Thanks, Ken!

You don't need to link to your website, this is just a form of getting backlinks and it definitely not needed. If you were to give me one hour doing something, I would spend that hour building content vs. getting these backlinks 100% of the time.

Thanks for the response, Kyle! Duly noted.

My guess would be it shouldn't hurt your ranking, but that may depend on how you're going about it.

If you're just posting the link with no added content and on several communities, Google may look at this differently, they normally flag posts like that as spam.

But if you post links and they get +1'd, shared, and comments, then this probably adds more value to you as the author and the link/site.

I appreciate the comment, Welshy! I'll keep that in mind.

Hello, WA community!
So, this morning I check my stats and find that I have had 3 page views. That's a good start! Though, I know of 3 more, at least, that checking in since th

If you analytic software is detailed (in-depth), then it will chart by IP address and if you are clicking from your own PC, it will not count it. I like those type of analytics because they provide a real click count. If I'm working on my site and checking each change... and the software counts each click... I have no idea what is real or not. It's best to have deep and full analytic software for accurate marketing statistics.
Hope this helps.

It slightly does... I'm with Google Analytics, though I realized that I don't have any stats for today, Feb 6th. Do most reports release a day after the fact? It would explain why I only have yesterday's report. Thank you!

I believe that there are some which are almost instant. If you have a WP site, then check WordPress.org for a plug-in and research the depth and frequency. All the best

Thank you very much!

Hello, WA!

I finally have a short list of possible domain names for my romance website. I was wondering which one you think is most effective. Here it goes:

romancej

I like trueromance.net all the best

Thanks, Max! I have a bit to think about... I'll update on which I choose tomorrow.

I like Romance Journey.My domain is .org.

Thanks, Tom! I appreciate the feedback.

I think you should go for trueromance.net sounds cool

I'll definitely keep that in mind. Thanks!

I think it may depend on what you are doing with your website. If you are viewing novels then maybe trueromance. If you are telling real peoples stories then several of the choices would be great. ( I would choose .org before .net)

Thank you, RJ! It would be focusing on relationship advice and tips.

Hi MJ. maybe romancerevelations would be good as it is quite a challenge for us men and women to really understand each other once emotions come into play.

I do like the ring of it. Thanks, RJ! That could be the one. My girlfriend approves of that as well and she gets two votes!!!

That's ok then MJ. That's half the battle to actually get agreement on something. I will look forward to you publishing your website as I will be interested in some tips myself.

.net would be better but to be honest the most important factor is great content. I have a .info and have no trouble getting ranked.
That being said, I think I like romance journal because it brings to mind different ways you can go. For example - I think it would be an awesome thing to be able to offer your readers an online journal themselves. I bet there's a plugin for that.

Thanks, Angela! That's a good point. I'll definitely keep that in mind.
