A very interesting thing happened to my blog yesterday. I notice that my traffic shot up like a rocket. I’ve since been trying to see why this was and it is because of Oprah Winfrey. Yesterday (7/1/2008), Oprah aired a rerun episode with Yvette Cade in it. I wrote an article about Yvette Cade a while back and that article brought in over 150 visitors alone on Google.
So first and foremost, thanks Oprah for the extra traffic to my blog. I hope the readers of my blog are able to get the information they need and also find other interesting information to read about. You can click on the categories on the left to see my blog entries. Or search in the box at the top left. For those of you wanting to find the story of Yvette Cade on Oprah, you can use the link here.
This got me thinking about the power day time television really has, particularly Oprah Winfrey and Tyra Banks. A light bulb went off in my head. How about expounding on topics that popular talk show hosts talk about and linking to their information? Seems worth a try to me! I will give it a shot and we’ll see what happens. Plus it will give me more to write about.
I wrote about Yvette Cade earlier because her story is truly inspiring. She is an optimistic and positive woman. I am proud to have her on my blog. I know there is much we can all learn from her. As a woman, set on fire by her estranged and ex husband, Yvette is a survivor. I am thankful to know her story.
