An Experiment of a Webmaster

I don’t play world of warcraft, but I do have an account. I ocassionally log in to take a look around or kill some time, but I just can’t get into the game. I think its probably the playerbase that I can’t stand, since I’m spoiled by Dark Grimoire. Often when […]

Ok, while this isn’t a business, I think its an ok predictor of how popular a web site can be when it has ok content and very little promotion. The site has gotten a little bit of traffic recently from google and other search engines. It seems my story on the comcast […]

I hate mail server administration right now. Actually I always hate it. Mail servers probably piss me off since thats one of my weak areas when it comes to administration. My mail server only exists to get support emails related to my online roleplaying game and to send out lost password/registration confirmation […]

My sitemaps admin screen has shown me the first helpful thing yeserday. The Dark Grimoire started using sitemaps on the forums as of the 2nd to try and get all of its posts indexed where they may have been more difficult to find before. I also modified the posting functions of phpBB2 to notify […]

So, its my BDay. Don’t expect one of my long techno philosophical posts today. I did want to take time out to mention my friends new blog though. His name is Sol and he has quite a few political views. I can just imagine the comments on his blog getting nice and […]

When I was first introduced to myspace I hated it. After thinking back, I realised that I was extremely jealous. When ever I criticise it, I think about a large community web site that I developed and realise I suffer from many of the things I complain about too. I don’t know […]

So, I got my directory submissions done for 2 sites. I set up an email account to receive the emails at yahoo so I couldn’t get spammed and had been checking it regularly. I am fairly happy with the results so far except for one thing. On the game site that I […]

Article writing is something I’m going to begin playing with very soon. I’ll modify and submit my tutorial articles so far to an article distribution site so bloggers and ezine writers can all pick up the story and post the article for free. At first that seems like a bad idea because I’d […]

I don’t like to haggle, but I really like the “marketplace” type feel of buying services. A forum that I frequest has a section where people can announce their services and buyers reply in the post. Its a chance for people to promote their services without having any real established presence like a […]
