I just had another personal meltdown (lol) and i thought i'd give away a lil' secret of mine:

How to get at least 2k hits per day in a matter of minutes.

"Can't be done", i hear you say.. well, check this out!


create a twitter account
set up a wordpress (2.5.1 works best) blog on a generic domain.
install "wp autoblog" or "wp-o-matic".
install twitter poster ( WordPress › Twitter Poster WordPress Plugins )

Now, (do this each day, takes about 10 minutes) have a look at search.twitter.com and note down the hot trends..

Head over to Google's hot trends and note down their hot trends.

Nnoooow, go to the google blogsearch, perform a search for those trending topics and get the RSS feed of the search results.. copy the rss feed's url and insert it into your blogs wp-autoblog feature.

WHAT THIS WILL DO:


your blog will aggregate the hottest trends
your blog will auto twitter the aggregated headlines with a link to your blog
people search on the twitter realtime search, find your tweet and click through to your blog
you get mad traffic

I started this as an experiment three weeks ago and i get a constant 5k unique hits per day, according to awstats.

Why am i sharing this?! Dunno, perhaps i'm just stupid (Not really, i have other sources of income - i just thought it was time to share some stuff).
