It is true, we have now received our first pictures of tagged vehicles! We have a red van (as seen on the main page) a caravan and what I am promised is a Rover (JPG corruption, sender is re-sending).
Its a day that will be forever ingrained on my memory, Wednesday 21st March 2007, the day that JonPearson.co.uk web stats went through the roof! All in all its a small victory, I say that the stats went through the roof, but from where the stats were at the end of February 2007 there really was no where else they could go! But i'm not going to put a downer on it, this is a day for celebration, a day to rejoice, a day to bath in the success that has been created and that success is down to you, and you and you (Jim'll Fix it).....
Well, its not gone well. The project as it stands is a complete failure. There has been no difference in web stats (in fact they are below average for a weekend). There are/were 3 vehicles out there over the weekend with the tag, zip interest was created!.....
I've decided to unleash Stage 2 of the great JonPearson.co.uk Project early! Yes that's right, I'm moving forward quicker than Britney Spears at a head shaving contest in a rehab clinic! The next stage is one that requires a little audience participation, the whole idea of the project, as it stands, is FREE ADVERTISING. I want to see the effect that free advertising will offer and I want to see how much of difference a bit of free advertising will do to my website stats.....
So what is this great project? The main aim of this project (stage 1) is to drive traffic towards my site, and all that will become clear once I've moved up to the later stages. Although the site has been "officially" up since December 2006 I don't feel that the site was properly launched untill 1st March 2007, that is this sites birthday and thats how it is going to stay, its my site, and I'll say what I want to!.....
