Remember that Squidoo lens you forgot you made?

Go check and see if it’s become a featured page that’s now getting a handful of clicks every week. That’s what I just found out with one of my lenses. I haven’t touched it in over a year, and yet it’s getting visited. And featured. And potentially sending a dribble of traffic to the site [...]

Now showing FeedBurner stats

I’ve got my Feedburner stats now showing in the lower right-hand sidebar. I’m hoping they’ll hit the triple digits before the end of the year.
Also, changed the theme.

Welcome, new readers!

It’s the latest “all the kidz R doing it” rage to write a welcome post when you notice more people are subscribing to your feed of late. Since that is the case here at AMJ, here’s my idea of a suitable welcome post that doesn’t waste your time thanking you for doing something you didn’t [...]

Thanks, Mark

For including me in this list of top affiliate marketing blogs here. I’m getting some nice traffic from that page.

Word on the street

Something exciting happened this weekend. One of my authors on Project B-2 Bomber attended a convention about the topic of that site. While there, she wore a CafePress shirt advertising the site.
People came up to her and said they were readers of the site and talked about how much they enjoyed it.
I don’t think any [...]

Project Mai Tai Update – over 100 uniques per day

Project Mai Tai is still progressing about like similar sites I’ve had that weren’t banned by Google. Mai Tai has attracted a link or two from a fairly high-traffic site in its niche, and that seems to be bringing in most of the visitors. Last month, the daily visitors were between about 15 [...]

Project Mai Tai – Digg Traffic

Yesterday I reported that I’d done something I hoped would significantly boost Mai Tai’s traffic. While I was at it, I also dugg one of my posts.
The thing I did to significantly boost traffic hasn’t come through yet – we’ll see if it does. The Digg effect, however, brought me 79 new visitors [...]

My first attempt at a Digg post

I had an idea for a post that could maybe be right for Digg (I’ve been reading a lot about Digg lately). I’ve posted the story on another site, submitted it to Digg, and proceeded to wait and see what happens.
My maximum number of Diggs on anything has to be around 3. I [...]

Linkbait not a total failure

It might be slightly premature to refer to my latest linkbait campaign on Project B-2 Bomber as a “success”, but it didn’t totally flop from a lack of interest like some of the others. It’s getting responses on site, at least: whether or not people are telling their friends, I don’t know yet. [...]

Directories going paid

All my directories now require a reciprocal link for free links, and offer paid options for regular non-recip links and featured links. I started these directories a couple of years ago and kept them completely free all that time, but now with the amount of spam I have to clear out of them every [...]
