Tags

I have been thinking about this for a while now and have been wanting to write a blog post about the "tags" that you are allowed to put at the end of every blog.  These tags are supposed to pertain to your blog, like the topic of it and any related key words.  You are allowed to have 20 words to use as tags so you have to choose those words wisely.  Lately I have been guilty of putting words in this section that do not pertain to my blog at all due to seeing that certain words will bring traffic to the blog.  I try to monitor my stats as much as possible and see where my traffic is coming from, why they are coming and what tags brought them to my site.  I have noticed that the words face and game will usually bring some people to the site since they seem to be popular search words.  But lately I have been thinking of new words to put in that could maximize my traffic.  Now, I know that this in its own way is cheating, but isn't the point of a blog to have people view it.  I mean we are sometimes writing for ourselves but why would we put our thoughts and Ideas on the Internet if we did not want someone to view them, right?

Another reason why I try to maximize my traffic is to get my "Monetize" option open, I would someday like this blog or any other site I own to produce some sort of profit.  If not for all of my everyday bills and life then maybe just a little extra spending money.  It would be nice to say I have a site that produces some sort of profit, extra money is always a good thing.  Actually the dream is to make a site that gets as big as the Penny Arcade site, that is the dream and the goal I am always reaching for.  Someday maybe I will get there, until then, I will just keep trying.

Any thoughts to this topic?  Chime in with a comment at the bottom of this blog or if you have any advice then chime in as well.  Later.

Skyrim and Soccer

It's a weird mix and I realize that but that is kind of how my day went.  I got home from work and played a little bit of Skyrim while my 6 month old was swinging in his little baby swing.  It was nice...

NOW MY OPINION ON SKYRIM!!!!!!!!!!!(place explosion after the all caps)

Compared to its predecessor The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion Skyrim is a much much(sooo much) better game in every aspect that you can compare it to.  Graphics(check), sound(check), fighting(check), inner game mechanics(check) and fap material(check?).  I know that I haven't gotten a whole lot of time with it due to being a dad and doing the whole daddy thing along with time for work and other activities but what time I have had I have been enjoying the hell out of the game.  It's just fun and still retains a level of serious-ness that makes you want to know what happens next, and then if you want you can be all like, "F you story line, I'm just going to go out and explore for no apparent reason!"  Its fantastical, whimsical and some would even say orgasmicle.  This is a game that I think almost everyone can get into, it's not as nerdy and complex as the last game and its way more user friendly with much better explanations about how the world works and the multiple crafting systems.  I know in my heart of hearts that I will be playing this game for months to come, maybe even years, who knows, only time will tell.

Next on the agenda.

I went to a pick up soccer game tonight at a local indoor roller hockey arena that we have near where I live, I have not played soccer in ages but it was still a blast.  Actually at one point my legs gave out on me which was a first for me, very weird feeling to be honest.  It was like someone was putting more and more weights on my legs with each step that I took until I fell to my knees which I imagine looked pretty funny for the people who were watching.  After that I went back to playing goalie which to be honest, I was kicking ass in and i even got a compliment which was a nice little treat.  In the end I had a blast and will be going back every Monday night, in fact they are going to do a league which I will most likely be joining with a buddy of mine so I have that to look forward to.  EXCITING!!!!!!!!!!!

That's kind of my day in a nut shell, until next time have a good one.
