I never thought to do this for my blog as I am only trying to share information about my boatbuilding project with friends and family, but as I get more and more page views, I have to wonder where they are coming from!<br /><br />Thanks for blogging - always a good resource.Dereckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17470003841215324984noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2552584137492521248.post-54942401446154673592011-04-30T08:56:38.994-04:002011-04-30T08:56:38.994-04:00Blogger does not seem to have some of the cool fun...Blogger does not seem to have some of the cool functionality and plug-ins as others (<em>like Wordpress</em>) but I decided on the Blogger platform for two reasons:<br /><br />1. Their relationship (<em>ownership of</em>) Google, so obviously they will send searchers to their own blogs before handing them off (<em>daily stats will show 60-70 visitors find me via Google, and 1 for Bing and/or Yahoo</em>).<br /><br />2. I was looking to model after someone who was already success and if Blogger was good enough for Strobist it would certainly be good enough for me.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01893246484733071180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2552584137492521248.post-43984910904168937592011-04-30T08:46:21.678-04:002011-04-30T08:46:21.678-04:00Great advice Scott.

This is all a great help!<br /><br />I also noticed that other platforms have an automatic feature for you to choose how a hyperlink opens where blogger doesn't appear to. It's definitely a good idea to have things open in a new window, so I guess it's better to put in the HTML manually for those. In trying it right now though, I noticed you have to close the quotes before target="_blank".<br /><br />...think I'll go and change some of those over right now....<br /><br />Thanks again!<br /><br /><a href="http://shaynegraylearnsphotography.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">shayne gray learns photography</a>shayne grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08331034629576182425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2552584137492521248.post-18124884589426584052011-04-28T20:30:12.524-04:002011-04-28T20:30:12.524-04:00This is awesome information!
