim out there. However, it makes complete sense. If we are not marketing our articles, then how will people come to know that such articles even exist. Thanks for giving this insight.

Hi Sherry,

Thanks for stopping by. Yeah, I admit it….I use friendfeed, lol. And frankly, it works pretty well as far as getting residual traffic to this site. It is just another way to be social and using social sites has a different set of rules to use and manage it effectively.

I am actually working on a post in regards to friendfeed and some of the other social networks I use but I was intending on leaving that for a couple weeks down the road.

I will leave you with this though…..

I started using friendfeed for this blog 20 days ago (exactly)…..Here are the numbers…(the second number is in comparison to my other traffic….

1. Total visits via FriendFeed- 130
2. Pages per visit- 1.51/1.90
3. Avg. Time on site- 2:24/3:42
4. Bounce Rate- 78.46%/70.05%

So, as you can see from the time on my site and the bounce rate, the time spent on my site via friend feed is much lower and the bounce rate is much higher. Bad? Not really. To be frank, the numbers don't tell the whole tale. Some rooms did better than others. I have just been testing the waters to see which rooms speak the same language as me.

Anyway, I do intend to kind of go over this at a later date. For now, hopefully this will be enough to wet your appetite to the possibility of using friendfeed for promotion.
