what else on blog domains?

I never thought of that...yes, I would have built up quite a few pages then. It's so different, I'm used to making my own folders and subdirectories, not having them made automatically

I'm thinking having a freesite here and there on your blog domain can't hurt - it will help bring traffic to the domain, maybe people will stay and look around at what else you've got to offer.

It's the traffic issue that I'm looking at...how to bring more traffic to the blog. Since mine is on a root, I thought it should stay 'separate' but really, I'm tying it into my LL all the time, so now I'm looking into different ways to do that, and of course I thought of freesites too. (I love your blogs, by the way, they're awesome! )

that's an interesting concept...I was wondering about mixing porn surfers and blog readers - can people surfing for porn pics read? j/k
I just always thought of them as quite a different audience, and was planning to send my blog readers to the LL, not the other way around really. But I'll have to play around with a few different ideas now.

btw, building freesites isn't that hard, learning to blog effectively has been much harder for me - we're always a noob at something

thanks for the feedback!
