Blog crimes: No post, No update, Offline webpage!
Being a blogger for a so-so number of years already, I consider non-posting or not updating a blog a crime. I’m guilty of this. There are times when I just run of things to say, or I’m too caught up in other pressing matters. Owning a website is a responsibility. You have have a responsibility to keep your readers posted and entertained. I have this responsibility!
An offline blog in itself is a crime as well. It’s even worse than not updating a blog at all. Why? Because one, the viewer gets an error; two, you lose revenue; three, the viewer moves on to other websites and will not share the content you have posted with his/her friends. See? That’s a freaking lot of traffic and potential revenue you’ve lost. You know what they say, website traffic translates into potential revenue!
Several months ago, this website went offline due to dumb, unavoidable circumstances. That time, this blog had a readership of 400+ readers through feed. Now if you notice the feed reader counters at the right side, there are only 2 readers left. Crapness~ But it can’t be helped. There are some dumbass people out there who do not care about what happens to someone’s domain. You know who this person is? Clue: he’s a member of the PinoyBlogosphere mailing list. 
Shari noes~
Hemingways, I still haven’t received any pics for Project Makyu. I have 80+ pictures more to post. I think I’m gonna need a helping hand on posting the pics, and overall promotion and website administration. Any volunteers?
A question to all bloggers who have already tried BTP: Is it possible to hold all payments until you get to a certain amount (say $500)?

Keysi's a criminal, Keysi's a criminal! :D
I don't know if it's making a difference on my site. Maybe if you clickity-click, maybe, maybe it will make a difference. Haha.
Is your main feed redirected to Feedburner? Kasi as far as I know, iba yung naka-subscribe sa http://keysinunez.com/feed/ sa http://feeds.feedburner.com/keysi eh. Feedburner tracks only the latter. You can install this plugin, or edit your original feed URL. Ewan ko lang ha...Pero naisip ko, wow, 400 readers! Sikaaaat! Sana bumalik na yung readers mo, tapos i-plug mo ako ng i-plug, lol.
At hands-off ako sa issue na yun, yung ano na yun, basta yun na yun, hehe! ;)
Anyway...I've already taken a photo of myself with the makyu post. Kaso I'm still tamad to upload it eh, tutal marami ka pa namang di pa naa-upload. May bayad ba pag volunteer? LOL! :D

I never got around to knowing what to do with the hosts but I guess you need to update to generate traffic right? hmm.. must get around to putting up a host or something and yeah, no update for like, 3 days, is a crime. *sniff*

Steel: Don't worry, we're all guilty somehow. :lol: Xtina: Yep. There are lots of affordable hosting plans out there, yeah? Or you could have someone host you, like a subdomain or something. :D
