(Not actual HHDotcom numbers but an incredible simulation. Actual numbers too embarrassing to display.)
Yesterday was the single biggest day in the history of HHDotCom.
I know why, I think.
For nearly 6 days I wasn't able to post anything due to a mysterious Server Issue-and you people were nice enough to keep coming back to the site to see if it was fixed.
In fact you came back again and again and I had a record day in terms of visits.
Funny how for the last 7 or 8 months I've been trying to pump out all this different content.
Humour, human interest, pathos, contests, book excerpts and gripping personal information.(Last week I admitted to being a Meth addict and I gave out my secret Meth-name!)
But none of that generated the kind of numbers that Not-Posting anything did.
Wow.
If I'd known I could have had more people come to my site if I didn't put up anything new, I would have stopped writing months ago.
I wonder if that would have worked for me on the Radio. I could have had a show and actually gotten better numbers if I didn't show up.
Oh no they've tried that and so far, not so much.
At any rate thanks for the bump in traffic but unfortunately for my stats, I am going to resume my little posts and just have to suffer through the reduction in visits.

The day I posted my own ass was one of my highest traffic days ever. What does that say? I am not sure. HNT is great, not so much on Get Your OJ though. I prefer female HNT. (That means Half Naked Thurdsays, and it's HUGE around the Blogosphere). Yes, I am a geek and use words like Blogosphere. I even remember the first "Live From The Blogosphere" with all those Tony Pierce types getting together and doing this live.. blog.. convention.. thingie..
but I digress.
One trick is to say... "coming soon a post on... something cool..." then wait a day or two before unleashing it.
gets em every time
