So far the site has grown (incrementally) every day. About 280 people viewed Boostpost today, which is up from 200 yesterday. I'm looking at it as a good sign...it is not being totally ignored.
A couple of things changed today: now the link to See a Boostpage takes you to an entry screen where you can type any URL (or choose one of the 2 pre-fill urls) to see the boostpage.
And a minor defect in the Contact form prevented the form input from being saved properly. Fortunately, in reviewing the page stats, there has not been any activity in the contact form so far.
Another minor development was that I submitted Boostpost to DMOZ.org. Hirtorically, DMOZ has been good for a few (~50) visitors a day. The category was link popularity. I have this sneaking suspicion there will be a reluctance to include Boostpost...but if you think about it, link popularity is exactly what Boostpost shows. Its the perfect category for Boostpost. I only make this suggestion because there are no other services like addthis, sharethis, or addtoany in DMOZ. Maybe they never tried to get added, but I doubt it. DMOZ is fantastic...virtually every SEO reference on the web recommends you at least try to get listed there. And from my experience, I can definitely vouch for it.
Next project for Boostpost is a firefox addon. No promises on when (if?) it will be complete. But without question, that's another gimme in terms of perfect fit. And you know, the overwhelming traffic I'm seeing is from firefox browsers....maybe I'm out of the loop, but that is very different from any other work I've done in the past. Maybe Boostpost has some horrible defect with IE? Geez, I hope not...
