Status update

Submitted by skykid on April 25, 2008 – 11:34 pmView Comments

Its time for another status update. Lately I have been getting some additional traffic – and its mainly directed to the teach and internet topics. Which means that I am going to start paying more attention to them. My movies category is the most developed one – and the posts in it get their fair share of traffic – I will keep posting in it – but I recognize that some people who came to this blog looking for more music reviews …etc experience some disappointment from the underdeveloped category and it future I will focus on it as well.

Two weeks for now I am going to relocate in another country which means that for a while I won`t be able to post in my blog as often – same is valid for the summer vacation during which I will spend most of my time outdoor.

Finally with 189,015 visits at the time I write this post – I am looking forward for the day when this number will exceed 200 k. Its unbelievable – but it does feel nice to know that someone cares at least a bit for the things I write.

Thank you

  • The related posts show up on individual posts, not on the main page. I can see them here.

    YAY! I’m so glad that your traffic is picking up. There is a new post up on my site you may want to check out How to fix alt and title image tags in the new wordpress.com and there will be another one up tonight as well Part 2 of the image tutorial.

    If you want to disable the “possibly related posts on other people’s blog” function as I have done you go here -> Design -> Extras
    uncheck the check box and click “Update extras”.

    I have turned both “extras” off on my blog. :roll:
    I’m not into advertising for snap previews which slows page loading time or into “related posts” on other people’s blogs.

    The reason I use the theme Contempt is because the html markup actually validates, unlike most of the other themes. You may want to consider switching or not. I did a validation of your site and the report is here http://tinyurl.com/58h8xa

    Best wishes and do drop me a note in my shoutbox at BC if you need anything. :)

    Thanks for your great comment Timethief . As you advised I disabled related posts – because I would like to have a control of what content my blog links to . As for the snap previews I think that they have some usability – but at the same time I have seen quite a few negative opinions on them. I doubt that I will change my theme – because I am so used to it – I have tried at times – used for a while one which had 2 sidebars instead of 1 , but at the end reverted to the current one. I think that most visitors are used to it as well.
