30 Day Traffic Flow Review

Posted by: Sandy | Comments (3)

I just had an email from Dave Nicholson about a new product 30 Day Traffic Flow from John Thornhill and Dave Whitworth.

John is a well known internet marketer from the UK and has a good reputation for excellent products. I had not come across Dave Whitworth before but he apparently increased the traffic to his cycling blog by  87% in 30 days using this system of free traffic generation he devised.

I am always looking for ways to increase traffic to my sites so it was a no brainer to take a look. And, at a prelaunch price of only $10 I just had to buy it.

Which Social Share Plugin Should I Use?

Posted by: Sandy | Comments (2)

I suddenly realized that since I gave my blog a makeover I did not have a social share plugin. I had added the Twitter and Facebook follow me buttons at the top of my blog but I did not have any share buttons at the end of my posts.

Free Traffic & backlinks

Having a social sharing plugin is another way to get free traffic so I really need one.  If by any chance someone shared one of my blog posts they liked and it, by some miracle, hit the front page of one of the sites then I could get a ton of traffic.  Then there’s always the possibility that someone might refer to it on their blog and I would get some backlinks too. Well, I live in hope!
