Blogging Benefits from Guy Kawasaki

Guy Kawasaki posted some stats on his 1 month blogging anniversary.  There are some interesting site stats and some potentially dangerous points since he posted his AdSense earnings which is apparently a no-no.  But these two points stick out the most for me:

8. Traffic to my web site, www.guykawasaki.com, increased from about 400 page views/day to 800-1,200 page views/day.

9. My Amazon sales rank for The Art of the Start (go ahead, I dare you to click on this link) hovered between #1,500 and #2,000 prior to the start of my blog. Currently, the sales rank hovers between #500 and #750.

Another interesting tidbit is that he uses SnipURL to track how many people click on the links.  I always thought that these services were only good for getting past mail readers breaking up lines, but I may have to start thinking about how else they can be used.
