February 2008, A Round Up

1 March 2008 39 Comments

Spammers are really attacking this blog, but luckily I have my Spam Karma with me. I did a manual check a few days back and non of my loyal commentators is affected in anyway. If I did miss any, please let me know. Take a look at the Spams eaten below (end of page) and you will understand why.

Most Talkative

Here’s the Most Talkative for February 2008 and this time, east43street did make it to the top 5 :

Thanks guys, you are great. For March 2008, there will be some changes, the details … tomorrow. If you are in the process to build your page rank, you must not miss my next post.

Statistics

January started perfectly. Traffic in January hit 19,467, thanks to the politician who got smeared, but last month, it was back to normal at about 8,289. It should reach 10K but February has lesser days compared to other months (excuses ).

Traffic for January and February 2008

Statistics is from Statcounter. I don’t use AwStats that comes with my cPanel as AwStats will capture all visits which include GoogleBot, MsnBot, Yahoo Slurp and others, and also my own visit to WordPress Admin. If I use AwStats data, then January hits will look like this :

AwStats Data For January 2008

Anyway, after a year of blogging, I noticed that you can get more traffic by

having a good title
posting your post at the right time
and post frequently

I only managed to hit 20 post per month once, that is in September 2007. Why 20, why not 30 or 25? More about this later .

Notable Post

These are some of the posts I did last month. Check out the Setting Up Your Own WordPress Blog series. It is not finish yet, I have a few more WordPress basics to share with my none WordPress friends.

Another interesting post is regarding Withdrawing Adsense Through Western Union. So far, this is the cheapest and fastest way to withdraw Adsense from Malaysia.

And if you are monetizing your website, you should do a review and start to remove all non performing ads. It’s worth it especially if they are competing with the one making you the most.

Live Life!

Tahniah Azwan, visitor dah makin ramai sekarang.. =) Kalau la ada award untuk “The most silent blogger”, mungkin aku boleh dicalonkan, hahaha…

Bila nak jumpa hang lagi ni? Aku kat KL sekarang, kalau free kolling2 la, aku belanja minum pulak kali ni, hehe..

azwan reply on March 2nd, 2008 6:28 PM:

bila nak jumpa? kau kena balik Prai la .. projek aku tak habis lagi. anyway about the traffic, i don’t think it’s near infomalaya.com level.

Bat reply on March 3rd, 2008 2:05 AM:

Aku taktau lagi bila nak balik kampung, eh, lama betul projek hang tu..

Visitor infomalaya dah tak macam dulu la, hehe..Menurun skit sekarang..BTW Azwan, cuba ‘eksperimen’ dengan permalinks blog hang ni. (hint:rujuk permalink infomalaya)

Mungkin boleh naikkan lagi visitor..

azwan reply on March 3rd, 2008 8:48 PM:

aku tau pasal permalinks tu, nak tukar sekarang pun takde masalah sebab ada plugins, tapi aku prefer set kan azwanhadzree.com dengan year and month. tapi site aku yang lagi satu, aku removekan year and month

Azwan,

You’ve produced 4-5 excellent entries which not only I found very useful, but others too.

Well done for reaching your 1st blog anniversary. Maybe after this you can state what is your target? what is your expectation from azwanhadzree.com?
There should be at least some target, otherwise we’re working blindly. Or did I miss out any entry of yours which stated about your goals?

Your Jan traffic was (as I said before), clever. If we can think of something like that at the right time - right sensational issue…that’s very good. But that is just temporary…but it helps to expose our blog.

azwan reply on March 2nd, 2008 6:37 PM:

i try to maintain a certain level of traffic but at the same time i’ll try to ride on what’s hot at the moment. Take for example this month, March 2008. It’s all about Formula 1 and it’s also the time where we play host. Sepang Kuala Lumpur will be hot. That’s another traffic opportunity.

what’s my goal and target?
ha .. ha .. i want to turn Pro Blogger when i retired from the working world and make lots of money from it

KNizam said:

zaki blogjer said:

That is killer post. I’m still thinking what topic can I write to be considered killer post.

You have high traffic, more than mine. If you put alexa widget on your blog,I bet you can get better rank

Congrats bro

# 2 March 2008 at 4:53 PM

azwan said:

I have Alexa previously and it when up to around 140K but now it has go down back to 340K. Maybe I should put it back.

Syam reply on March 2nd, 2008 9:30 PM:

penting ke utk letak widget alexa tu? tak melambatkan page loading?

azwan reply on March 2nd, 2008 10:11 PM:

dari segi loading, tak lambat pun. duul, masa aku letak. ranking makin bagus, bila dah keluarkan .. makin teruk … nanti aku letak balik dan tengok macam mana ok.

Syam reply on March 3rd, 2008 4:30 AM:

oh yeke..kena cari la widget tu..tapi penting ke ranking alexa ni semua?

azwan reply on March 3rd, 2008 8:50 PM:

bergantung untuk apa kau nak gunakannya

Bent reply on March 4th, 2008 10:46 PM:

My alexa rank is still at the bottom..I’m not ready to display my alexa rank..:)

I am back in the top 5 for February, haha…. Tapi March belum gerenti lagi. Banyak sangat commenters in your blog la….. tenggelam kita.

azwan reply on March 4th, 2008 11:06 PM:

i wonder what would it be like if there are prized like cash, ipoh or even a handphone. maybe i could start getting a free hosting and domain as a prize first. maybe i should talk to my hosting provider.

that will be something interesting.
