99 unique hits, thanks BokJae

Published by G at 10:01 pm under Mumblings

I usually do not bother much about the number of hits/visitors I get to this blog since I am unable to “get into full gear” to do the things I had intended for this blog. However, I still check my stats daily to see if there is any unusual activity. True enough, I almost fell off my chair yesterday! The first thought that came to my mind was “Statcounter must’ve gone haywire! There has got to be an error somewhere!”. So I quickly checked the referrers and voila, it was the result of a review done by one kind soul, BokJae, at Stumbleupon.com

BokJae’s is one of my favourite blog I recently discovered. I like the way his writings brings me back to earth and reminds me to be thankful for the little things I have in life. I am not saying this just because of the hits BokJae’s review brought me. I had meant to write about several recently discovered blogs that I really like but had been stuck with the house stuff. So for now, I will write about BokJae first, just to thank him. I had wanted to reciprocate his kindness by reviewing his blog on stumbleupon.com also, but I think it requires its toolbar to be installed in order to be able to review a blog? I see that BokJae has also given reviews to many of his fellow bloggers and I know they must be as grateful as I am.

99 unique visitors may be a norm to many blogs but it is extremely unusual for an uninteresting and not-so-active new blog with a page rank of a big flat zero like mine! Below are screenshots of my stats.

The answer …

Thanks again, BokJae, you’re the man!

    mommibee,
    99 unique visitors are a lot! I don’t even get half of it. hehe.

    Hello, I am Mini Mommibee, please do not take me away.  Mommibee drew me, so please ask her if she's willing to share me with you, Sorry buzzz buzzzKok, it’s just for that one day only, thanks to BokJae. If it didnt require its toolbar to be installed, I would have signed up to review BokJae, your blog and many others too just to boost everyone’s links. I am unsure abt the security of installing toolbars from 3rd party softwares.

    mommibee:

    Good for you. If you have many people stumbled and reviewed your page, you can get huge traffic. Let’s say 2000 unique visitors in one day. You will have to be a good stumbler yourself before getting even more traffic.

    I have research on StumbleUpOn for sometime. You can see many of my stumbleUpOn related post on my blog, if you really care about incoming traffic. StumbleUpOn – Traffic Booster

    Keep that in mind, StumbleUpOn only give you short term traffic boost. Content is king. A good quality content and unique site will bring long term traffic.

    Good luck!

    Hello, I am Mini Mommibee, please do not take me away.  Mommibee drew me, so please ask her if she's willing to share me with you, Sorry buzzz buzzzThanks Terence for your valued input and for the link to check out. I’ll read up your blog abt Stumble Upon to find out more. I agree with u, these are short term (well for me it’s a once off) hits only. I honestly do not expect this blog to receive many interested visitors as my contents are all jumbled up (more of a personal blog rather than audience targetted blog), no planning, no promo, no making myself (blog) visible to enough people and most of all, it’s got sponsored posts now and then (major turn off, hehe).

    mommibee,
    No need to review my blog lah. My blog is just too lousy to be showed off. haha!

    Better not installed any toolbar. After you’ve installed, it might be difficult if you wanna get rid of it. Just a two cents advice from me. :)

    Hello, I am Mini Mommibee, please do not take me away.  Mommibee drew me, so please ask her if she's willing to share me with you, Sorry buzzz buzzzKok, you’re so modest, hard to find modest young people these days! My hubby would agree with u abt hesitation of installing toolbars – I hv to get his green light before I install any software, toolbar, etc on my PC coz he’ll be the one to have to fix any damage I make or clean any virus I get ;)

    wei, thanks for dropping by my shopping blog. you don’t have to since i know u r pretty tied up now.

    what about installing toolbar with stumbleupon? i wanted to get my alexa score lower and i think it also requires to install toolbar. i dislike having those “i don’t use much” toolbars on my desktop. that’s why my alexa is so high … high is not too good … the lower the better.

    Hello, I am Mini Mommibee, please do not take me away.  Mommibee drew me, so please ask her if she's willing to share me with you, Sorry buzzz buzzzWell no worries – u’re one of the first few bloggers whose entries I honestly enjoy reading. Yeah unfortunately toolbars have to be installed (smart gimmick by those companies eh?). I dont have much on my desktop too, no time for them and am not going to that extent (just like nottibee’s blog walaaaa I blocked all search engines from indexing it but still could get PR3 …. so I am sure all other active blogs would perform much better in time). I am sure ur Alexa score will lower very soon too.

  12. Angeleyeson 20 Jul 2007 at 8:29 pm

    wow! wow! wow! I still dono how to get that tool bar up by not get scolded by my PB… *sigh*

    Hello, I am Mini Mommibee, please do not take me away.  Mommibee drew me, so please ask her if she's willing to share me with you, Sorry buzzz buzzz15 secs of fame only dear and all passers by only ler. If I stumbled upon my own blog also i wont visit again lah, hahahaha (for now anyway).
