means dongles, London for Free, twitter, xobni and two new web books. Its been a busy web week.
I’ve been thinking for a while about getting a new phone so I can check out all the mobile apps available. But after posting about it on FaceBook, I realise the choice is staggering.
Now I really don’t need [...]
Last week I discovered Google Website Optimiser. It’s a great free service that allows you to perform some simple A/B and multivariate tests on a website. And it helped me to understand more about what these types of tests are, and how to set them up.
First, A/B Testing.

Today I visited ecommerce expo in London. It was interesting, not only for the presentations on social media but also to see the number of snake oil vendors still operating in the marketplace.
You know, the types of guys who’ll sell you a custom website for £4k (5 pages only, and SEO advice extra, of course) [...]

Since 24th April when the site was relaunched, it [...]

Though site traffic is slightly down from the old version of the site (when comparing April to May) the number of pages visited per user is far higher.
Less visitors but more in depth visits – I’m happy with that. The lower number of [...]
The site has now been live for just ten days and I’m already seeing a significant increase in affiliate earnings.
Some broad facts and figures:
- on my old site, google adsense adverts were generating earnings of around $5 a month simply based on the single link sitting neglected on my old home page
- over the [...]
The re-designed London for Free site is now live.
After spending every weekend this year – and many evenings – working away at it, it feels strange to suddenly not have to write content, design pages and fix bugs.
