I am quite weak in terms of pulling traffic to my blog. Need to learn more obviously. I wonder how people can traffic from here and there. It just amaze me. I setup a new blog and my target traffic for the first phase is 1000 unique visitor per day. This time I will focus more on SEO. Hope that it works well. By the way, thank you for your post. It gives some idea and inspiration on how to attract more traffic. MedicalRecords´s last blog post..6 Medical Students’ Tools

[...] more bloggers to give it a try. John has since stopped using it in favour of his own CommentMilk (ever the original marketer) which adds all sorts of fields to his comment form for things like keyphrase, twitter url etc all [...]

The interesting thing about Alexa is that not everyone uses its plugin in their browsers. What that means is, that Alexa’s results are not always accountable. I mean, if you are getting much traffic from i.e. Macintosh users who not necessarily use the Alexa Sidebar as I do in my Firefox, these visits will not be recorded.

I think what Alexa is doing is a great idea to be developed and fine-tuned in the future when the awareness of internet users grow and they start to install the Alexa plugins in their browsers on a massive scale.

John is extremely inventive with his self promotions, but I still think the hardest part of the entire process is coming up with original content good enough to really blow up. Even without his unique self promoting, if his stuff gets really big, there’s no way he’s NOT making money.

A lot of people have been confused, (including this blog, sorry!) and a lot have other people have used the while image, but provided a link to me, which is fine really. He just seems to be ignoring me, and it looks like he’s done quite well out of the whole thing!

oh dear. I think sometimes people think ‘ruthless’ means that they can be ‘thief’
I get my images and copy taken all the time and it’s a pain to be sure.
I see it does still contain the straightfrommybrain.com in the bottom right corner.

there is the issue of fair use though, as I see it, he can use a thumbnail that links to the original page but taking the whole image as I see it is a bit wrong, especially as he is using it to promote his own site and some people could be confused and think that he made it.

Did you consider making a complaint to the domain host? isn’t it infringement of copyright?

Well a mixture of hard work and not crediting others work! He’s refusing to place a link to me on the page that displays my pensionbook image. which as you can tell has hit a raw nerve
