Tossing free content onto Facebook for immediate gratification. I’ve been told that is dumb. Why not post on the blog and use facebook to promote it? I doubt anyone would care. But I guess it can’t hurt to keep trying to build up content on here and see if I hit critical mass. I have had a decent amount of sales off people finding this site on the googles.

This blog post makes some compelling arguments. Maybe I’ll go through facebook, mining my deeper thoughts and repost on here? This I think is the most compelling point it makes:

Blogs benefit from SEO efforts, which help pull in more traffic from Google and the other search engines. Facebook is largely not indexed, or not searched high up on the ranks without special filters to search specifically through the social network, so the content you post directly on the site is much less valuable.”

It’s 2014, let’s see how this goes. That’s a lie, I’m updating this 08/20/2020 as I go through old posts and update them to work on my new wordpress theme. Anyway, if I do blog on here and then share the posts on facebook, at least I won’t get so many timeouts for calling out rednecks and crackers.

Keep digging, WOODCOCK 🪏

Posted by WOODCOCK

After a long exile in South Texas climbing out of a nihilistic funk, Otis Woodcock has found his way back to the open skies and quiet horizons of the American prairie. Having earned an MFA from Miami University, Ohio, he left his ancestral home in southern Indiana, spending the last three decades between Louisville, Kentucky, and San Antonio, Texas, developing his Iconoclasmatic Pop Art™ practice. On this journey, an anxious recovering Catholic and cancer survivor gradually evolved into the optimistic existentialist whose work is less interested in providing answers than in questioning certainty. Today, Woodcock lives and works where the seasonal rhythms and expansive landscapes of the Midwest serve as the backdrop for an ongoing exploration of belief systems, cultural inheritance, and the subtle poetry of ordinary things.
