(Without getting into any detail on your site)
My blog involves a search for a killer. I need the blog "out there". The main search engines have it. I have it in forums on Topix, and the local paper where the killing took place. Is there any other forums like Topix on the internet?
You can do a search for "Topix" on Google, and below it there's a link that says "similar". Clicking it may take you to some other sites like you're looking for.
You're also welcome to post the details here if you want. Aside from our visitors, the search engines spider us hourly. Never know, it could help.

Ok I'm not sure what your talking about but I'm kinda have a idea on the subject. Dogg is right we do have search spiders all over the site all day long. Another large blog site(s) are blogspot and Blogger
I hope all is well with you and the family - your in my prayers (always).
It's not a blog that I have, but my website... I mean, I've submitted to google, promoted shamelessly here... I just dunno what it takes to get hits in this interweb.

It's definitely eat
out there as far as getting traffic.
I could get into a whole deep discussion on who I blame for it, namely porn and affiliate programs (both straight and adult), but that's a topic left for another thread sometime,
Thanks for the replies. I was looking for a site like Topix, and did click "similar" but didn.t really find anything like Topix. I have first page on Google and MSN, so placement is good there, just looking for other forums to post it in.
Hugs to smartmom!
smartmom I might email it to you just so you can see the subject. Just don,t post it here., so its not traced to here.
*update* was going to email...lost your addy
thank you,
Stormchaser
smartmom have you had a chance to read it yet?
I did read it over. I didn't post it here because you asked that it not be. I'm not really sure what else you can do besides what you have done (and its wonderful) that can be done. Let me think some more about it
smartmom..... I figured it best not to post it here, in case there is any negative brought on by my writings in it. I wouldn,t want any negative brought to this site. Thanks for any help. Now if you trust others in your circle, feel free to send them the link, with the understanding it can be posted elsewhere in blogs, forums, or message boards, without being linked to this site.
thank you,

Ok I will. I will say it was well written and I don't see how it would bring on any negative feedback. Its full of heart and emotion - you did a great job stormchaser.
The only think I could say is go on sites and find anyway to post links to the blog. That way the blog gets more traffic. You can go on sites like yahoo answers and find some question. How about also "Digg" if you want I can "digg" it for you and that will generate some traffic to it. I would say anyway possible you can do links to the blog to get attention is the way to go. I'm a member of diggs so if you want me to digg it I will just say the word
Something else to do - make a myspace and a facebook up for the subject and blog there. Since your looking to really target a certain area you can also do a search on the networks for that area. For myspace all you have to do is search up top the area and state. Here is a example (I used Orlando, FL but you get the idea). OK search up top but drop down the menu and choose "myspace"
Once you hit search its going to bring up those in that area:
You can see there is alot. Now simply start dropping some lines to the ppl. Do a "form" type letter and point to the blog. That will get ppl talking and ppl looking at is and they will be in your targeted area.
For facebook, its the same basic thing. Search the area up top
Once you hit search you can they narrow it down for those in the area:
That is the only other thing I can think of. Because more then just traffic I think you are looking for traffic to the blog from a certain area. This way you are promoting your blog to those in the area. Its may just help. Now mind you that the myspace and facebook might get hit with spamming and they might cancel it out but its worth a shot as long as it works. FYI I know I shared my log in for my one profile on myspace for you to use - don't use that profile for this as I dont want that one shut down
I will forward this to a few ppl to look out - don't worry I wont forward the more personal stuff such as your email or your name just the URL. Thought are with you stormchaser - your a great guy with a huge heart
Howdy Stormchaser!
Is it that you want it to show up better in search results? Or do you just want it in more things like Topix?
