Since I’m not very advanced when it comes to technology and blogging, I am not an expert in “checking the numbers” or even knowing how to capture them. I know this is important and I plan to continue learning, but for now, I’d rather just write about things that interest me that might be useful for someone else out there. Needless to say, I really appreciated this post.

This inspired me to go a couple days without looking at analytics. Sometimes it is a good idea to just take a step back once in awhile focus on other tactics.

You know, because my blog is designed to generate regional advertising, I take the long view and don’t worry too much if a post doesn’t generate traffic that day. We have these art reviews which don’t attract huge first-day hit numbers, but people find our blog by searching for reviews of these exhibits, and it’s a niche our blog can fill. My hope is these readers will keep coming back.

My main goal is keeping up to my every day posting schedule, without publishing anything that’s an outright embarrassment. And that keeps me busy.

Some extremely generous comments above; thank you.

I work hard to ensure that what I post on this blog is as valuable as possible to as many people as possible.

Whilst all feedback is good, such positive feedback as you have given here makes all the work worthwhile.

Thank You!

Well Jim… The problem is that people have not time to decide if product/service/information is useful.

They need sexy title which lead them to the information (post).

Some times the Sexy Flashy blogs drive people away, they see them as just another ploy or something to pull people in.

I have never been a good or creative writer, but still have the desire to write and share with those that might be interested.

Thank you again for the way in which you are contributing to the online community.

I must admit that worrying about the stats when I’m writing a post distracts me. It tends to make be tense and tension restricts creativity. I guess a blend of both is important

If I had to worry about all the numbers and stats all the time, I would not get any post done. I blog because I like to do so and think I have something to say. In fact, There are people out there that like what I do. The stats? Well, let’s say I don’t financially depend on my blog yet. It’s a more relaxed way of doing things…..
