BLOG TRAFFIC: THE LINE STARTS OVER THERE

March 10, 2024 by

Blog traffic is easy, so expect instant results. Start a blog, write a post, and stand back. The clouds part, the rain stops. You stand in the warming sunshine, not the blazing warm that melts asphalt in parking lot, but the cuddly warm of wearing strap t-shirts and cargo shorts. Let’s warm it up.

LATE BLOOMERS CROWD THE STAGE

December 4, 2022 by

Who loves late bloomers? Not the people they crowd out. It’s hard enough getting any traction and gains without someone new showing up and taking all of the attention. To make it even worse, they might be Baby Boomers.

2021 REVIEW: MOST READ POSTS ON BOOMERPDX

December 31, 2021 by

The 2021 review shows 14,941 readers visited here for 19,549 ‘views.’ It’s the second highest number of visitors after a decade of writing on BoomerPDX.

CHANGING FOCUS WHEN YOU GET WHAT YOU WANTED

April 24, 2021 by

BLOG READERS, BOTS, AND WRITERS

July 10, 2019 by

Google analytics on blog readers is either the biggest tattletale in history, or an effective research tool. It shows and tells where blog readers like you find boomerpdx.

BLOG TRAFFIC: CLICK THROUGH READER CAN’T GET NO SATISFACTION

June 25, 2018 by

    Does blog traffic show up unexpected? What makes readers stay and look around once they do find you on accident?   First, it’s not an accident. At least blog traffic shouldn’t be accidental. That’s why we buy and install Genesis framework on a wordpress platform with a News theme from Studio Press.   […]
