Hostnine Review – It’s time to give these guys some credit!

October 28, 2014 by Douglas Bonneville

Hostnine shared hosting review It’s time to give a healthy dose of credit where it is due! With so many places to buy shared hosting, reseller hosting, and various VPS services, and with wildly-crazy levels of service and value among the myriad choices, I know it’s helpful to read reviews about web hosting companies from trusted sources. BonFX has been around long enough and has been hosted long enough with the same hosting company to offer a very qualified review. To say the least, Hostnine has been a partner for us and I want to tell you a little about them, and I want you to sign up for them if you need a new web host, reseller or shared, or a cloud VPS. … [Read More]

How to get Google Analytics stats for today only with one simple click

September 22, 2009 by Douglas Bonneville

I check Google Analytics a lot to see how this or that article is tracking. I’m almost never interested in what happened yesterday, but rather what is happening today. In Google Analytics, you have to click through several screens and drop-down menus to get to todays data. Right now it takes 6 clicks and 4 screens to get at the data I want. That’s too much! I’ve written a small jQuery plugin that makes it easy to see only todays stats. It takes you right to your domain stats with info delimited to today. Nice! … [Read More]

50 Feedback comments wanted on new blog!

September 12, 2009 by Douglas Bonneville

Blogging tips needed!

My blog is brand new. I’m new to this kind of blogging as well. I’m fairly new to SEO though I have gotten some great results with my initial site in it’s pre-blog incarnation. For instance, I was in the top 20 for some key terms (“freelance graphic designer“), and number one for local variations on that.

Evaluation of graphic design articles

If you have a few minutes, I’d love to hear some drag-down, knock-out assessments of some of the graphic design content on the site. The first few articles are longer and not very optimized, but as I researched how to write over the last week, I think I’ve made some progress. There are a lot of great resources and my learning uptake is about as fast as it can be. I’m drinking from the WordPress SEO firehose!

WordPress plugins to manage site and increase SEO of site

Can you recommend anything specific? I’d love to chat about it…

Evaluation of anything else for SEO

As my site finishes coming together and I get more content going, I’d love to hear whatever you might have to say, if you have any experience in SEO at all. It will be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
