Revamping the site

So today I have been working hard at revamping the site. I believe that the current sites design does not help my visitors to view the content I have put up and lessen their visiting enjoyment. So I have decided to go with the following template.



This in my opinion looks a lot nicer and more organized than that of my old website layout. This will hopefully lower the bounce rate and increase my page views. Also the way I have set it up I think it will allow me to rank higher for keywords than I normally would. But the effects will be seen when I launch this latest edition. Right now I am currently testing the site to see if all the links work correctly. Also I am putting up some content so that it isn't just an empty website. It will be a rolling launch tomorrow as I hope to get the new layout up and running by the morning. Then I will simply add content as the day progresses.

This is one of the effects of that spark that was lit the other day. Hopefully though it will be a positive step forward and bring me closer to my goal - Several hundred visitors per day - upon achieving this I will have a big party to which you are all invited!

More Content

Today has been a slow day for traffic. I only received 1 visitor. I did add some more content up so hopefully I will rank for some more keywords. My plan is to just constantly add more and more content and see if it gets me more and more traffic. I will continue to just keep adding content until I get to the stage where I have several hundred pages of reviews and articles and tutorials and what not.

So hopefully I will start seeing more and more traffic everyday. I will give you a screenshot of my traffic at the end of the month. Hopefully it will be getting to the stage where I can brag about it.

Anyway I need to get to bed. Lots of work to do tomorrow!

Monthly traffic stats

I am going to set myself a long term goal here. I am going to try and reach and average of 200 visitors per day in the next 3 and a half months. I will post monthly traffic stats and give you screenshots of my google analytics graphs. 

By February the 1st I hope to achieve this goal. 

If I get to that stage I will throw a party and you are all invited.

So anyway today I will be putting in screenshots and cheats and reviews. I don't want to do too much tonight but as long as I get a couple pages done I can rest happy. I read an interesting note yesterday: The small blog post you post now could end up getting you. I also looked at another blogs traffic, and he posted regularly and his traffic just kept going up. Hopefully it will be the same here.

Anyway New tutorials will be on my website tonight, Maybe even a new website template. I am not sure yet but I will do my best!

Bye for now!

Content = More Traffic

So guys I have been reading up a bit on getting more traffic to my website and there seems to be one solid way to do this. Provide unique content to my visitors. This not only increases my long tail keywords but it will increase the short keywords as well. Getting more long tail keywords means that I will be able to generate more traffic.

So anyway I am going to be putting up loads more pages of content onto my site in a bid to increase my traffic to like 20-30 a day. Right now I am building a solid foundation on which my house will be built. If I start generating lots of organic traffic then I will be higher ranked for the newer articles that I produce, which will give me more traffic and hopefully it will be a steep incline in the amount of visitors on my site every day.

Anyway I am planning to create a small-medium sized computer shop on my tech page. This means that I will not only have more traffic but I will also have the possibility of sales from amazon. 5% per sale may not seem like much but if I sell 1 £200 graphics card thats suddenly an easy £10 in my bank. So I really need to start building it up. Tomorrow I will hopefully add around 10-20 items in my shop. Each with its own unique page for more details. This means that I will have more adbrite impressions and make more money!

So anyway I need to get started.

My tasks for tomorrow:


  1. Get small list of products into my shop. 10-20 products minimum
  2. Work on another article or 2
  3. Put some more help guides e.g cheats, walkthroughs.
  4. Get some more games up on the go. I need to start filling in my A-Z of games list.
Hopefully all of this will allow me to generate that bit more traffic, but we will have to wait and see.

More updates soon!
