How to (temporarily) Parisify Your Weblog

Here's the story. Utterly and completely by accident, I went from approximately 400 page views a day to 3500 for a a single day (yesterday) simply by talking about Paris Hilton and her burger commercial. You too can have these wildly successful results. Just do this:
1. Find something about Paris Hilton that interests you. (This may be the hardest part of your project. But if you work hard, you can do it. Did you know Paris Hilton has a dog? Do you think she would be interested in my book?) I was interested in the Paris Hilton Carl's Jr. Ad, in part because I'd encountered it twice on television (which is strange to me, because I rarely watch television), and each time had said to myself, "self, what is that she's selling there?" And also, "cool Cole Porter cover." 2. Say something moderately interesting about your topic in a blog. Your blog. Any old blog will do. 3. Insert Technorati Tags into your blog. Like this: (Technorati Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ). 4. Be sure your blog pings Technorati. 5. Sit back and watch your hits quadruple for the following day.
A few provisos. It's only fair to note that your average Paris Hilton searcher is not going to spend much time on your blog. Don't expect them to. Just be happy with numbers. There's a big cool spike in your daily stats graph! Isn't it cool? Also, your numbers will likely plummet back to approximately where they were pre-Paris once you stop talking about Paris. (Do not fall prey to the stat addled... cut yourself loose... your blog is in danger of becoming topheavy with Paris Hilton links... you need your fix... you write a how-to "How To Get Paris to Visit Your Website Now!" It's madness. Get help. Now.) Honestly. Technorati: Tag: paris hilton Technorati Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,
