One question … How to Break News ?
Ahh… cool post.
10 out of 10 for creativity!
You got me
Got my attention anyway! Very funny John, nice and original too.
Awesome, John.
But then again, I’m a little biased toward cartoons in blog posts
Tony, I’m honored. Actually it’s a bit embarrassing compared to your beautiful drawings. At least I have no where to go but up!
I love it!
Meta-attention!
Ssshhhhhh! Don’t tell anybody my secret! Blast!
Haha. Now those beer pong comics are genius.
Haha, nice work.
You got my attention.
Posting comments on others blogs with a link your url works too.
-sob
xkcd.com – the ultimate sh!tty webcomic
Oh yes. I can only dream of brilliance like xkcd.com.
You should become a full-time comic artist. Those drawings are brilliant!
I enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing your post work flow.
Well… it got you this much attention which isn’t bad at all. Now, if you click on my link you’ll get through to a site which has nothing interesting or useful on it.
and that’s my way of getting online attention…
Duncan,
After that how could I resist clicking? That page actually has some pretty good advice.
Funny as hell!
But where’s Digg.com button for me to tag it?

Oh! Bush’s face with the kitten… my favorite. More, please.
Very clever!
From Anna Nicole Smith, to Don Imus, to Rosie ODonnoll, even Bush dancing with savage Watusis or whatever….
Attention is the new black, or orange.
I go with Seth Godin’s ideology: just be Astonishing in how you solve problems for customers. That’ll do it.
;^)
Nice!
[...] How to increase your blog traffic Not my idea but too funny and creative to not rip off| original is here [...]
Well, you have traffic now! Neatorama is running a thing on this post. That’s how I got here. Congrats!! Enjoy the traffic and keep blogging!
Tsk tsk tsk.
Now get back to work!!
Oh wait… that is your work?!?!

A riot. Thanks for making my day.
My pleasure. Thanks for making mine.

Every once in a while, I run across something that makes me say “Gee, I wish I thought of that.” This is one of those times. Excellent work.
Thank you, Plebian. That’s a wonderful compliment.
I accidentally got attention by posting cute pictures of animals AND linking to the Public Radio Talent Quest web site. But a cat’s gotta do what he can to make it in this digital world.
[...] Ways to get traffic. Brainstorming als Comic, welche die allenorts immer wieder gestellte Frage ergründet: Wie zur Hölle komme ich an Besucher für meinen Blog?! [...]
…amd I “stumbled.upon” it. Excellent! But will it stop working now? – You have found something good => you get imitators (the sincerest form of flattery) => it becomes a cliche =>works no more
Hi John
Wonderful post. I love it.. brings a HUGE Smile to my face when I read this..
I’m new to the Blogosphere and started blogging recently. Never knew there’s so much to learn and in this post, I’ve learnt something new from you regarding blogging
Cheers

Dang it! I could feel the punchline coming just as I was scrolling down.
Now my brain is working feverishly to out do you!… wish I had something ready.
Of course, you managed the ultimate here – you got all the trends in here while dissing them.
I don’t think Scott Adams has much to worry about, but you do have that certain scrap-paper-fresh something, John.
Wish I had known it was a joke before I used it as a checklist! LOL – nice work. And if you think thats poorly drawn, you haven’t seem me put lead to paper.

I would like some attention. Perhaps posting on this article would work. Or lighting myself on fire in the street with a pile of children’s drawing (errr…”Web Cartoons”).
