lessan.info/pixels – photoblog

I have started a photoblog:

lessan.info/pixels

A photoblog is a blog whose primary content is photographs, i.e. the emphasis is on the photography not the text. There are tens of thousands of these photoblogs out there, as you can see at photoblogs.org (check it out, some of the featured photoblogs are great!).

The idea, at least the one I will be using, is that you post just the one featured photograph on the main front page, with links to archives of previous posts. There may be a brief description of the photograph below it. I’m aiming to post at least one photo a week, and at this stage it will be photos of food, mostly.

One could argue that this blog is a photoblog, but I never really meant it to be so it will change over time.

Google Analytics

Inspired by Shingo’s post, here is a summary of the statistics for this website, from my Google Analytics account (which I’ve had for the last month or so):

A word of warning about the stats – there are a lot of automated services out there that will visit websites on a regular basis, e.g. googlebot, yahoo slurp, msnbot, etc. and although Google Analytics tries to filter these out there is no guarantee it will.

Also, there are a lot of spammers that visit blogs and post comments with advertising links. These spammers sometimes use proxies in different parts of the world, so don’t get too excited about that visit from Uruguay or Ecuador or some other exotic place, it is most probably a proxy in that country for an automated spamming service.

Linked galleries

In the last few posts, only one photo from each event is included. The one photo, however, is a link to a gallery of photos for that event. It helps especially when there are lots of photos, like with the recent weddings.

Images normally have a grey border:

An image which links to it’s gallery has a blue border:
