The Blog is/WAS broken!
Those of you who visit my blog regularly know that community and traffic has been building at a slow and steady pace since I started posting a few months back. All that changed with the "What's wrong with our kids" essay and the one that followed.
Traffic jumped more than tenfold overnight, from a few hundred page views per day to three thousand.
And what, you may ask, was the result??
Google "locked" the blog, as a possible SPAM BLOG. From Thursday till yesterday, I was locked out of posting, though some comments still got through. Yesterday, the "Madness" post that I'd written went up, but Google had blocked comments on that.
I had been wondering why no one had commented, and I finally figured it out. So now, it should all be fixed. Everyone is once again free to comment away.
Now, I just have to get the Google Analytics to work. For those of you who have not tried that - it's a really cool accessory that gives you a world map showing where blog visitors come from and more. Mine quit working when the blog was unlocked.
