Thanks for our quick startup

Nov 29, 2006 — When we began our new sites this September, we didn’t expect them to grow in popularity and traffic like they have.

Thanks to all those who visit and help us grow in traffic volume.
That means a lot; that we are filling a need. It means we are doing something right, too, to attract so many new visitors.

To our surprise, Measurementmedia.com has grown the most quickly. It is nearly at the traffic rating that it took TempSensor.net almost two years to reach. Measurement Databases (MeasurementDB.com) is growing at about half that rate, but still much faster than expected.

We are still working on programming to get MeasureNEWS.com up to snuff. That’s a little more time-consuming than we had figured and it is effectively non-functioning.

The consolation is that TempSensor.net is now one of the leading Web sources for Temperature Sensor News and is quoted regularly in Google Alerts for temperature sensors as well as making it to the first page of Google searches for “temperature sensors” and related search terms.

MeasurementDevices.com continues to grow rapidly and get referred to in various alerts, too. It looks like the removal of irksome ads have helped greatly.

Thanks again for visiting and your help.

Don’t be shy, submissions and comments are gratefully and thoughtfully accepted.



Technorati Claim for MeasurementBlog

Nov 2, 2006 — We are joining Technorati by claiming our blog. This is something new to us, but evidently a great way to increase knowledge about a blog. Let’s see!



October Notes

Oct 7, 2006 — It’s been about one month since we kicked off the new sites. MeasureNEWS.com is not quite ready yet, but test files are there for our guys to use as programming samples. All in all, things are running pretty smoothly except for some strange hits that get reported as “Hacker Attempts’.

There appears to be some sort of interaction between the scripts on several of the sites and some repetitive programs (up to a few thousand attempts in less than an hour). We think there may be spiders attempting to download pages with Urchin JS code on them. We are investigating several different solutions at once; a surprise advantage to having multiple sites.

If your spider is getting hung up on one or more of our sites, or you find that your spider can no longer access our sites, send an email or post a note here. All posts are now allowed to submit, except for obnious content, and all are reviewed for appropriateness (like all our sites) prior to publishing.



RSS Newsfeeds for Measurement Devices and Measurements

Sept 13, 2006 — A group of news RSS news feeds have joined the original two published by Temperatures.com, Inc., MeasurementDevices.com and TempSensor.net and the total measurement news site, MeasureNEWS.com, introduced in April 2006.

The new feeds are:

MeasurementMedia.com,with focus on Meetings, Standards, Publications, Education and Training.

MeasurementDB.com provides growing databases of both measurement device technology information available on the Web, and also Technology-related links and News of Research & Development in the many measurements fields.
The basic rationale for so many sites is that there is a different focus for each and the topics are spread around among these sites and newsfeeds to better serve the wide range of interests of our visitors.

MeasureNEWS.com, TempSensor.net and MeasurementDevices.com, are mainly focused on just the commercial and news aspects of measurement. The latter two sites are the locus for news of new products, exhibitions, trade associations and vendors of various measurement devices and related subjects.

We hope you find these feeds useful and we welcome your feedback through this blog.

NOTE: These newsfeed links are in process of being added to our permanent blogroll.
