Thanks Brian for including us!

He is right – I don’t give much thought to SEO, which is probably why we had the lowest number of estimated monthly visits (by far) of the nine blogs included. He mentioned that the view-counter tends to be low, especially for hyperlocal sites.

Here’s our number of viewers this month from Google Analytics:

I’m glad you’re here – thanks for participating!

    Congratulations JtR!

    After viewing bubbleinfo I click on over to Bloomberg. That says something.

    SEO “quality” is not a metric. If it were you’d rank at the top.

    Agree – SEO is a gimmick to get a blog post to the top of Google – but what’s the benefit? The chance of people searching for that specific data who also happen to be buyers or sellers of San Diego real estate is very small.

    But I get 5-10 solicitations per day from people who swear they will get me on the first page. Just the number of solicitors makes me suspicious.

    That says something.

    Thanks Mozart for your support! There are hundreds or thousands of realtors and civilians who read this blog without comment. I appreciate yours.

    I had the popular WordPress app called Yoast SEO plugged in for years and it never did much. Their most recent version was mega-crapola that bogged down the whole blog, so I cancelled my subscription.

    I also cancelled by Bubbleinfo mobile app over the weekend. It wasn’t working! Natalie is in the hunt for a new one, after all these years.

    Thanks a million – it means a lot coming from you.

    Well deserved!

    After all these years, I’m still a regular reader despite having decamped. Your big picture takes as well as amusing anecdote are top-notch!

    We bought our house in 2017 (thanks, Jim, Donna and Kayla) and I still come to BubbleInfo just for an overall San Diego market status, Jim’s “drive around town” videos and home walkthrough videos.

    I like the home walkthrough videos to get ideas on what to do and what not to do to our house in future upgrades and renovations. And the drive around town videos since we’re still somewhat new to the area (2013 is when we moved here from Phoenix)

    Keep up the great work, Jim!

    We’re so glad that we got great help!

    My goodness but you have been writing them and I have been reading them for an awfully long time!

    Thanks Andrewa but let’s leave it at that, ok?

    Don’t be like the realtor earlier this year who told me, “You used to be so funny!” 😆 😆
