PageRank

By far the most valuable thing I’ve ever done in terms of driving traffic to my site was to give away a wordpress template.

The funny thing is that I don’t own that site any longer. The domain wasn’t right – it was http://dice.cx – still, it shows up near the top when you search for schlender – my last name.

I’m getting ready to post an application I developed and running into that daunting “web-promotion” task again. The application itself is free – a set of 3 roll-able online dice that keep track of their own statistics. It’s all written in Flash though, and I have a feeling google is going to have a hard time making head or tail of it. I’d like to see it get used. You’ll be able to find it at http://www.free-online-dice.com.

Maybe I’ll release it as a widget on some of the widget sites as well — or a teaser version might do as well.
