Site Update: 400

Perceptive readers may have noticed that this site recently crossed the 400 plateau in terms of feed subscribers. For those of you who don't know what that means (and you could have counted me as a member of this group a mere 12 months ago), there are 400 individuals who receive our posts either via e-mail or automatically onto a personalized "favourites" web page. If you are a frequent visitor of this site, you might want to consider subscribing to save yourself a trip to the site each time! (To do so, just follow the "RSS" or "E-mail" links at the top of the right frame. To read more about it, see here.)

Readers will also notice that the subscriber count is well over 400, as rather than tiptoe across that mark, we blew by it in the course of a few days. The reason for this is simple: a site with a readership which shares similar values to the readers of our site recently posted a guest article advertising our site. We have had occasion to advertise our site in this manner three times, and all three times we have added to our subscriber base significantly.

As such, we will look for opportunities to continue to trade guest articles with sites similar to ours. Our readers should benefit by getting the opportunity to hear from more authors who think and act like value investors, and our site should benefit from the increased viewership by way of higher advertising revenue.

If any of you read other blogs or sites with subject matter of a similar disposition to ours that you feel would make an ideal candidate for a guest post, feel free to let us know by commenting on this post. Conversely, if you are a publisher with similar content interested in sharing guest articles, also let us know!

The sites with which we have previously arranged guest posts (perhaps you came to our site from one of these sources!) are as follows:


As always, do let us know if you have any suggestions going forward!

Saj,


Congratulations to the accomplishment!I actually found out your site from a google search. Hope RSS subscriber will reach 4000, 40000, 4000000 soon... =)

Too bad that your blog service provider doesn't allow MyYahoo to subscribe to the feeds..I guess it's because it is owned by Google... =(

Thanks 008!

By the way, we have many My Yahoo subscribers! If you click the rss link, it should be the first icon under "Subscribe Now" on the right side of the screen. Are you having problems with it?

Congrats on 400 Saj!...Love reading about the stock picks...the book summaries make me sleepy...ha ha ha...look forward to many more posts.

Jason Huang said...

Oh ya...one suggestion...any way to hyperlink to just your stock picks...? i.e. organize blog posts with book reviews, stock picks, econ analysis...etc?

Thanks, Jason. Econ articles are not separated, but have you looked at the "Value In Action" and "Book Summary" tabs under the title? Is more organization of that kind what you're looking for or did you have something else in mind?
