This blog, my bad side, receives an average of 70-100 visits per day. The aim of these posts is to intrigue visitors with brief and, hopefully, insightful reflections on writing and life – and throw in the odd image. All of that said, I am aware of what many virtual visitors are really looking for, and I even occasionally deliver on that. My post on Jade Elizabeth, of Bachelor/Playboy fame, underlines the parameters of this virtual world. From January 29 through February 17, the blog maintained its normal humble traffic, and then suddenly tripled in one day and triple again the next, to only dwindle down again a week later. Whether any of this surge of visitors stopped to read my “insights” is dubious at best.
The moral of the story – sex sells.
How many, if any, bothered to experience your “insights” or were disappointed and immediately moved on? Let me guess…
I do occasionally disappoint. This is true.
