After the third week of doing the 31 Days to Build a better blog, I’m seeing the traffic and participation on my blog increasing by leaps and bounds. This last week, the traffic increase was due primarily to being featured in the Rails Envy Podcast. The idea to email Gregg Pollack about my post 9 Ways to Use Rails Metal came from step 3 in the 31 days.
You can see from the google analytics I’ve included in this post that Wednesday and Thursday I saw significant traffic. About half of that was from Rails Envy.
Traffic from Week 3 - 31 Days to Build a Better Blog
Overall, I’m extremely pleased that this system has helped so many people find what I’m offering. I’m also excited that it appears to help some people with their Ruby on Rails applications. It’s encouraging me to think about other ways I can contribute to the community. You’ll probably see posts in the upcoming weeks regarding some of the things I’ll be doing to chip in and help a few more people with Ruby on Rails.
