Too Busy to Blog
I’ve had a few emails asking why i haven’t blogged in a while. After I spent most of the month of Febuary snowboarding… I got down and worked a bit. I have to keep growing my company (Site Sift Media, Inc.) sales. Last year’s numbers are going to be hard to beat… although we are up 12% over the same period from last year.
We own 175+ websites but have three large sites we focus on each in a different industry; Internet Marketing, Real Estate and Entertainment. All three do very well but there is plenty of potential for improvement. The past three weeks has been all about the *power three* as I like to call it.
The Internet Marketing site has increased it’s rankings in the search engines and we have expanded our PPC campaigns. Traffic is up and seems to be increasing every month. I have a full time editor in place that handles the content and adding additional pages to that site.
The Entertainment site has been off the hook. It seems like every day there is something new that POPS up with this site. Traffic has been crazy… some days we bring in more that 35,000 visitors and 300,000 page views…. yes DAILY. With that kind of traffic comes challenges so this site has been keeping us real busy.
Our real estate site is still a baby in the Internet world. It’s barely over a year old but has a huge presence on the Internet. In one search engine we have over 300,000 pages index and traffic seems to grow about 15% each month with the exception of this month where we are already at 38% increase over last month with 7 days left to go. We are still just tapping the surface on how to monetize this site… even though it’s been profitable for some time now.
So what happens to my other 172 sites or so when we are focusing on the main three??? Well… I have a small team here at Site Sift Media, Inc. that handles programming, writing, editing, accounting, moderation, marketing and search engine optimization.
Over the next few weeks I will have more time for blogging… so.
