If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
The site that I work on during the day recently got a major traffic boost after one of its sister sites was linked to on Slashdot. There was a highly placed link to the site on the sister page, which resulted in a huge traffic boost (and a conversion rate of about 75 percent — simply awesome).
While getting Slashdotted can do a lot for meeting numbers goals — the traffic is obviously not consistent. I've previously written about ways to retain visitors from a Slashdot boost (with the number one way also easiest way to retain surfers in general), and it's important to know just what one of those pickups can do for your traffic and RSS feed.
