Today's top story at Before it's News is about demonic faces appearing in the skies above Arizona.
Ya, right!
And I've got crop circles spelling out that Moshe Feiglin is the Messiah!
I'd prefer to keep that quiet though, because Feiglin is likely to believe it. Especially if The Oracle has spoken via crop circles.
But seriously, where do those pageviews come from?
One thing I've noticed frequently is that when a blog-post is getting a lot of traction, as in dozens of pageviews in the first few minutes, it will suddenly hit a wall. I know that doesn't just happen to me, it happens to plenty of bloggers who appear on Before it's News.
Even more miraculously, the pageview count can actually go down. Yup, you can have 125 hits ten minutes after you publish… and a half hour later you'll be down to 75!
How is such a thing possible?
If you follow who is publishing the top stories of the day at Before it's News, the rubbish about aliens and the NWO etc, you'll find that it's almost always written by B4 insiders.
Looks to me like those sly dogs have engineered the software to re-direct my pageviews to other sites, and not just mine, of course, but anybody who is not an insider.
That's how silly twaddle like this has got over 1,000 views in the last hour!
Page views and bots are purchased in order to attract top advertising dollar. “It’s just good business”. The lure for contributors (the unpaid ones) is sometimes sincere and sometimes malevolent; the lure for readers is sensationalist headlines and the same kind of morbid curiosity that makes people buy supermarket tabloids.
Last year I thought I’d have a go at uploading an article for the first time. I wrote out the 6 duties granted to the Executive Branch under the Constitution. It never got any page views because it never appeared! I received no replies to my enquiries to BIN administrators. I never tried again.
Now, I just comment on trying to spread the truth about the Police State to others instead of ‘preaching to the choir’.
Theres definitely a lot of horsechocolate on this site. You have the stupid, political slaves, the religious nuts (Im not against Jesus or God but religion is so far removed from truth), the outright delusional, nitwits, halfwits, twits, twats, bots, have-nots, the general masses, asses, jerks, twerps, dips, ad infinitum. If you can find the 5% of decent articles youre doing well. Most of the articles are just outright humorous, which means they should be commented on as such. A person would be better suited to start a blog and not try to write anything on this site; at least youd not have the half-wits deleting your posts. So much for being an ‘alternative’ site. If your views arent as low-brow as some authors youre chances of comments not vanishing diminish greatly. For an ‘alternative’ site there certainly a lot of people who stick with what the ‘system’ offers.
