Losing some weight
by Volker Weber
As I said a couple of days ago, traffic is going through the roof. Before I hit my traffic limit beyond which it gets really expensive, I have to cut some corners. As a side note: I live in a flat unlike many of my friends who own houses. Unlike them, I know how to get rid of stuff that I don't need any more. :-)
First thing I did was to advise search engine spiders not to read the images directory. Second thing was cutting down the links to archives, now at 5 instead of 20. Third was reducing the size of the front page from 25 postings down to 12. That however means you have to come back more often, which probably won't happen. Since the front page does not run as long any more, I also cut down the blogroll to 50 entries and did the same for the referrers. Finally I decided to post less pictures where it does not make any sense.
Now, let's see how that works over the next weeks.
