Back to work

On January 19, I posted about where I was at and where I was going, and how I was going to get there.  Basically, it boiled down to post, post, post.  I’ve got some blogs with good potential, if only I posted a minimum of once a day, with three days being a much better goal to work toward.  These sites sell ads and they sell aff products.  The ad sales will only improve as the traffic does.  As for aff sales, that’s something I really want to conquer this year - and the secret for all of this is basically just: post, post, post.  That was my plan.

Then Site5 - host to Project B-2 Bomber - went down for a day and a half and I realized they had no plan for dealing with this sort of thing.  I spent a lot of hours researching a new host (FluidHosting - so far I’m happy), and then considerable time getting my sites moved and tweaked.  Then WordPress 2.1 came out, and I upgraded - which on some sites, led to some broken plugins and the search for replacements.  Then I decided to merge a few sites into a monster site, and I’m actually still not done recoding a lot of the affiliate ads - I’m removing all the pre-written copy and replacing it with original content, but this is something I can work on in my spare time until it’s done.

Then I realized Project B-2 Bomber wasn’t loading as fast as it should, and it was because the theme was not terribly WP 2.1 friendly.  So finding a really fast-loading theme I could make look nice took three days.

Amidst all that, I’ve had an awful lot of unexpected stuff happening offline, too.  I’ve been living on 5 hours’ sleep a night for a month.

This weekend is all about sleeping and relaxing.  Starting Monday, I’m going to tackle that posting, posting, posting and no emergencies are going to stop me.
