Testing with Blitz

September 26, 2011 — Leave a comment

Since I’m always seeking to increase speed, I always need new tools to test everything. I use Pingdom Tools and Google Page Speed (GPS) on an almost daily basis. Though those sites are great for testing load speed, I needed something else tested: capacity. Pingdom Tools and GPS only simulate one user at a time, and while it’s nice, it’s not always practical.

Bringing it Back: The Week In Review

October 28, 2010 — Leave a comment

I started blogging again a week ago. Since then, I’ve talked a lot about blogging, being happy with it, and I even had my blog reviewed! I had taken some time off, and I needed it to realize how much I really do enjoy this. Right now, there’s no way I could do this full time, but it’s fun and definitely keeps me occupied. Since I started, here’s some stats from the beginning of the month until yesterday:

  • 164 page views
  • 103 Visits
  • 92.23% of those visits are new people
  • Most visitors are coming from Facebook, Twitter, Google, and TentBlogger.com

Truthfully, the numbers aren’t that impressive, but that’s ok!

For most, it takes time to build up viewers. I’m here for the long haul and anxious for what the future holds.
