5 years of blogging-part 1

As I mentioned a few days ago, I'm short on 5 years of blogging, which still amazes me when I think of it. There are now many people who have been blogging for five or more years, so that it is not unusual, but it is longer than I expected to be running this blog. The official date 30 May 2010, which is exactly five years after my first post. In preparation for this anniversary, I'm going to run in General a retrospective series on this blog, blogging, AdSense, search engine optimization, Internet marketing, and other related topics — what comes to mind, I think, as I peruse five years worth of posts.
Let's start with a few stats. Apart from this post, I 1048 posts, which comes out to about 210 entries per year, or just under 18 posts per month.Oddly enough, that's pretty close to the 20 or so working days in a month Of my output is. fallen very noticeable in the past year or so, mind you, but for a while I was pretty much post something once or twice per day.
Comments … There are more than 3000 approved comments.I currently have 2400 in anticipation of the comments, but most of these are spam (both the total spam, but also a lot of "I like your site!" and "Keep up the good work!" and "Nice article!" Type comments) and I've gotten into the habit of blowing away the whole pool in anticipation of response when it is too large to navigate ...Many commenters appear lately because the blog near the top of the list of "dofollow" blogs and everyone is trying to connect to get a nice juicy from a PR4 page back to their site. Too bad I moderate all comments ... When you have nothing worth to say don't need, don't bother to comment!
I can't say that this blog ranks high for many keywords in Google. For "adsense", it is around # 70.Even though I have a reasonable number of inbound links (about 50,000 according to Yahoo!), only about half of the pages on this site are actually in the Google index and just 400 or so of them displayed when you create a query "site: memwg.com".There are several reasons for this. A is that the site was hacked numerous times — I took a single injection code yesterday that was much left for popular medicines in my pages is also lost link speed-the speed at which incoming links are done — because I very much lately haven't updated.And I have a bunch of deep links in the site, which is another problem – most of the links are targeted at the root of the domain.
Anyway, in part 2 we actually start the retrospective by watching 5 things I wish I made different from the beginning.
