Will You Help Me?
Hi,
Can you help me?
This blog has been around for about 3 months, in that time I’ve slowly increased my visitor count from a few dozen to over 300 per day. I would love to get your feedback!
What do you like about the blog? What do you hate? What could I be doing better? What am I doing right?
Do you subscribe to my blog alerts service? If not - can I ask you why?
Do you subscribe to the full RSS feed through FeedBurner? If not - can I ask you why?
If you like what you see, would you consider subscribing to my blog alerts service? I don’t spam, and only send out a blog update alert when I post something that would be of interest and I normally post 2 times per day. Or how about subscribing to my full RSS feed through FeedBurner?
I’d love to hear from you!

Hi Luke,
First off - THANK YOU for the e-mail. I don’t know why SK2 decided to throw so many of your posts (and others) into the spam folder! I can’t explain it. But I’ve gone through and fixed that…
I’ve also fixed the problem with duplicated posts. There seems to be a bug with the DIGG plug-in that I’m using. It’s gone!
I think you are 100% correct with running multiple blogs. I’m in the process of setting up http://www.mohamedbhimji.com so will transfer some of the posts there that don’t have anything to to with Internet Business or Making Money Online.
Thanks Luke - I really appreciate the feedback!
Regards,
Mohamed
You are doing a decent job with the blog. One thing i notice while posting this comment
The correct verb is Required not require…
I am not very picky but this was very obvious.
Ok writing the same comment twice, but for some reason your system marked my comment as spam.
You are doing a good job with your blog. I saw one error with your comment box
the correct verb is *Required … I am not very picky but that was obvious.
Definately take care of that spam flagging thing you have on this blog because that will send alot of comments like mine to spam box.
Good deal! Glad our posts are showing up now. Spam management can be tricky, but is essential. You may want to delete these fake trackbacks and ban their sources before they get out of hand.
Speaking of Digg, it seems like Digg is better suited for certain posts than others. You may want to just place the button on especially Diggable ones (i.e when they happen to fall into one of the main Digg categories, and are extremely well written).
Hi Syed,
Thanks - fingers going faster than the brain. I will go back and make that change… I’ve also set SK2 to “lovey dovey” and blacklisted several of the comment/trackback spammers. Hopefully it keeps them out! 
Take care!
Mohamed
One thing that is bugging me about your site is that every time I look at an article, it shows the same article twice. Looks like a problem in your theme.
It seems like you are maybe blogging too frequently. Perhaps if you were to create multiple blogs and create posts within each one on a daily basis, it would be more effective. You might be able to get 300 subscribers for each one.
Another thing is maybe a forum would be helpful in building your community. It gives a chance for people to put their ideas a place where they will remain for a long time.
I am not subscribed to RSS because I don’t have that set up for Firefox yet, but I intend to.
Good luck building your traffic!
