Problem With Social Bookmarking

The problem with social networking sites is that you tag articles, but the links do not count when Google does its page rank calculations.  I have sometimes seen a digg and readit in my list of links, but I’ve never seen del.icio.us. Technorati is always in the links. I listed 41 sites that are proven to generate a ‘legit’ inbound link from Google. Whether the value is 100% or not is impossible to tell.

I did research on several sites. One was www.marshable.com a site with 1.7 million inbound links…of which Google only recognized 609.

One thing that many people do not know about link building is that older links are dropped, meaning that a website should try to add about 100 new links every month, if they want to stay at the top of the searches. Yes, this can be time consuming (100 links x about 3min per link if doing it like an SEM pro, no breaks = 5 hours. In reality, I find that IF I just worked on one URL at a time, it would take closer to 20 hours)

I like it because I can quickly download the cvs file into by bookkeeping at the end of the year and my books are 80% finished.

My husband went to withdraw money from his local bank, using my Paypal access card and tried to withdraw too much. Paypal immediately locked the account. I had to re-activate it from my account. This is perfect for me as I often have a few thousand dollars in the account and I don’t want to be robbed, either by hackers or muggers.

I have heard a lot of complaints because it is not a bank. It is not governed by any federal laws. They do (more…)

Increase Technorati Rank

What is Technorati authority? It is the number of blogs that link to your website in the last six months. Many new blogmasters believe they can increase their Technorati rank by linking dozens of times between different blogs. This doesn’t work. Technorati only gives 1 to each blog linking – not the number of links. [...]

Eliminate Toxic Communication

A new buzz word entered the business world a few years ago, toxic communication. We use to believe that venting emotions, gossip, casual talk about the competition, or using our words as a weapon, were harmless, victimless.
