Google Analytics acting funky
Hi all, having changed the blog theme, my Google Analytics stats have gone weird. They’ve dropped off a cliff today (I had a look earlier today and they were at the normal level). Now they are showing only 2 visitors. Hmmmm….
Anyone got any ideas? I’ll check tomorrow and see what is happening, but I might have to revert back to the old theme for now.
UPDATE – a few of my site stats are looking really low… anyone else experiencing problems?
New Blog Theme – your feedback counts
I’ve been running the same theme on theappleofmyi blog for a while now, and after a little bit of inspiration from my good friend Steve over on the Hasblog, (if you need some decent coffee, you need to subscribe to his blog – coffee adventures at their finest), I am trying out this new theme.
So, the big question is, what do you all think? If you have never commented on here, (and I know that is a fair few of you!), PLEASE can you take a moment and let me know your thoughts on this new design. Specifically,
- Is it easy to read?
- Does it look ok on your computer
- Can you navigate around the blog with ease?
- Do you find the sidebar widgets useful
I’m really trying to raise the standard of the blog this year, most importantly the content, but also the design / look / feel, so again, a plea for your feedback. Thanks!
New Bond Trailer – Quantum of Solace
For all you Bond fans out there, check out the just released trailer for the new Bond film, Quantum of Solace. Looks pretty good.
Brand Devotion
When you get people willing to camp out for 32 hours to be first at a store’s opening, you know that there is only one brand in the world that can do this.
Check out the video here – fans like these are the ultimate goal of company / brand. This is when you know you have the story, the myth, the product, the marketing right.
A couple of new features for you
Happy Sunday afternoon everyone! I hope you have all had a good weekend. I wanted to let you know about a couple of things I plan to do on the blog in the coming weeks….
- Start a regular series of post where I speak to people who own, or are involved in a business where their marketing has impressed me and/or they have a great product and you need to know about it!
- Start doing some regular reviews of websites which have caught my attention – pointing out what they are doing well, and perhaps, what they could do better
However, if you are a business owner and you fancy telling me what you’re doing with your marketing, don’t wait any longer, just get in touch via the contact form here, and perhaps we can have a chat and feature you on the blog!
I’ll be posting the first interview / feature this week, so check back in the next few days to get a strong, fresh, aroma of a great business doing very well.
