September 2007

I thought I would do something a little different this time. I would post the traffic comparisons of search engines from July to August:

Yahoo Traffic was up 33.26%
Google traffic was up 5.81%
MSN traffic was down 65.26%

I discovered that I have a link on the “How Stuff Works” and I had an increase of over 250% from that site alone in August and looks like September will blow that out of the water.

Wow! AuctionAds Speak!

by on September 5, 2007

I got an e-mail today from Patrick Gavin, the new owner of AuctionAds, as did all the other 20K or so publishers of AuctionAds.

But why did you wait so long?

Look I know that companies have growing pains, but to send out an e-mail almost 2 months later, to me at least is unacceptable. I think they have lost a lot of publishers since the purchase, like me and many others that I know.

Patrick runs another great company with Text Link Ads and I hope he will turn the tide with Auction Ads, but it maybe just a little too late.

Finally he addresses the concerns for all those who were concerned about the tracking issues:

“We are aware that some publishers experienced ad serving and tracking issues in mid August and we are happy to report those issues have been resolved.”

I would love to here if you saw any changing in your stats.

I think this is a great program and I wish it was working like it did after the first couple of months, before all the problems, but I will not be using them in the foreseeable future.

Back in Town!

by on September 5, 2007

Well I took a little break for the holiday and am back and getting into the grove again.

I am currently spending the day sorting through the e-mails and private messages that I received while I was gone. Seems like that will take a day just to take care of those by themselves, but hopefully I can get it cut down to just a couple of hours.

Update on Let’s Talk Music

I am currently working on the September newsletter and I hope to have it completed by the end of the day, with it being sent in the morning.

vBSEO Update

I will post screen shots in the morning for traffic in August versus July’s traffic. As you saw from my earlier post, July’s traffic was crazy almost a 75% increase over June’s traffic. Let’s hope the trend continues.
