Thanks to everyone who has ever read or commented on the blog! I just noticed today I have over 10,000 views on the blog. Maybe they're mostly from me, or people coming on to take the pictures (I'm guilty of that too haha!), but I do know at least some people are reading and helping by sharing the blog!
10,000 views may not seem a lot, fuck some people get that in a day, but I don't really expect anybody to read the shit I have to say. I just do the blog for myself and to connect to people with the same interests in film. I don't have many followers or whatever and I don't really care to be honest, but I am glad to have formed some friendships with people who have similar tastes as mine.
Once again thanks to whoever has taken 5 minutes out of their schedules to read this crap!
Michael.
I don't want to be a killjoy but most of the hits come from Google-bots spidering your site. Check your Stats page. I'd guess that the others all come from me. ;)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations anyway! Now bloody well write something!
Just let me live in my fantasy haha! I know barely anyone reads this and the page views have no reflection on who reads this blog. The only thing I care about is talking to people with similar tastes, like yourself.
ReplyDeleteI'm only funning with you. The key to success is to post often. It doesn't even matter what you write as long as it's every day or so. People look out for new stuff on the blogrolls so you have to stay visible.
DeleteTo be honest I just do it for myself. I plan to post more often but I'm not too bothered about followers now. If anyone wants to read or follow, thats great, but I'm just going to go with the flow! ;)
ReplyDeleteI think all the blogging, vblogging and podcasting is drying up anyway. The heyday was 2009-2010. People are moving on or just giving up which is why you aren't getting any followers. Even two years ago, it was easy to get a "follow for follow" thing going on. The GFC "popularity contest" was killed when Google pulled it from external sites.
DeleteI just write for guys like us. Not too bothered with popularity! Spoken to some cool people through my blog and that's all that matters to me. I do plan to write a post every couple of days, I was focusing too much on the social networking part of it.
ReplyDeleteOnce upon a midnite dreary, while i pondered weak and weary, as i nodded nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, as of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. Tis` the 17 year-old version of Pauline Hickey from 1985 i muttered, so i let her in and buggered her senseless.
ReplyDeleteOn February 1st it`ll be 25 years since we lost Heather O`Rourke, i was wondering if you could do a tribute to her on that day, thanks.
ReplyDeleteI did like the Poltergeist films, so we'll see! ;)
