How Did This Get Here Not Good With Computer Etc…

Wow! My Navy buddy, David, contacted me on Facebook and let me know about his website that is helpful for military families. He actually featured www.SteelBinders.com and The Million Dollar Homepage on www.ShotofPride.com! I returned the favor and listed h
is website on our homepage. Now I just have to figure out how to update the “Advertisers” page to reflect Steel Binders and Shot of Pride.
I did figure out how to add a Google Plus button on the footer of all the webpages. It’s not perfectly how I want it, but it works fine.
Amazingly enough, our search results are unbelievably awesome and we are only a couple of weeks old. A lot of referring sites are linked to us. I finally figured out how to insert the Google Analytics script, so that should have some data now. Looks like we had 6 visitors Tues and 14 on Wed! UPDATE: 29 Views Yesterday! (12-16-11) I think I actually started it Tues afternoon, so hopefully the 14 figure is more accurate. If you search “the million dollar homepage” (no quotes) on various search engines, here are our current spots on the first page:
Google: 3!
Yahoo: 9 (P.S. Yahoo, I love Fantasy Football Live Sunday Mornings!)
Swagbucks: 3! (I guess it’s just Google search with extra ads?) My referral link is www.swagbucks.com/refer/gstein if you want to sign up. Seems like a “Swagbuck” is worth about one penny in gift cards. I have a whole 265 Swagbucks, so I’m ballin’. It seems like if you stick with it and use it to do your daily searches, you can eventually get gift cards for useful stuff. Since we are addicted to Amazon, I’m sure we would spend buy their gift cards!
Ask.com: 5!
Bing.com: 8
AOL: 4! I remember the good old days of AOL.com. The chatrooms were so much fun when I first discovered them. I think my favorite line was “22/M/Sexiest damn amputee u ever done saw” … SAW get it… sawed off limbs? Beuller?
I’m reaching now:
Mamma.com: 2!
WorstSearch.com: Server down I think, oh well
Altse.Vunet.org: Couldn’t find us. Very fun results though.
Cuil.com: Server down?
Well, here’s to hoping I haven’t somehow managed to destroy my search results with some of the crazy stuff I’ve done with this site. With all the traffic I hope to someday get, maybe someone will toss me a bone and buy a pixel block. Please! Actually, I’d be surprised if we don’t sell at least some space. You’d think that the traffic would be worth at least a little to someone out there.
Online!

We are online! Thanks to everyone at 123Triad for their assistance getting the website up and running. I am really excited about this project. I’m curious as to how it will be received and what will happen later on down the road as advertisers sell, rent and trade their adspace.
