What Is Website Traffic? A Traffic Podcast

I was recently asked to be a part of a podcast created by Purely Hosting where we talked about what website traffic is and why it’s so important.  Purely Hosting is one of the world’s leading web hosting companies, specializing in shared hosting solutions for business and personal sites.  You can find them on the web at http://purelyhosting.com, follow them on Twitter or friend them on Facebook.

If you recall, we recently ran a series of posts that talked about the different types of website traffic and the differences between them:

Horror Buffs Get A Platform For Blogging At ScareTissue.com

KTC Digital is proud to announce the launch of a movie review blog called ScareTissue!  ScareTissue (http://www.scaretissue.com) is a blog by two friends who met in college and wanted a place where they could review some of their favorite (and not so favorite) horror movies.

As ScareTissue is a side project for both founders, project cost was a large consideration.  We built the new site on the content management system (CMS) WordPress which allows multiple authors to add content to the site with little or no programming knowledge necessary.

Features of the new ScareTissue.com website include:

Digital And Email Marketing Done Right By LinkedIn

In a world where I get more SPAM emails that I know what to do with it’s always nice to see an email marketing campaign that really hits the mark.  I received this one a while back from LinkedIn and while it’s taken me some time to get it posted I simply had to share it:

Hi Greg,

Evernote Password Reset Notification

Evernote – http://evernote.com - is an amazing tool.  It is a suite of software designed for note taking and storing notes.  A “note” can be any document or piece of text (formatted however you wish), a web page, pictures, etc.  Notes can have file attachments and can be sorted and tagged for ease of retrieval later.  The real beauty of Evernote is that you can access your notes across all of your devices including Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Android, iOS (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch), Windows Mobile, etc.

The Best Of KTC Digital For 2012

Being the absolute web analytics geek that I am, I’m always interested to see what content on our website people are interested in.  I “only” wrote 27 blog posts last year which is admittedly below my once per week goal for the site, but it was well above the one per month that I did in 2011.  I suppose the good news in that is this… I’d MUCH rather work on our client’s websites that on our own.  And this past year that’s exactly what I did.

2012 was an outstanding year for KTC Digital and I want to take this opportunity… Continue reading

Jetpack Carousel In Action

WordPress – http://www.wordpress.org/ - is an amazing tool and started out as a blogging platform and over the years has grown to a full featured content management system (CMS).  One of the greatest things about the tool is that while it’s incredibly powerful out of the box, it can very easily be customized to meet your needs.  Much of the customization we do for our clients is done through Plugins. (See also Essential WordPress Plugins)

One of the plugins that I’m a big fan of is called Jetpack.  It’s got a whole slew of additions that depending on the website and client… Continue reading
