Joe, what happened to your blog????

Ok my blog is back..
But I moved it. Here is what happened. Friend of mine wanted to get a birthday gift. So he spent like 10 dollars on some traffic to my site and tube channel. Which I told him before was a waste, but he meant weal.

So got a few hits on my blogger site, no problem. However they were supposed to send viewer traffic to my youtube channel. Instead they spammed 200 views to each video. Which would have set you tubes view count police into an uproar. So when I seen what happened a few weekends back, instead of trying to work it out with Youtube which I know would fail. And I had like 3 accounts linked to it that would have got banned as well. I just backed up everything and cleaned house before they caught wind of what happened.

So week and half later, I am still re uploading videos. LOL Sad as it was just starting to pick up traffic.

However I look at this as a good thing. One I never wanted a written blog to start with and two this will allow me to focus more on the youtube channel and blog from it.

So here is the new address Joe Jackson - YouTube
Facebook is www.facebook.com/groups/exodistphotography
DeviantART is JoeWJacksonJr (Joe Jackson) on deviantART
Twitter is still @ExodistPhoto

I hate that I lost 30 subscribers and about 5000 total views. But now that I am not trying to work two blogs as one, this will give me more time to actually take photos and focus just on video blogging.
