I just got a notice that I have been featured in a round up by Money Sense (before being featured, I hadn't heard of them but they have a PR of 6) for a post that I don't consider my best. Just a catchy title, i guess.
Here's to the "randomness" that comes with blogging! :)
If you want to check it out, here's the link: http://www.moneysense.ca/2011/…..2-roundup/
Anyone else know more about Money Sense??

Money Sense is a pretty major publication / magazine here in Canada. The guy who runs Canadian Capitalist is heavily involved.
Congrats – they've never picked me up!

Congrats Corey! But, honestly I'm not surprised :)
I think it's funny to hear you say that you didn't care for the post. Sometimes the one's we like most are the one's that fail and the one's we don't care for are the one's that go viral.

Good work, it's always a great surprise to get picked up by a major publication. What was the impact on your traffic?

Thanks for the vote of confidence Smartfamilyfinance.
I am finding that it indeed works that way sometimes. :)

Thank you LaTisha and Khaleef. I am really excited. This came at a great time – my stats were taking a huge hit for some reason that I have yet to figure out. :) I know it it's not all about the numbers, but it is nice to know people are reading what you are writing. Anyways, thanks everyone for the encouragement! Yakezie has been wonderful for me and still is (and will continue to be).

Corey its part and parcel of the game, you will see continuous three to four weeks of growth then suddenly you will see a drastic reduction. It happens all the time.
The strategy I adopted now is to look in to monthly traffic rather than daily or weekly. If you adopt this strategy you have to worry only for one day in a month

That's awesome, Money Sense is a pretty big deal. Anyone know if they are related to the personal finance periodical in Canada?
