An inevitably successful blog.

Research has led me to conclude that a successful blog (i.e. a blog with vast readership, regular comments and a high number of hits from search engines) should include at least one of each of the following ( Read more... )

Cat macros should be funny and have bad grammar: http://icanhascheezburger.com/ .

You can also do well by saying something totally outrageous and then insisting it's true (complete with erroneous 'proof'). Insulting people tends to get a large response, too, as does declaring your undying love for your worst enemy.

Snumbledore is a pairing combination, sort of like Chiquita when the fangirls talk about my brother and Sen-nii.

Hello, Inui-san. ^_^

. . . Poor grammar is somewhat painful for me. Perhaps I should focus more on draws other than cat macros from now on.

Insulting people has been recommended to me by several sources now. I will keep it in mind.

Declaring my undying love? I'm not certain who my worst enemy would be. Mizuki, maybe?

. . . I'm sorry, I didn't understand a word of that.

Hello. Oh, yes, I should practice my emoticons. []-[]

That's probably for the best.

Hee! You'll get tons of response if you pick on Mizuki. Really, though, your blog should reflect who you are, too, not just be an attempt to please everyone else.

"Snumbledore" means a Snape/Dumbledore pairing. The fangirls think that Tachibana looks like bananas. Sen-ni's last name starts with "chi." Chiquita is a brand of bananas that has "chi" in front of it. Quite a reach, huh? ^_^

That's a lot of characters in your emoticon! If I were you, I'd keep it on my clipboard so I could paste it. I'm lazy like that.

Thank you, this has all been very informative. Although I must concede I find the "pairing name" for your brother and his partner somewhat disturbing.

Mm, I might just do that. []-[] It is 2.4 times more time-consuming to type than the average emoticon.

Inui, it's nice to see you here! Good luck with making your blog successful. Maybe I should use some of those ideas sometime.

((OOC: This post is amazing. New!Inui, ILU.))

I would advise against cat macros, if you do. They are startlingly difficult to get the hang of.

((OOC: Thank you! :">))

You're probably right. I don't really get them. And I don't want to post porn either.

Actually, feedback would indicate porn is likely the best way of improving readership.

If you don't have any to post, I can email you some.

This is lame. You should have put porn instead.

I must concede that the cat macros were less successful than I had hoped.

I might next time. Hmm. How old are you?

Porn bothers people. People like to bitch about everything. So you'll get comments for sure.

Hmmm. Noted. Thank you.

WTF. This post was a waste of my time.

...but it did have cats in it.

. . . Hm.

Next time I will probably just go with porn.

Cat porn?

This was a very interesting post, Inui-san!!! It is good to see you here on Livejournal, you're so cool!!!

Thank you, although I'm afraid it wasn't quite as successful as I had hoped. Next time, I think I will stick to porn.
