This Week
Just a quickie this morning as I am tidying up and preparing for my trip to Kjerringøy, Norway. I will be there with a client for the week telling them how great I am and how lucky they are to have me around. Or something.
Posts will be pre-populated but I hope to get wifi. After what happened last time I am taking no chances though! Please forgive me if I do not answer comments as swiftly as usual.
Email Problems
Hopefully I got my email fixed up thanks to the wonderful services of DNSStuff and Fastmail.fm – if you need to diagnose DNS issues (turned out it was my domain supplier at fault) or need reliable IMAP email then check out those two services (neither are aff links).
One person warned me I might have been added to a spam filter – sometimes people mark as spam rather than unsubscribe from email digests and newsletters. To make it easy for people to contact me I use a real email address on my feedburner email digest. Please let me know if the spam theory looks to be the case for you?
There was a little down time while DNS issues were diagnosed and tweaked but hopefully the people I lost will return. It’s probably far more important that I get email swiftly than I have 100% uptime for one weekend.
It seems to be working now, I just received an email sent out on the 4th June :S
If you sent me an email recently and I didn’t reply, please try again.
Congratulations to Raj
Raj was mentioned in the New York Times! Jeremy and Darren were also mentioned but they are old hands at this kind of thing. So well done Raj.
Subscribers
Talking about congratulations, a couple of people pointed out I broke the 3,000 subscribers number before the weekend. It’s a bit early to celebrate because feedburner stats are always in flux but thanks for those who congratulated me. For all the people who asked how I did it, sign up for my new newsletter and look out for my forthcoming ebook. I could have had probably double that count but there are good reasons why I didn’t follow those tactics, you will learn about those reasons and tactics in the book also.
I’m such a tease! 🙂
