Coding Horror, A simple Blog
It's Coding Horror. Jeff Atwood seems to be the author, is just writing for fun but good articles.
The traffic is returning, but most of it from Google. Comments? Just he posts a topic and 100 comments in less than 10 hours! Terrible!
But I see that he have a bug on the comment moderation or the Spam protection is not working, because it always asks me to write the same word! Really strange.
So the comments may be spam?
The blog is cool and I advice you to read and keep in track of its posts.
Generally or what should be, it would talk about Dot Net Technology, it's an old blog and that may be the reason of his popularity.
But I think it's popular because of the good posts that he's writing.
Whatever! It talks about computers in general but some time about Open Source and they are interesting.
What Good on this blog?
No ad, no links, no photos, no.. no.. Really a very simple stupid template like this one.
White and black colours only! That's better for eyes!
It's perhaps that template that makes visitors read, because I see that the commentators are quite interested on the content of each article!
Will my readers do the same?
View my experience; I see that Google traffic is bad traffic! They don't read well! Although Google still the primary source of traffic for all blogs and websites (generally)
But if you have a web site for Dot Net, you can include your tutorial on other website or Dot Net portal. Like I'm doing for The Dot Net Source.
MSDN forums traffic (other said from Microsoft) is a good traffic that read and search. The difference is obvious!
1 visitor have 1.6 page views from Google but from Microsoft will have 4.7 page views. Static from the Dot Net source blog shows!
Will my blog become like Coding Horror?
Yes but I think I have to wait 4 years to have the same traffic! He waited!
Good luck for all Bloggers!
