Did i reach the August 1 goals?

The goals is set for August 1st were pretty stiff but i managed to meet them… some of them. I got to 192 subscribers and the goal was 180 while i saw 125,597 (94,808 Absolute Unique Visitors) and the goal was beyond 100k. This is where i didn’t meet the goal. Although to increase the visitor count from 84,376 to beyond 100k was challenging i think i’ll get there one month. I also held a...

Goals for September 1 2008

Last month saw an increase in vistors and subsribers all round. For August i’m going to try something different. I’m not going to advertise talk playstation as much and just focus on organic traffic from search engines. Google sends around 1000 visits to the blog alone and this needs to increase. Competition is tough. So without me advertising the blog i probably won’t get as many...

Lost some visitor count

I lost a few visitor counts during the update period to wordpress 2.6. While i was upgrading to Wordpress 2.6 a few plugins messed up and had to upgrade them too. There were a few days where visitor counts weren’t counting properly in Google Analytics. I use the Google Analytics for WordPress plugin. Basically when i show my stats for July they probably won’t have met the goals i set, but who...

Had some trouble upgrading to Wordpress 2.6

I’ve been having major troubles upgrading to Wordpress 2.6. First of all it knocked out some of the plugins i use, namely Google Analytics, Robots Meta and Sociable. When i upgraded to 2.6 the settings for the named plugins got reset and i had to set the settings again. Not too much of a problem but pretty annoying. I’ve only upgraded talk playstation to 2.6 and i’m leaving this blog...

Page rank update

Google page rank has updated and here is a post to report if this blog and talk playstation has benefited from the recent update. I checked the page ranks this morning and daparky.com is still a page rank 3. I was surprised daparky.com even got a page rank in the last update a good few months ago. I’m happy to say that talk playstation has a page rank of 4! This is probably due to the amount of...
