Search Engine Optimization
Sunday, April 30, 2006 Comments
Well, I’ve put a lot of effort into search engine optimization of the website for my business. For those familiar with SEO, you may know of something called the sandbox effect where new websites are effectively “ignored” for a certain period of time ranging from 6-9 months, sometimes less, sometimes more. While bigger search engines like Google and Yahoo tend to have longer sandbox terms, MSN seems to have a less strict sandbox.
I was just doing routine checks on certain keywords and my business website is listed on the first page of results on MSN for major keywords related to my market! Needless to say I was quite happy with that, given the fact that the website has only been up for 2 months and it’s now on the first page of the MSN search engine result pages (SERPs) for keywords I’ve targeted.
No Academic Motivation Left
Friday, April 14, 2006 Comments (3)
Wow, since Spring Break my motivation to do school work has plummeted. I just don’t feel like doing any school work anymore. I look at my textbook and it’s just like, I don’t want to read this at all. There just doesn’t seem to be a point, at this point. I’m focusing more and more time on entrepreneurial endeavors. In under 2 months I’ll be a graduate. I can’t wait to be out of school.
V for Vendetta
Tuesday, April 4, 2006 Comments
So I watched V for Vendetta over the weekend and it was really good. As you may know, it’s produced by the same creators of The Matrix trilogy. The movie is thought provoking and a lot of the stuff alludes to what’s happening in the world today. The basic plot is that because of the global war on terror and attacks in England, English citizens eventually give up their civil liberties in the name of security.
Finally Accepted Into Google Adsense
Monday, April 3, 2006 Comments
Okay, so I finally got accepted into the Google Adsense program recently. I’ve mainly been trying to get my Stuffbox site and this site into the program but got rejected twice. The Stuffbox site got rejected primarily because before there was a membership structure and most of the site was member-only restricted. And I guess with the proliferation of content-rich blogs these days, they are more open to them. Click here to read more
Futile Comment Spam
I don’t know if you comment spammers are reading this since most of it is done with bots but you should really give up. Not one of your comment spams have gotten through. You could hit me up with 50 and it would be a matter of 2 clicks to get rid of all of it. Haven’t you noticed that it’s not working? I’m really amazed at how persistent spammers are. The more you spam this blog, the more comprehensive my filters get. So you’re basically helping my anti-spam measures become more effective. Thanks!
