User Tracking Isn’t So Bad

Digg This

There has been much privacy broohaha for the past years about privacy and user tracking. Specifically how ad companies will “track” users across websites.
This, I think, has mostly been overblown, and really, is a good thing, not a bad thing.
I’m taking my wife to Vegas this Spring and these past two weeks I’ve been […]

Microsoft offers to buy Yahoo for 44b

Digg This

Read it up here.
Honestly, I don’t understand this move.
Yahoo sucks. Their search engine sucks, their advertising service sucks. Who here doesn’t think Microsoft Adcenter is better than Yahoo Search Marketing? I believe until just very recently YSM didn’t even allow you to opt out of their syndicated results, so to advertise on their search results […]

My New Nutrition Site

Digg This

I finally have something to blog about, after awhile of not getting any inspiration. I’ve finally launched a new site (more or less).
Nutriquiz.com a nutrition quiz site.
I am really into nutrition, both as I like to cook and I like to look good naked. So I’ve been “into” nutrition for awhile and was hit with […]

Another Day, Another Death Threat

When I asked what I should blog about one person mentioned finding programmers, so I’ll talk about that a little in this post.

Digg This

I’ve had a hard time recently thinking of things to blog about.

Why Build 1 Site, When you can Build 2?

Digg This

Horizontal expansion in your niche is a very good thing. So good of a thing that you might as well do it from the get go. Have a neat idea for a site? Great, build it and a related site at the same time. Cross promote, cross link, and you’ll do better.
I’ve talked about […]

SEO Guide PDF Available

Digg This

Just a quick headsup that my SEO Guide is now available in pdf form. It is only available to registered forum members though, so you will need to register to download it. Registration is free of course.

Various Google Updates

Digg This

The Googleplex has been buzzing with lots of little busy bees so far this week.
Adwords advertisers now can see performance data for individual sites in the content network (Adsense) and then exclude the bad ones and or do site targetted ads on the good ones. This should, hopefully, benefit quality Adsense advertisers (most of […]

Two mistakes made by wannabe website publishers

Digg This
