It's amazing and almost hard to believe how much influence those "social networking" sites can have, and how much draw one person's positive comment about a site can produce. Thanks for the info!

I know SEO is the hype, but it's last on my list. I do the basics: meta keywords, internal links, seo-friendly images and so on. I figure Google with it's $$$ has the smartest engineers whose primary job is to match search terms to relevant content. A great SEO strategy may get you traffic; it's no good if they only stay for a few seconds. Content is King, Queen and the joker. I go for viral <i><b>each</b></i> time, or keep quiet. Social media is great; Stumbleupon has been kind to me, and off-line avenues work well: flyers, meetings, and handing out business cards at the local pub. Great list.

I never intended my <a href="http://www.jackhumphrey.com/fridaytrafficreport/list-of-29-free-video-sharing-sites/" rel="nofollow">top 50 video sites</a> post to get so high in the rankings (for awhile it was #1 and the traffic to that post alone for "video sites" was amazing). But here's the way to look at it - You have to post fregularly for your readers anyway. Keeping an eye on good, basic SEO while doing it will produce those winners as you fulfill your "contract" with your readership to produce what they like. This way you don't feel bad about posts that don't make it in the engines because they have at lease that one other purpose. @Kelly – I know what you mean. it does become a hit or miss kind of thing.

(Meaning I didn't really expect it) I didn't set out to create a page that would get massive traffic, it just happened. To be honest, I struggle in trying to duplicate the process. (Create another page like it) So I end up with a blog with hundreds of posts that get so so traffic and three or four posts that go hog wild. I would sure like to make that 30 or 40 posts!
