While a relatively small group of Twitterers were sharing their #ramday experiences, I wrote this blog post: “What the Hell is #ramday?”. It was an attempt to jump on the coattails of the #ramday meme and vault the blog post as high as possible in Google. Christopher S Penn had a similar meme-jumping experience with Youtube and Rickrolling.
Did it work??
For a personal blog with very little traffic (5 – 10 uniques a day?) I had 406 unique visitors on Friday July 25th (aka the inaugural #ramday)!
And here are the search results in Google:
Incredibly enough, and this is testament to how great Google is as a search engine, this page highlighted above was result #51 on Friday July 25th 30 minutes after I wrote it!

You went for < 10 uniques to 406 uniques in one day? That’s incredible! I’m off to read your “What the Hell is #ramday?” posting!

There has been some residual traffic from that post, but nothing as high as the 406 uniques that day!
