A Little Blog Redesign…
I updated the theme for my blog today. I also messed everything up as a result and I had to recreate a lot of things all over again. Still, I think the end result is worthwhile and I am happy with the new layout and theme. I’ve added two new sidebar sections - Most Read Posts, and Favorite Posts. The titles speak for themselves and I hope they both generate a few more reads from visitors.
The other thing I have done is add a few ad related parts to the blog. I am hoping that now my daily traffic is increasing, I will be able to benefit from a little ad supported revenue. If it works - good, if not - then it will just be an experiment that I have tried. Basically I am using Google Adsense and also a link to 1&1.com, my web hosting provider. I am also looking into adding textual based advertising links. We’ll just have to see how that works out.
Traffic is something that most bloggers obviously think about from time to time. I write my blog for fun, but I also have hopes for it to be read by thousands of people out there. My viewership is slowly increasing and I’m just waiting for that one post that will set me apart from the crowd. Who knows, maybe one day soon.
In the meantime I’ll just continue doing what I know, writing and making a few cosmetic changes from time to time…
