You're bad for me, Steve MacLellan....

In Response To: Re: What I've Learned About Blogging.... (Steve MacLellan)

Every time you open your mouth, I learn something new, and my brain is already dangerously overtaxed.

First, thank you SO much for your encouraging post! I had no intention of quitting (yet), but after reading what you had to say, I am now committed to at least one year.

======================
What I learned:
======================

I didn't know I could type "site:" into a Google search to find all the links for that site. Whoa doggy!! All my posts are indexed too!!

Thank you!!

=========================
What I need to know:
=========================

1.

site:friendsinbusiness.blogspot.com

How come so many of my listings say nothing? What am I doing wrong?? I can't see any obvious difference between the listings that do show the first couple of lines and the ones that don't, but the ones that don't are obviously worthless.

2.

site:rehab-america.blogspot.com

Zippy, Skippy.

Funny. I paid little attention to keywords on MaaMaw's Morsels, but this one is packed with them. It's not there!! It's not anywhere!! Even when I feed in an exact phrase from my blog description -- nothing!!

Could it be it's just too soon? I started it February 28.

I've been in the midst of a personal crisis and haven't posted since Tuesday. Does it completely fall off the radar with three days of neglect?

===============================
While we're NOT on the subject:
===============================

You said you had 16,000 *visits* -- and after seven years, I *still* don't understand my stats. My website uses "wusage" for stats.

Picking a random month, it says the following:

Overall accesses 598,886.
(Means absolutely nothing, right? Is this the one that counts each graphic as another access, etc.??)

The web site received 58,996 visits.
(I generally ignore this since it counts my own bzillion visits, all the repeat visits to the board, etc., right??)

Visitors came from 14,981 distinct Internet addresses.
(If somebody needs to know my traffic -- i.e., to get approved for an affiliate program -- this is the one I use. Is that right?)

Thank you so much, as always!!

Luv,

MaaMaw

NOTICE TO SCUMBEEZLES
(you know who you are... you scream "Foul!" when the truth comes out)
        PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT.  It has been done before, but never successfully.  In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
        If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace.
        NEWS FLASH:  I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday.  I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish.  I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?).  I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" 
        Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures.

        Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.  We are not responsible or liable for any claim arising from the content of any such discussions or postings or for any error, defamation, libel, slander, omission, falsehood, obscenity, pornography, profanity, danger, or inaccuracy contained in any information contained within such locations on the Site.
        You are prohibited from posting or transmitting any unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, scandalous, inflammatory, pornographic, or profane materials or any material that could constitute or encourage conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any law.  You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual.  We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials.
        By posting messages and/or content on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, you give permission for Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications to display, distribute and use the posting and content for publication, advertising, promotion, excerption or example. You grant Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications complete, perpetual, but non-exclusive rights to use, archive, reproduce, adapt, modify, distribute, sub-license, repurpose, rework, compile, or offer for sale or resale the messages, postings or content appearing on this site in whole or in part, throughout the world and universe, on a royalty-free basis without remuneration.  If you cannot accept or agree with the terms of service for this website and discussion board, you are advised not to post on this board.
        In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact.
        And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!).
