FAQ: What are the most visited pages on this website and how many visits do they get?

Several years ago, I wrote an article on how to write different types of magic uses, or rather how I personally write various types of magic users within the context of my Quaraun books. Today that page is one of my top ten most visited articles. It gets 50 to 500 views/reads/hits/visits per day depending on the time of the years and has had over 200k visits total since it was published.

Amphibious Aliens: Debunking The Atwater Family's Alien Abduction Hoax with more then 30MILLION reads since 2007 and The GoldenEagle: Debunking Stephen King's World's Most Haunted Car Hoax with over tenMILLION reads since 2007 still rank as the two most visited articles on my website, but, neither of those are writing related.

Writing Medieval Servants is my most visited writing related article with over 7MILLION reads.

This website was started in 1996 and has 1 to 3 new articles (all written by me, I am the only writer on this site) published almost daily. In 2017 we crossed ten thousand articles published. As of 2023, EACH article gets MINIMUM 10 to 70 reads PER DAY, with the high traffic articles getting 500+ reads per day.

And since December 2019, my website now gets three hundred thousand to 7 million reads per month - well over ONE HUNDRED MILLION PAGE READS PER YEAR, making it not only the single most trafficked site in the State of Maine, but also one of the most visited websites in ALL OF NEW ENGLAND!

{{{HUGS}}} Thank you to all my readers for making this possible!

"Would You Take Money From a Company You Don’t Know?

I’m curious about something…

I've just been contacted by someone whose trying to get two text links on my hair loss treatment homepage for a client: a hair transplant company. But, despite asking, they won't reveal the company name. So, my gut feeling is to turn it down.

But this leads to a couple of questions:

1. Has anyone else been contacted in this way where, bizarrely, the client name is not revealed?

2. Obviously link building is important as long as it's of value to the visitor. But, Penguin has hammered loads of sites (including mine) that have poor/unnatural links. So, are people still building links like this in return for payment? And if so…

3. I was offered $50 for 3 months for both links. So is this the sort of figure people are accepting?"

I actually have a policy of never placing any affiliate ads on my site, unless it's a company I know and have used. If I have placed the product banner/link myself (not an ad that Google randomly displays), you will also see me mentioning the company and/or it's product over the course of my regular conversation. For example, for the past 3 years my readers have seen/heard/read me saying how much I love Hootsuite. I use Hootsuite every day, many times every day. I chatter about it constantly and often mention it in articles I write. Than after 3 years of talking about how great they are, I found out they had an affiliate program and I figured, heck, I talk about their app all the time, I might as well start linking to their affiliate program and get paid for all this promotion I'm doing of them, and thus as of September 2013, not only do you still see me telling you how great Hootsuite is, you also see me displaying a banner advertising thier product. You can see this banner displayed at the bottom of EVERY SINGLE PAGE on my website, for the simple fact I think their service is great and because I've used it daily for many years now and I mention them so often in dozens, perhaps hundreds of pages on my sites, so I decided it only fair that I put their banner on every page.

On the other hand there are sites like Amazon.com. I love Amazon.com, I shop there every week and have done so since 2004. I used to get paid by them, years ago before the Nexus Law was passed. But I live in Maine, which means that as of October 6, 2013, I am no longer eligible to receive commission from their affiliate program, due to the Nexus Law, but that doesn't stop me from linking to their products even though I'm no longer getting paid to do so. Why? Because, like Hootsuite, I love their company enough to be linking to it whether I get paid or not.

As a general rule, I try to match banners/links to the page topic, for example on several of my pirate topic pages you will see I have placed banners for various pirate themed companies varying from a costume seamstress to children's birthday party plates. I have bought clothen from this seamstress and party supplies from this birthday supplier in the past and therefor feel good about telling my readers: hey, check this out. Had I not had a good experience buying from these companies in the past, I would not have added their affiliate links to my site.

Sometimes however, you might see a totally random banner which at first seems completely off topic, for example the Jelly Belly jelly bean banner you see frequently on my sites, usually on pages with nothing candy related at all. Why are they there? Well, for the simple fact that I could not find a product I use which did have an affiliate banner that was on topic, so I stuck a banner in for one of my favorite products regardless of topic as a way to not have an empty space on the page. Jelly Belly jelly beans have been a staple in my diet for close to 20 years now. Jelly Bellies are something you would expect to see me munching on, pretty much every day, any time, any place, and as I am the primary topic of my author website all about me, it therefore is perfectly on topic for pages to display banners of my favorite candy, in this case Jelly Bellies.

