I Moved The URL

I'm unfortunately forgetful, and it appears that it took me nearly a year to post this, but this URL moved twice since the last post. BlogSpinner V2.0, BlogSpinnerV3.0. The latter is the latest version and is a WordPress blog. The theme looks okay some computer screens and purple on others. I plan to change the theme when I have some time, so forgive me until then. Anyway, if you found articles on this site that you liked, you really should read the later editions of this site, especially 3.0 (the latest), as I have more articles about earning a living as a blogger (now that I'm actually doing it).

Google Analytics Accounts Go Beyond Capacity of Servers

Google probably never realized how in-demand web analytics services would be, especially a free one. For a week now, I've been frustratedly waiting for one of my two Google Analytics web profiles to show some stats, to no avail. One profile does show stats, but they take a few days to show. However, when Google is able to get the server horsepower they need to let people add more profiles (and for new people to signup), the value of the service will be immeasurable.

Tips on Traffic - More Blog Summaries

One is an amusing, tongue-in-cheek offering titled "The Ten Evilest and Mostly Unethical Blogging Hacks", by liberalcowboy at Jack of All Blogs (part of the Fine Fools network). This one talks about ways to boost traffic without getting in trouble. Some are actually acceptable, others are downright sneaky.

Tracking Your Website and Blog Visitors Using Google Analytics - A Rundown of Features

Google recently rolled out their Analytics service free of charge. If you've been hoping for a stats package to track your website or blog site statistics, this just may be what you're looking for. The service is free if you either have a Google AdWords account in good standing, or if your site(s) get less than 5 million pageviews per month. (Ah, that'd be something wouldn't it? In this case, I'll have a while to wait before I have to worry about paying.)

Secondly, the more recent entries are excerpts of the full-text entries posted over on Blogspinner V2.0. In other words, the "X" stands for "eXcerpt".
