The staff at Blogcritics.org sure know how to maximize the features at google. I've only made one post at blogcritics and now if you search for the terms "bored of education" or "books math education" my blog comes up on the first or second page of results. Even a search for "mugglenet" brings up my blog at the number two spot.
It's almost frightening. I feel like the student who doesn't want to do well on a test. Because if he does, people will continue to expect high marks, and he doesn't want the added pressure.
I didn't feel any pressure when only a few friends were reading. Now I can see that if I promote it properly, I could develop a much larger audience. Before I do so I need to do some maintenance. First, I need to reorganize my sidebars so they are easier to navigate. Second, I need to upload some graphics to make it look nicer. Finally, I need to create a useful profile with contact information.
Before I do these things I'm only going to make the minimum number of posts at blogcritics. (I signed up to review four books. Since the publishers' agents are sending them to me I feel I should review them as soon as possible regardless of the state of my blog.)
Anyway, I've got a lot to do. Its a good thing I'm on spring break.
