    My paintball blog was featured on G4TV's "Attack of the Show".

    It's actually old news, but I couldn't get a hold of the actual video until now. It was originally aired in April.

    I thought it was really cool to see and hear them talk about my site, especially since I pick up some of my tips on building sites here at DP. They say "these guys" when in fact, I'm the only one that runs the site :).

    Watch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=do1hYAKkWnk

    It literally happened out of nowhere. In fact, one of my very own forum members brought it to my attention. There really isn't anything super special about my site other than good content. So, if you have good content, keep your eyes open on shows like these :cool:.

    I definitely saw a huge spike in traffic back when it aired. It's leveled off since then. The traffic wasn't very targeted, so that's probably why it died off in time.

    Quality content + a decent marketing marketing strategy = a successful website.

    I had a site which appeared on techTV back in the day. Sarah Lane put it on her 'gems of the internet' part of the show and proceeded to mock my site for 5 minutes.