So, if that company contacting you, were contacting me, I'd turn them down straight away, because I don't know them, I don't use their product, and I just don't feel good about promoting a service/product/company on my site, if I don't make a habit of personally using their products myself. Perhaps others would disagree, but for me, I just would feel like I was cheating or lying to my readers, if I put a link to a product I'd never used. My readers look at the ads on my page and say "Hey, I'll try this because EelKat uses it" (I know they do because they have contacted me and said they do), I've had people link back to my blog, saying "I tried such-and-such because EelKat recommended it on her blog..." So I'd hate for someone to be saying I recommended an item, when I didn't actually recommend it! I suppose I do look at affiliate ads differently than most webmasters, because I'm a somewhat famous author and so people are coming to my website looking for information about me, and if I post an affiliate link on my page it's like I'm giving a "celebrity endorsement" to that company, so I'm very, very careful to only recommend products I use.

I suppose if they contacted me, the first thing I'd do was ask them why they thought I would be a good candidate for endorsing their product. I'd also ask them what benefit they think I can bring to their company (obviously they feel you can benefit them in some significant way, otherwise they would not have contacted you.) Me, I have really long hair, and have no need for a hair transplant, and would feel it false advertising to promote hair transplants on my site, because it would imply that my long hair is not my own, but rather that I had a transplant to get it. This would bother me. It would bother me a lot. It would bother me enough that I would turn down the offer regardless of how much it was. I'm not a person swayed by offers of money (as people have learned frequently). I have strong, high moral standards and I value them greatly, to the point that no amount of money ever has or ever will convince me to endorse or promote any product I do not use. Than again I am the founder of The Proctor and Gamble Boycott and am well known for my flagrant contempt for businesses thinking if they throw enough money at me, I'll shut up, so why would any business think throwing money at me would get me to support them?

My point is, you have to go with your gut on this one. It could be a good deal, sure, than again it could be a scam. Who knows? I don't that's for sure. All I know is, for some folks money talks and endorsing products they don't use is fine if the money if right. I'm not one of those people, so I'd turn down their offer. I can't tell you to accept or decline, you have to decide that for yourself. I can only tell you what it is I would do if it were me in your place.

You can read my FTC Disclosure Policy for more information on how I deal with these sorts of issues.

Hope that helps.

Evil men go out of their way to try to drive a person to suicide.

Are you an evil man?

Are you sure you're not?

How many people have YOUR hate filled words killed?

Next time you go to do a mean thing to a fellow human, stop and really think about the consequences of your actions.

Did you ever notice how every one has a story to tell about me, yet not one of them ever speaks the truth?

What lies has YOUR gossiping tongue spread about me?

Did you know...

October 16, 2006, bomb blew up my house because of YOUR lies.

August 8, 2013, the house which replaced the one the bomb blew up, was driven over by a backhoe.

November 14, 2013, my 8 month old infant son was murdered because of your lies.

November 14, 2013, I was beaten up, paralized for 5 months, spent 18 weeks relearning to walk, I'm now crippled for the rest of my life, because of YOUR lies.

Are you proud of what you have done?

Enjoy your eternity in Hell. You earned it. You've certainly worked hard for it.

The End?

No, you have NOT reached the end of this article! What you have reached is the end of what it currently online. The rest is coming, hopefully it'll be on here in a day or three so keep checking back. I will remove this message at the same time I put the rest of it online.

As my long time readers will already know a server crash took down most of the old free-hosted site on June 4, 2013 (which was online since 1997 and had reached 6,000+ pages). Thankfully everything was saved on a separate hard-drive and the site is being rebuilt with a new host and for the first time on it's own domain. YAY!

I am currently moving all 6,000 questions&answer articles to this site one page at a time, at a rate of about 4 to 7 new pages being added each day, so be patient. Not all links are yet clickable. This process started on September 2, 2013 and will be ongoing at least through to January 2014. (And it may be well into 2017 before all 6,000 pages will be back online if I continue at this rate of 5 a day.)
