Please come back... I didn't mean what I said!!! Honestly!!!

I just checked Google Analytics and yesterday I had ZERO visitors! Not just on this blog but on all my blogs!!! Gee, what happened. O_O
Obviously a malfunction with Google but still an obscure reading, LOL.

  5. hI THERE jACK, my stats are very low too. I probably average about 5 views per day when not counting the views i get from australia which are probably me anyway.haha.. My blog is a flop and my facebook wall is even a bigger flop, I posted a million things on that Onar page and only you replied. It's just a waste of time really. Since I don't have anything to sell or to promote I just might ditch facebook and concentrate on the blog,that is whenever i feel like posting for the 3 or 4 people that are interested.LOL. I'm not pissed off or anything but I think it's really funny. Maybe it's time to change the URL again ? No only joking !!! HAHAHA

  6. Hey there, Joe. I can't tell you what to do or how to become successful. If I could I would be running a website I could earn some money on, haha.

    But I can tell you THIS: Readers are cattle! They are the worst kind of humans. In fact they are not even human but garbage! Readers are equal to what I have under my shoes!!! They're the lowest form of being. Even rats are more human than readers. You spend time and energy on long insightful pieces and what do they do? Nothing. At the most you get one stinking reply from some drunk guy in Sweden, that's all. Boo-fucken-hoo! I may be exaggerating a teeny weeny bit here but what I'm trying to say is people don't respond to what we write. I write on that Onar page too and nobody gives two shits. I write on other FB pages and nobody cares. A handful of friends responds to my personal posts on FB but that's about it. On my Backyard Asia blog I get 5 hits a day. On my Danish section of this blog I get 10 hits on a GOOD day. But it doesn't worry me. I'm sure there are people who read our Onar FB page posts but we live in a cyberspace world where everybody (except you and I) have become so used to flicking thru tons of info all the time that there's no time for stopping op and actually responding. I often keep my writings fairly short because I know people don't read long pieces online. If I wanted to write long articles I'd do it in real print. People take time to read real print but not long blog posts. Needless to say, I'm talking in general terms here, I'm sure there are exceptions. I know of at least one guy in Sweden who reads long posts (but maybe he's drunk). I've said this to you before: If you don't get enough fun out of writing your stuff and making a blog then don't do it! If someone writes to you and is happy for your stuff then that's a huge bonus but it's not something you (or I or anybody) can or should expect. If you want more readers then stick with it. I did this blog for at least a year before I started getting more readers than the regular handful. But if you stick with it and try and get your blog link around then there's a good chance you'll succeed. But then again, you may also just plummet to the ground. I write on forums/message boards and maybe some of my readers are people who initially got to know me as a poster on those boards and wanted to check out my blog posts. And regular updates are important. Not all posts have to be highly important or totally informative. Some of mine are pointless but I try and always make them funny, or related to my pop-culture stuff, or even just personal in regards to me. But then again, what works for me may not work for you. Maybe you'll never exceed five readers. Maybe you would be better off living under a bridge. Or driving a racecar, or being a butcher. Or being a mob member. But whatever you want my only real advise is to spend a little time figuring out what it is you want and then stick to it. If you want a blog then make a blog and screw the knowledge that you only have five regular readers for 18 months. If you stick with it you WILL succeed eventually. Probably.

  7. Well said jack, i don't really care, really !! I think it's hilarious. I'm happy with the blog it's that i'm too lazy writing the stuff that goes with the pictures. If you've noticed my blog is mainly pictures and very little written text. Yep, I've got a low attention span too, i can't read something that's more than a couple of paragraphs long unless i'm really interested in that particular topic.
