Whenever you write a post on a blog or an article on a website, you want people to read it and hope that they find it interesting.
\nRecently there has been a post on here that has proved to be quite popular.
\nBut not for the reason I would have expected!<\/p>\n
Last year I wrote about a local District who were being advised not to parade on St. George’s Day carrying the English and Union flags (read it here<\/a>). And to illustrate I had pictures of both the flags taken from a site which had pictures of national flags available to download free of charge and without copyright. Sadly this site seems to have disappeared now.<\/p>\n However, due to England being in the World Cup (yawn – sorry can’t be doing with football, cricket is more of my thing!), whenever people are looking for the England flag, the search engines are sending them to me! It’s nice to see the blog’s stats on the up, but sadly people are not stopping to read about Scouting \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n Also interesting is the fact that my Group’s site is getting quite a lot of hits on the post I made which includes a video on how to tie a friendship knot (see here<\/a>). Again it’s the search engines sending people towards it and because people are ‘Scouty’ in their outlook (why else would the be searching how to tie a friendship knot?) they are looking at what my Group gets up to.<\/p>\n However, I’ve had to update the post as people think my Group has made the video and we didn’t! I don’t want to take credit for something that’s not ours!<\/p>\n Luckily I found out who did, so if you look at the video, please take a look at the site of the 3rd Ware Scout Group<\/a> and tell them how helpful their video is!<\/p>\n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Whenever you write a post on a blog or an article on a website, you want people to read it and hope that they find it interesting.
