Hmmmm

So Monday, I slave away for hours writing like ten posts. I get respectable traffic.

Yesterday, I kvetch about my computers falling apart, and get about `10% more hits.

Sigh.

OK. I know what sells...

My site traffic was unusually high yesterday as well. I assumed it was due to my parody of Nick Coleman, but going through my site meter results, it appears to have been totally random.

Mitch, all you have to do is post a picture of your exposed behind, and your traffic will go through the roof. Trust me, I know these things.

It's not the quantity of traffic Mitch, it's the quality. Do you really want the kind of people who get excited about other people's computer problems becoming regulars? Although your geek quotient isn't approaching Lileks-like levels yet, it is getting up there. All that Linux talk draws 'em like badly-dressed, poorly-coordinated, socially-inept moths to the flame.

Hey I comment here just to make your posts look less lonely! :-P

Don't you think that actually promoting yourself on the radio yesterday had at least a little impact? It's not often you can promote your site during the week on a national radio show.

Of course it also helps that you've been posting more often recently. It used to be checking here once a day was more than enough, but these days you're actually putting things on the site more often.

Double posting helps too! (grin!)

And not all of us have such appealing exposed behinds.
