The Inkwell

AlphaInventions.com is crazy. Crazy in a good way! Let me preface this by saying I am not being paid to say this, I’m not one of those people who blogs for marketers. I spent the last couple hours trying to figure out what AlphaInventions is, how it works and what the point of it is.

I still can’t answer those questions. So I’ll just tell you how it all went down.

I was looking at the traffic stats for my personal blog and I saw an incoming link from a place called alphainventions.com . It was an unfamiliar domain so I clicked on the link to see where it took me.

This guy named Cheru has figured out a way to drive traffic to hundreds of different blogs. I have no idea how he got the link to my blog, but after Googling alphainventions.com I gathered that it’s not a scam or bot. It allows bloggers to enter their URL and they drive traffic to the site.

I tried it. I entered the URL for one of my blogs and within minutes I went from those pathetic Saturday single digit hits to 83 hits. I don’t get it, but I like it. I will continue to use it to promote my blogs.
