Free Blog and Feed Pinger

Fri, 11 Jun 2010 03:47:51 -0500

Found this new tool, not bad.

Unlike other pinging tools it actually allows you to alter the services that you ping, and it caters for multiple feeds to be submitted.
Sure you gotta give your email address, but hey, theyve gotta have some way to let you know of updates.

Go and get it now!

Why you need to write stuff down?

Tue, 08 Jun 2010 03:36:58 -0500

I love statistics... well most of the time.

Since all stats programs work in the past, I never can remember exactly what I did that could have caused the spikes.

So here's a yell out to everybody to remember to write down what you did and when you did it when linkbuilding and promoting your stuff.

You'd be surprised what you can learn, if you have something to reference back to when investigating traffic spikes.
