Several days ago, a Multiply account linked to our Travel Blog that brought in a rush of readers. The traffic went four-folds that day:

Travel

Total number of direct referrals as of date is around 1,366 but after that initial link, the surge in traffic (pageviews) still continues. I believe this is because everyone who saw that link have never seen the blog before and got really interested in the volume of content we have there. So, they kept coming back each and every day for the past 5 days now, continue reading where they left off the night before. And because of that, I also receive a bunch of emails from people wanting to contribute to the blog.

Special thanks to kooki for the link. ;)

It’s good to see our local celebrities as part of the Pinoy Blogosphere. To see the real person in them and how they can have time to blog inspite of their busy schedule.

Anyone knows if a PBA player who blogs? In NBA.com, Gilbert Arenas of the Washington Wizards has his blog and I frequently read his posts. It’s interesting to know what goes his mind and you also get to know stuff that you won’t see on tv or read on the newspapers. :)
