Alexa sucks balls..... Hmm, is that defamatory or just my honest opinion?...... anyone?...... Blogger?..... Mrs. (carrot up her ass) Strauss?
On the upside.....although Alexa seems to be a totally flawed system for website rankings, at least the world has been interested in my website more than ever before last week. As you can all probably imagine, it's totally annoying for me to see that there has been a lot of interest in my site, yet not a great deal of additions to the stories.......I'm still waiting........I do think that one of these days this thing will take off. It's only been online just over 2 months now, the press still have an interest, I'm still finding new ways to advertise and reach new people, and the website is still accumulating a good percentage of its visitors as bookmarkers. So these facts all bode well for a potential flow of words in the future.
My ebay auctions selling 50 words to the Word Story (follow this link to check them out) still haven't been viewed by a great number of people yet, and as such there hasn't been a great deal of bidding yet (in fact no bidding). Nevertheless, it is still a good way to get the message out there and there is still 6 days or so left.

I don't understand this program. Once upon a time I briefly made it into the top 100,000. This was near the beginning of this website's existence. Now, I have just had the busiest week this website has ever had (12,000 hits), followed by the second biggest day of hits yesterday (4,500 hits). Yet despite this Alexa seems to have ignored these figures and is not updating my status at all. It looks as though the hits are disappearing into nothing, but I have really just had my busiest week ever. It's totally retarded.
