For those of you just tuning in, I’ve decided to make Project Mai Tai (domain banned from Google) into an experiment: how far can a decent site get without Google?
I’ve got a couple of fairly regular commenters now.* I’ve had a couple of recent story tips in emails.* My bookmark rate is around 50%, which I hope means the site is “sticky” for those who find it.* I’ve got two Bloglines subscribers and one from Google Feedreader.* I’ve got no linkbait going on - I’m just posting as often as possible (aiming for 3 times per day).
I’ve had one good inbound that has brought me around 80 visitors over a couple of weeks and is still bringing traffic.* And I’m going to try something bold today that might bring quite a bit more than that.* I’ll let you know.
