Point taken. I suppose I was just getting a little jaded by seeing so many blogs that promoted BE or BC (which seem to just be creating a little sub-community of the same bloggers), and ones that looked like B1FF had had a hand in designing them. Having said that, I found <i>your</i> site through it, so at least one good thing's come out of it :) Heh. Point taken.

Even worse, most people have no idea what their audience is, and how to find them. I certaintly wouldn't know who my audience is, so the broad-sweep approach works best for me. This is certainly not a very focused blog! You certainly have a point, but most advertising is loosely targeted at best.

How many of those visitors are just clicking away trying to earn more credits, and not really reading your writing? I suppose it's nice to see when someone 'blogmarks' your site, but the stats aren't able to tell when people (like me) bookmark you in their browser or syndicate your feed. Sorry, I'm being long-winded. What I'm trying to get at is that surely it's better to target an audience that already has an interest in your themes? Or am I missing the point? (PS, I know, I'm a hypocrite ;) Is it worth it though? How many of those visitors are just clicking away trying to earn more credits, and not really reading your writing?
