Helping Hands are Priceless

by trigatch4 on March 30th, 2007

So for the past couple weeks I’ve been planning and plotting the future of my “location based domain”, which I spoke about last week.  I hit numerous snags in the road – first with layout and design, then with how to manage the content within pages, posts and categories and most recently, with how to [...]

Under The Weather

by trigatch4 on March 28th, 2007

I’ve been sick the past several days and it’s made life all the more difficult.  I’ve fallen behind at “work” work and haven’t been able to get any of “this” work done, either.  Supposedly sleep is the best remedy so I slept all day, only to be awake all throughout the night with a killer [...]

Slight Theme Update

by trigatch4 on March 26th, 2007

I was getting tired of this blog’s “plain jane” look and made a few very small adjustments to give it some color and life.  The headings are now bold, links within the content are orangish, the nav bar to the right is colored light green with a dark green trim,  and text in the nav [...]

Wordpress: Post Timestamp Feature

by trigatch4 on March 25th, 2007

It seems like half of this blog is dedicated to my complaints concerning my own lack of organization and focus while I spread myself too thin.  With 4 forums and 8 blogs I’ve now restricted myself to “focusing” on, it seems I’ve still bitten off more than I can chew.  Why?  Well because when I [...]

Location Based Websites

by trigatch4 on March 23rd, 2007

This weekend I will be filling in the content of a location based website that I’ve basically finished the Wordpress “skeleton” for.  It is essentially a “city” guide with a business directory and articles about things to do, places to see, places to stay and all that great stuff.
It’ll be a ton of “secretarial” work [...]

Auction Ads Test is a Dud

by trigatch4 on March 21st, 2007

This week was pretty evident of how Auction Ads performed for me:

 3470 impressions
10 clicks
0 dollars

I replaced the AuctionAds panel, which was on ChefClub.net, with the current Blockbuster deal that pays out $40 via MaxBounty.  Now, you would think that cooking related items such as pots and pans would fare well on a Cooking Forum… right?  [...]

Never Wake Up Tired Again

by trigatch4 on March 20th, 2007

I hate waking up in the morning. Usually my alarm clock goes off, I’m absolutely exhausted, I slam it off and try to sleep for 5 more minutes. But, I sleep for 45 more minutes and I’m late to wherever I need to be (usually work). Yet on some days I’ll wake [...]

Things Shaping Up

by trigatch4 on March 15th, 2007

While I haven’t experienced a surge in revenue, I believe things are starting to shape up.  I’ve finally got a basket of sites that I’m dedicated to working on and nurturing through development.  They consist of 4 forums, 8 blogs and a handful of other mini-sites that I will be working with on a more [...]

Ad implementation is virtually a Google Adsense clone: log in, name your [...]

Digg Down – OverDugg, Redesign or Conspiracy?

by trigatch4 on March 2nd, 2007

From about 12 noon on March 2nd through 5pm, the popular social bookmarking site Digg.com was “out of service”.  The following page appeared in it’s place (hyperlinks at bottom of page):
 

 
Digg recieves an inexorbitant amount of traffic each day and sites making it Digg’s front page can experience hundreds of hits each second!  While they [...]
