Actually I have abandoned this blog for a while. I feel like I’m not on the mood of blogging recently. Very, very low posting frequency… I wrote new post probably twice a month (in average). For the moment I just become internet slave browsing others stuff without much contributing back. I envy lots of people success building their blog traffic. I amazed browsing others blog that alredy hit less than 100K Alexa rankings. Not to tell how much they have earned blogging… also with damn much user contributed comments… You all doing great guys, I envy you all.

Probably the goal I set last time just too high? Perhaps this time I’ll set a more achievable goal.
As I wrote this post the current ranking at Alexa for this site was 1,747,363 (3 month average)…but some people says Alexa wasn’t really accurate source (but I don’t care about it now). Google Analytics says 50 visitors a day with 70% bounce rate (average). Not to tell you how much AdSense earnings, shameful.
I don’t think that I’m dumb in generating traffic, I’ve read SEO stuff everyday, mostly from DiGG site… back links, link baiting, PR, high traffic keywords, niche keywords, repicoral links, social networks, feeds, subscribers, SEO tweaks, black hat .etc… but I’m just not taking them seriously and not taking much action for it. Sure Joel Comm says I’m leaving the money on the table.

Well to tell you all more, I’m actually talented enough to rebuild WordPress blogging system from scratch. For me it’s just a matter of time to spend working on it. I have enough coding skills (as working as fulltime programmer & software project manager) I know much PHP+MySQL, and can be considered them as my second mother tongue language.

Maybe I’m an introvert person with high level of inferiority complex problem … a person that just doesn’t want to be appeared to the public, but dreaming to become a superstar. That’s why the Ex Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir invented “Malaysia Boleh” slogan… its just to wake up people like me.

Another major reason I didn’t blog much is because I’m actually wasn’t good in English. It wasn’t my mother tongue language after all. My mother never spoke English… am I good at writing now? Actually I wrote this post on Microsoft Word, with spelling and with assisted grammar and auto-spell checker. I can’t speak fluently either. You probably noticed some stupid grammar mistakes Ms Word misses. I never known I had any grammar mistakes here.

But why I’m struggling writing in English? It’s because I believe when I wrote in English I could reach more visitors rather my own language. Wasn’t I supposed to cater my local readers? Actually there were probably much demand and niche on those topics. The reason is I can’t make monetize page with that language contents with any contextual ads and some ads agency won’t approve sites with Malay language. I have another Malay forum site. It didn’t have much traffic.

It takes almost 2 hours for me to write these 500 words for non-techie and just an emotional personal article. If I want to beat others posting 5 to 10 post per-days when could I beat them?

It’s time for came back and probably a blog re-launch. Actually 3 days ago my blog just wasn’t appeared like this; just a few days ago I thought I got a new fresh idea for my sites. After a year self studied, hope the motivation keeps along, or I’m lost again.

Is anyone here care about me? Care to drop some opinion…
