There may well have been more. The above were identified through Google webmaster tools and referrals. Of course, this won’t catch those who didn’t link to us, such as C.Garvery’s Blog. If I have missed out on your post, my sincere apologies, please leave a comment and correct this omission.

130 odd - This is the number of direct referrals from Tuesday Push posts we received. That’s roughly the same amount as EWrite saw last October with their Tuesday Push. Not great, is it? An average of 5 per post. So was this worth it? Well, yes.

+1 - This is what happened our Google PageRank as per the google tool bar (from 4 to 5). Obviously I can’t say that this is due to the Tuesday Push alone. In fact I hope it isn’t, seeing as we put several hundred man-hours of time into a new version of the MyMunster.com site which went live just 10 days prior to the push. Our changes saw the google crawl rate of our site go up by a factor of 5, so this undoubtedly was a big reason behind the rating change. But the Tuesday Push surely helped. Links from over twenty reliable sources - Doesn’t google love this sort of thing?

Big thanks to Dave Kelly and Cathal Garvey who obviously put a huge amount of time into the writing of their posts. Dave even followed up with a supplementary email. These are the standards I aim for when I write a Tuesday Push.

Is it worth it? If like most small Irish businesses at the moment, you are cash poor and time-rich (relatively speaking), then this is a no-brainer. Do it for Publicity, Traffic, SEO points and for good Constructive Criticism. And remember to do it for others too.
