Something else to try in 2009 :) I have meant to use Analytics and the WP Stats to target posts on my other blogs in the past but to be honest I’ve never actually done that.

I have very mixed feelings on wither or not I write for myself or not. If I didn't blog, then I think I'd be letting all kinds of things go to waste at the back of my mind, whereas blogging then I can share my ideas with people and hopefully inspire and help them. I am a bit of a stat whore though. I do check Google Analytics every few days, and I am planning to write more gaming articles based on the ones that have been popular. Part of that is so I can hopefully get people coming to the site regularly and feeding back on my other content, but I wouldn't ever try and custom all my content just to be hit friendly (that's just bad blogging...). Heck, I don't even customise my post titles to be SEO'd. Anyway, consider yourself to have won a watch with this one. Interesting and thought provoking article :p <abbr><em><abbr><em>Hammers last blog post..<a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/GamesOfState/~3/497220025/">Onwards to 2009</a></em></abbr></abbr></em> “I don’t write for anyone but myself but I will admit to being a stat junkie but that’s more down to my years of playing computer games and having to get a higher points total than your mate.
