A Brazilian journalist contacted me this morning about my Beijing Olympic site. I answered a few questions by email and he followed up with a phone call. It’s exciting to finally have people interested in the site and getting different emails from people. It was a pretty long wait, but I am starting to feel [...]

It has only taken three years, but I am finally getting some love from Google with my Beijing Olympic site. Perhaps it is too early to mention this, but I couldn’t help writing about it. Search engine traffic has jumped from 10 to over 70 per cent overnight. It’s weird because I have ranked well [...]

I am sometimes envious of people who have just one big website which they focus on. I can see the advantages of having just one thing to concentrate on. The problem I have is that I am always thinking of new ideas and always thinking the next site I develop is going to be “the [...]

The time has gone incredibly fast here and I will be jetting back to Australia in just over a week. I remember it was just a few weeks ago when I was suffering from the cold and feeling like I couldn’t wait to get back to Australia quick enough. I haven’t been able to do [...]
