Online marketing with spiritual integrity
HUGE – hubpages will be moving all of it’s authors to their own subdomain, to counter the inpact of Panda: Source You can move all your stuff over to your own subdomain today, manually, or wait till they do it automatically. I advise moving over ASAP. The steps are simple: Log into hubpages Go to [...]

This is a post that AJ wrote on Squidu. I thought it well worth sharing with you all. So many times I see answers to questions about how to get traffic that tell people to go and comment on other people’s lenses. Yes, DO participate in the community. Yes, go visit and comment but at [...]

Loads of people relied on lensroll as a quick and easy way to give their own lenses links from their own lenses. In fact – some people absolutely abused the feature. With lensroll gone very soon (some time today), it’s time to replace those links. Not, as HQ suggests by using the related lenses feature. [...]

Since loading time affects (to a very small extent) how Google ranks pages and sites, it is in all of our best interests to have fast lenses. One way of speeding up lenses is to not set modules like the twitter-search module to look for new content every hour. Set it to every day. That [...]

I wrote a lens to answer that question: Why did I suddenly lose google traffic? The short answer? Probably nothing to do [...]

I’m archiving my best Squidu posts here, for future reference. Adapting slightly in view of comments made there. A recent TED video made me realize just how far we’ve come from the days when search engine results were the same for everybody. There is not much we can do about it, unfortunately, but it’s still [...]

WordPress is a great CMS to make a site with quickly and make it look good. However, like in many other CMSs, it’s not easy to get iframes or javascript included in posts and pages. Since many of the most used affiliate sites (amazon for instance) use either i-frames or javascript or both, the ability [...]

ThrivingMom shares an excellent tip on keyword optimization on her blog. She writes: Time and time again I see posts on SquidU by lensmasters asking how to get traffic to their lens. They say they worked hard on a lens but aren’t seeing any organic (search engine) traffic at all. They want to know what [...]

I’ve been watching Google for years, but this month things are different. They’re simply weird. Some of these changes are probably not new – merely new to the Dutch serps – but since they change the game of online promotion and Search Engine Optimization, I think they should be highlighted here. Two results per domain? [...]
