It's pretty stupid having the first headline in your feed talking about "tomorrow" when the headlines were posted two days ago.

That is all.

First round of the 7th Annual WZ Tournament:

KB vs. Main Site staff

I'd gladly pay to watch that.

KB should be on the main site staff but they won't put him on board.

 

[Viola Moonlight]

Added stipulation - if KB wins, he becomes the staff.

Of course you can't be on their staff. That would mean having someone competent.

Killam is good. It's not his fault when he has bad leadership. When I wrote for 411, I was doing the live Raw coverage the night Rock returned. Shawn Michaels either appeared or had a message for Undertaker or HHH that night. When I posted the headline, I put The Rock as the top story. The boss there edited it to say that Shawn was there and Rock returned because "Shawn's message was by far the bigger story and I should have realized that."

By "boss" do you mean Becca?

 

[klunderbunker]

Nah. She actually has some knowledge about wrestling.

Yes. Yes it is.

Only if when he wins, he announces the new general manager as Nick Pagleeno. Queue Bischoff music.

I was going to wait to tell you, but I suppose doing it in "public" will garner me more much-needed love from forums people. As you know - but nobody else really knows - there's a good chance I'm going to be tendering resignation after WrestleMania, and leaving Wrestlezone. I might go work for Collider, which would be way better for me than WZ, and would give me the ability to actually "come out" as the senior editor of Wrestling Rumors. Should that happen, I plan on recommending you as my replacement. I will even offer to "train" you before I leave.

I laughed. Have some rep.

Killam is good.

Yeah, that's gonna be a signature quote...

Would this involve me being a reporter or just the recapper?

This would probably involve you doing whatever it is Nick wants you to do. If you want to get paid, it'd involve you doing news as well. That's what makes the donuts. Obviously I can't promise anything, but they're going to be losing me, at the same time that LaBar and Isenberg scale back. It's possible. That's as much certainty as I can give you.

Noted. So I'm guessing on WR the news people will be compensated better than I will?

 

[The 1-2-3 Killam]

On WR none of us are getting compensated for right now. Need to start generating traffic first. I'm going to be getting a small paycheck from Chris just to run it for him starting in April some time. When we start doing enough traffic to generate profit - hopefully in a few months - I guess we'll see how much there is, and how much everyone deserves at that point. I'm going to be as transparent as possible with it, because I don't want everyone thinking this is just a way to generate me an income.

 

[klunderbunker]

Yeah I knew the few months part. Any idea how things are going so far?

That was about day 3 of my first journalism class: Never use today, tomorrow or yesterday in a story or headline.

So far so good, as far as I know. I'm going to talk with Chris this weekend on how to get into the back end and look at the numbers. It's hard for me to see what's working and what isn't if I can't see progress. My current project is getting followers on Twitter, because it generates a lot of views. And of course, just keeping the website updated.

There's a widget on Wordpress that I use that keeps track of the number of views and breaks it down by individual posts and shows how people came to the site. It's probably too primitive for long term use but for now it might not be a bad way to go.

Yeah, I have that on my own wordpress based site. Not really sure how Will has the back-end set up. Just sent Chris a text about it. He's going to set me up this weekend.

 

[The 1-2-3 Killam]

Dammit. I came here to create a thread about Whose Line is It Anyways? returning to TV. Got distracted.

 

[justinsayne]

True story, I get most of my wrestling news from reading Jack Hammer's threads.

 

[The Bearded One]

That was about day 3 of my first journalism class: Never use today, tomorrow or yesterday in a story or headline.

Or in leads. That was one of the first lessons we learned.

 

[The Dragon Saga]

It was actually one of the things I learnt on my first day. Gotta love WZ's journalistic integrity.

 

[shattered dreams]

On what day did they tell you your field was dead?

Uhh, I assume/hope you're talking about Google Analytics.

Those are almost always inferior to Google Analytics.

Hopefully you're not using Wordpress for a site you expect to become large...
