Life

Its a stark truth that everyone in this blogosphere lives just for the hits, comments and money if applicable he/she receives. And if you are blogger and you are not able to fetch any of these, then I would say you are not doing your work properly. I have seen people doing all kinds of tricks from poking their friends to visit their blog to registering their blogs on random publishing sites to get some traffic. People die to get traffic and I am not an exception. As recently my linux blog has been receiving a lot of traffic which may be because of the following reasons

1. From Google (people looking for howtos).
2. From planet fedora as my blog is listed there.
3. Because of the improvements in page rank.
4. Because of my recent plugin development for squid, i.e. youtube_cache and intelligentmirror.
5. Because people are dying to use linux
6. Because of the aging factor.

Anyway I thought I’ll publish some results.

I have been receiving 800 Pageviews daily on an average. Alexa says my blog’s rank in 3 lakh.

PS : I think a blogger would know more SEO techniquest than a IE student
