This isn’t really about the 3D printing but I suppose it is related. I realized that I needed to do something to promote my site. I’m really enthusiastic about my blog because I finally have something to blog about. I tried a things in the past, just posting funning things about current events, I posted my progress as I tried to loose weight, I tried to do a blog on Data Analysis and the R programming language, but could never get past a couple blog entries before I ran out of ideas or realized no one cared that I was loosing 3 lb a week. But I think this might be different if for no other reason than I am really enjoying myself. I’m actually accomplishing stuff – maybe not useful stuff just yet but that’s ok – and I think it may be interesting to other people out there who are interested in this stuff as well.
So, today I got web hosting, moved my existing WordPress site to the site … this one in fact. Set up some SEO stuff, like linking to Google Analytics and getting set up with Google and Bing so they know about the blog and will keep my pages in mind when someone searches for Hentai …. I mean 3D printing stuff. I set up an associated Facebook page and Twitter account, please join if you are into that kind of thing. It was all rather harrowing and I would have preferred to be working on the next part of my Web Cam Positioner project instead
- My First 3D project – part 5 – Good enough for government work.
- My First 3D project – part 4 – Hold me down
- My first 3D project – So refined, more refined than anything else. The most refined.
- My first 3D project – “Disneyland is fun. This is not fun.”
- My first 3D project – Part 2 – Web Cam positioner a ball(sy) joint
- My first 3D project – Part 1 – Web Cam Positioner
Since I had my blog site on WordPress.com for about 4 days before moving it today. I doubt anyone saw it there and I’m currently writing mostly to myself. But that’s cool. I like me more that most people and I kind of get me most of the time and I like reading what I write so until that changes I’m good with just me and myself. Maybe I will join in too. I can be a little … stand off-ish though. Although me, myself and I can have a good time together, but only in limited doses before we need to step back and have some alone time again. But I or is it me, digress.

If you want people to visit regularly, post a “pet tax” photo of one of your many beasts. Could be it just laying there, but better if it’s doing something stupid. People love that stuff. Could even boost your SEO more than hentai. If you post video of them mating, you could be a hit on both searches. Your WP host probably tracks and charges for GB served, so keep the resolution low and fuzzy. Let the viewer imagine what ever they want.
Sorry, I digress. You probably want comments about 3D printing stuff.
How about posting some info about your printer? What kind is it, why you choose it over another kind, what do you like/hate about it?
Thank you for the feedback. I’m not sure anything can boost SEO more than Hentai but I’ll consider your suggestions. My service provider, HostGator, provides unlimited bandwidth and storage. I was surprised too, but I’m sure any limiting factor is the compute capacity of the host itself. I’m sure they pack as many hopeful bloggers on 1 AWS t3.micro as they feel they can get away with.
I provided a link to the manufacturers’ information for the printer in my first post. I’m a combination of lazy and frugal, so I figured if someone was interested they could go look there. I didn’t consider that others would be as lazy as me or not know how to follow a link so I’m adding a page with the printer specs. I guess I’ve used the printer enough to write a review. You can expect something in the next couple of days.
