My traffic actually jumped by about 10 to 227 visitors on Friday. And what's funny about that is 27 is my favorite number and 227 was my dorm room number in college! :lol: But Saturday I wasn't so lucky. Traffic slumped a bit...and there was nothing I could do about it. I was babysitting for a friend all day and evening so I had no time to post anything. Oh well. Anyway, I wanted to wish everyone here who comments the best of luck and success with their blogs! :razz: Shine on, Aaron Luckily no. My traffic actually jumped by about 10 to 227 visitors on Friday.

Historically, the best traffic days are Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday (according to most sources)...though some do list Saturday as a high traffic day as well. As for me, there's no hard and fast rule other my posting levels. My traffic is the same on all days of the week. The only thing that seems to affects it is my posting frequency.

Regularly visit other blogs and engage in the discussions. People also mention forums too. This has helped my traffic stay at a fairly consistent level, but as always I'm looking for MORE!
