Entrecard contest

In the beginning of June I released a contest to giveaway 10,000 Entrecard credits to the blog which drives more traffic to my blog. Until now less then 20 people post an article about it and their chances are pretty huge to win the big prize. If you didn’t write about it yet hurry up the time is running!

Alexa traffic

Beside so many big bloggers talk bad stuff about Alexa that they are not accurate enought I like it. Since I released the Entrecard contest my Alexa traffic skyrocket.

Google position

If you search for “what about brazil“, the name of this blog, the results will show it in second place. I have no idea why Google algorithm does that. The name of the site is the name of the search you’re looking for and even though the name doesn’t show in the first place.

I good example of Google search show inaccurate results are when you look for “john chow dot com”, for some reason Google punished John Chow and push his blog away from the first page.

Technorati authority

Believe it or not my technorati authority jump from 12 to 108 in only one month. I believe that happened because more people found my contest interesting and linked to it. Thanks for the people who linked to my blog.

Comments on the blog

In my opinion if a blog has many comments means that the people who reads it found it interesting to leave a comment on it. I’m glad that some people spent time on my blog and left comments. Thanks everybody.

Advertisement

I’m really thinking of remove all the advertisement I have in my blog. First because it’s not bring me money nor traffic and second because I could use the space to show something interesting like pictures of Brazil or so.

Recently I read so many articles about people who decide to remove the ads from the blog and the readers like it better.
