Update 2 on the site overhaul. I am going to be removing the current hobbies page and just adding a dropdown menu. I know, not as cool as right now but I think it will be better in the long run with the hobbies I want to add. also I already spent an hour making a working drop down menu sooooo. Tomorrow's goal is to make a whole "About Me" page, and guestbook page to link to buttons on the home page. Will report back

Update: 2/1/25- I’ve decided to add updates for each detail I add to my blog, here, as well as on my actual page. I’m currently working my ‘the moon’ article at this moment and will let you know when it is complete. Hope to see you soon.

I just finished the article/essay I mentioned and I've added it to the new section I made in my creations page. It turned out pretty interesting and I had more to say than I thought. Also, strangely, once again the activity for this most recent update isn't showing up. That is odd. Are any of the rest of you having issues with some updates not showing in the activity feed?

Besides the planned updates for today, I also have a request for the community and/or my readers: What do you think of the items I have on my Payhip and Ko-fi, such as the new texture pack and my books? So far, nobody is actually buying them directly from me (though a few probably went to Amazon for the books to do so) and I am wondering why. Do you guys not trust Payhip or Ko-fi? Just not interested in the items?

All of the items I have available are widely useful and/or deeply interesting and effortful. I have: (1) a massive research textbook in formal logic, (2) a small and broadly applicable game dev book, (3) an indie license agreement that is more flexible and useful than Creative Commons, and (4) a massive 500 seamless texture pack that could be applied to countless different things. All of these are very widely useful.

Moreover, all of the items are also extremely cheap as of the current costs I've set for them. I also supposedly receive views ranging from ~25 to 300 per day from Neocities and yet the numbers don't seem to add up in terms of analytics on the other sites, not even accounting for how low "conversion rates" are across the whole web. So, that has struck me as quite odd for a long while now. Any thoughts on that?

wraithglade 2 months ago

I like the Neocities community and the strength in numbers it potentially provides, but without the ability to trace where the views are coming from I have become increasingly skeptical of the nature of them and have begun to think of my view count as essentially a random number generator with no connection to reality. I like the community here, but I am afraid I may soon need to move someplace with real site stats.

i manually counted the number of images on my homepage (currently the page with the highest number of images since i disabled my gallery) and the numbers don't add up. it says on the stats tracker that if a page has 6 files, 6 hits will be counted, but the hit count is WAY too low assuming people are coming in through my index page. i'm not even a subscriber and my numbers make no sense.

Thanks for the info badgraph1csghost. 😎 It's always good to hear from you. I hadn't even thought about the image loading inconsistencies but was largely fixated on inconsistencies in traffic numbers associated with links on my site that do (unlike Neocities) have a greater degree of analytics or at least different data sets. It still doesn't make a lot of sense. Either way though, I'll need to find a way forward.

I picked quite an inopportune time to try to start making a living on the internet it feels like. Either that, or I just haven't found a good approach to getting more real traffic yet. I'll just have to keep making new attempts and alterations until I get there I guess. Perhaps I am just clueless about what most people do. I do somewhat "live under a rock" and am often swamped trying do so many different things.

I've done some reorganizing of the "My Creations" page today and I think you will find it clearer and easier to navigate. One section was split in two and another new section is added and will recieve its first entry soon. I've also added a link to my index page for a charity I support and regularly donate to (The National Forest Foundation).
