The title makes perfect sense, no? If you are part of the larger internet community as a whole (StumbleUpon in particular) - well, it very well might. I'm delighted to say that Canucklehead.ca is enjoying a bit of a boom in traffic as of late. I hate to sound boastful - but we are talking 281,069 visitors (557,598 pageviews) in the last 30 days alone. Now, when I say Canucklehead.ca, I guess I should actually give credit where it is due, the LOOK section - which gets about 98% of said traffic. In fact, recently it has mainly been owing to 'INSANITY WOOD.' This one item alone has gotten 129,155 pageviews! What is this magical thing?
Well, see for yourself:
I think my bed frame in high school must have been made of this ....
Oh, I know what you are thinking - this makes perfect sense. I work long and hard on my site to come up with original and insightful content that is seen by a handful or a few hundred people, hell maybe even a few thousand and yet it pales in comparison to the wonderful slice of awesomeness. Of course I'm kidding.
I've decided that the main reason that there are SO many funny picture and video sites out there is that they get a LOT of traffic. In short, they work. If the goal is to simply get traffic then this is the quickest path to success. I hate to say it but they are a perfect fit for current society - that's right, I'll say it again, short attention spans and such. Anyway - I've gone on too long already and I really don't care how I get the traffic, actually, I guess at the end of the day I'm not even sure I care if I get it. Well, I do care about visitors to my blog (this section) of my site because many of you are friends and I consider this section my baby. Well, after my two actual babies. Oh heavens - what am I going on about? In closing, be careful this holiday season - especially around the tree. Insanity wood - coming soon to your town soon.
CHEERS!
