Stilettos and Trackbacks

I have a secret, and I want to share it with you. I did something recently that made a lot of people mad, and they probably hate me now. But hey, at least they’re talking about me. And that’s what’s important anyway. You see, when people talk about you, you get recognition. And recognition brings you traffic. New blogs, or in my case, a new blogger, needs to stir the pot a little to emotionally engage readers to induce commenting. You want to know what I’m talking about, don’t you? You know you do.

Hello, readers, we’re back with the WTF.  Apparently I’m stirring a lot of controversy… hmm.  That’s just fine.  Keep it coming, I can take it!  I actually feel just a little bit badly about this one, because Wayne seems like such a likable guy.  But, he admits it himself, he has a bad blog.

Welcome to the Weekly WTF (that stands for Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, what did you think it meant?). This is a new weekly installment of me ranting about something that sucks. By that I mean that I am going to find blogs that are downright awful and pick them apart, and at the end of my ranting, you can check out the site for yourself. At first, we’re just going to dissect random blogs. But be forewarned: in a short period of time, I will begin picking on you Real Estate bloggers too. But only if you truly deserve it. This really is a good learning experience for all of you, because you’ll get to see RSS Pieces’ primary blogging principles not being utilized in real sites, and why these principles are so important. It’s also your chance to fix your blog and make it as incredible as possible, to avoid scrutiny later.  Poshd took a similar approach when they started a series of the 50 worst sites out there. Check these out, they’re pretty terrible! I’m going to start off with a really outlandish site, because I want to ease you into this, okay? Okay.
