RE: Some Blogs by Blue Dalek

Blue Dalek asked me to critique his work. There is more than one blog under this name. I will try to comment as much as possible about several of his blogs.

Meanwhile why don't you go to his profile? You can give an opinion yourself in the comment section here.

There are four blogs listed in his profile. They are:

Doctor Whoniverse
UNIT ONLINE
Ye Old Curiousity Shop
Doctor Whoniverse

These sites download fast. This is great! Too long a time to download and you lose visitors.

 They are also imaginatively designed. People like pretty sites so long as they do not take a long time to download.

There is one glaring problem. The URLs do not match the titles as a general rule. Take for instance Doctor Whoniverse. The URL is:http://bluedalekcrack.blogspot.com/. An example of a URL that can be used for this website could be Doctor Whoinverse.blogspot.com or Dr. Whoinverse.blogspot.com  Then there UNIT ONLINE is with the URl: http://fightingaliens.blogspot.com/. How about the URL: http://unitonline.blogspot.com? Get the idea?This makes it easier for the surfer to find the site if URL and title of site match somewhat.. Also makes it easier to remember this particular location. This method of URL and blog naming links both together and makes an impression on the surfers. This way there is a better chance of them coming back again and again.


It is a simple matter to change the URls of these sites. No need to delete and change the whole site. Just change the URL.

Doctor Whoniverse is unfinished. Nice start but unfinished is libel to scare off visitors. So unfinished is a big no, no. Put something up if just an introduction. This is much better than just unfinished.


Also ask for comments in the comment section. Encourage some interaction from the public. This will bring them back.


http://www.wikihow.com/Improve-Search-Engine-Ranking. The afore mentioned link may help you with Search Engine-Ranking. Never pay for this. You can do it yourself.


You might search on the Internet on how to encourage public interaction with your websites. Here is what I found:
Put in a rating system (can be found in the gadgets section for blogger)
Add some videos
Add puzzle's and games.
Encourage people to make comments in the comment section. 
The above are just suggestions on how to enrich your site.


Blue Dalek is off to a good start with his blogs. The blogs just need a little fine tuning and some polishing.


All websites and blogs should add new material from time to time, too. This keeps people coming back and adds interest. 


Remember you can also monetize your site if you so wish. Google Adsense and Amazon are available through blogger. Guess what they really work! (Just a suggestion)

RE: Another Sunday And Day Light Savings Time.

Did everyone in USA remember to reset their clock. I didn't. That made me an hour late for everything. Oh well. I never did see the reasoning behind this. It is such a bother. Why not just start the day sooner and then later. This resetting of the clock for daylight savings time makes no sense to me.

My leg is slowly healing. My appreciation for any positive prayers.

I have been wondering if there is a limit to how many free blogs we can put on blogger. Does anyone out there know? I guess I should look it up.

My experiment with Google Adsense is working out pretty good. Take a look at the ads. I am thinking of adding a meditation link to one of my sites. It will come with words, music etc.

Hey if you would like to publish music and other appropriate web site material go to http://webspeak.bravehost.com. Make it for GP audience please as this is a family site. WebSpeak Ezine is a good place to try out your product and also to have a leader into your own site.
