Recent good news of blogkid

Just found I prefer to write in English now, but I’m afraid not all my reader can well understand. Several good things happened in the recent tens of days, so I decided to write them down, and share my happiness with you all.

Niupu’s traffic reached 7,000 ip/day. Niupu got online in April, 2007, however , there were too much trouble to walk through. The development of niupu’s system cost me 2 months, while the maintenance cost more. But before 2008, I got no more than RMB 1,000 profit. I know money is not that important, but still , I’d like to get more to feed myself. 7,000 ips is not very large, but for small websites , it’s hard to reach. When the traffic has increased, the income now has an average RMB 100/day.

Thanks to Niupu’s great growth, my Google Adsense account balance is to reach $100 in near future (maybe this afternoon). Right now, there’s US$99.77 in my account. I’ll get paid in the end of March, maybe the beginning of April.

blogkid.cn was indexed by DMOZ. I submitted my blog to DMOZ months ago, however, I got no response. But today I checked the traffic report of blogkid.cn, only to find someone came from DMOZ. Amazing! Yep, now my blog is listed here, with a brief introduction, together with Wang Jianshuo’s blog .

Why DMOZ? I can only say,  as many search engines use the data of DMOZ, for a website, indexed by DMOZ is a good way to get SEOed. Alexa now used the new data of my blog, check out here.

niupu.com was indexed by Google. For 8 months or even longer, Google refused to index niupu. That is, you cannot found even a single page of niupu.com in Google’s search result. But last night when I searched “site:niupu.com” in Google, it returned tens of results, which made me more than glad. I’ll later write another post on how to get back in Google’s search result.

With the help from Google, I believe niupu will be larger and larger. Thus, I published an ad block on 阿里妈妈 ,  if you’d like to advertise on niupu, you can kindly have a look.

I’ll be back in Hangzhou before Feb 24th to have a new term started. But I did not get a train ticket till now.

Update: My Adsense account balance exceeded $100 a moment ago. $100 isn’t much, but is a milestone.
