There are a ton of sites like this on the web, and nobody ever visits one twice. You have something interesting or important to say. Sites like this are extremely rare but are what most people hope to find when they start their browsers up. They are the sites that get bookmarked. But if you haven't paid for your site, you're automatically lumped in with all the people who upload pictures of their cat and then forget about it.
Most people are boring and stupid.
That may be cruel, but it is a sad fact of life. Nobody has anything important or interesting to say. And putting up good web pages is an art that evades most people. But I'm tired of bitching about Geocities. I guess my Geocities page DID get a couple thousand visits, and at least one job came out of it.
