Comment on Health Costs and the Competitive Edge in Business by The joys of health insurance while self-employed

The joys of health insurance while self-employed — Sat, 19 May 2012 21:59:23 +0000

[...] The latest round of political regulation won’t do much to change things, either. Big insurance companies still dominate state-limited markets, and they get a rather generous amount of room for overhead and profit cooked in to the annual premium. While the status quo is good for the insurers themselves, it doesn’t do much for the efficiency of American businesses at large. [...]

Comment on Social signals, authorship, and the post-Penguin future of Google SEO by John

I’m still new to G+ but so far I am really enjoying it! I think it will play an increasingly important role for web publishers in the near future, so hopefully I can stick with it.

Oh, and with so much Penguin panic I’d forgotten to re-include the social buttons with the new site design – and the plugin you recommended is a great way to get it done FAST. Thanks for the tip, and thanks for stopping by!

One of the comment spammers put together half a unique thought, so I figured I should pull it out of Akismet and address the question:

Hi, websitebuilding.biz I am renewed to IM and am wondering if anyone has any circumstance with what SEO sofware is working in the subvention clime since there was the archetype penguin update from google.

SEO Software does not work. Automated link building techniques have always been a bad idea, and now after Penguin it is more likely than ever to get you in to big trouble. Further, you shouldn’t be trying to get links for your bikini blog from a webmaster blog, and if you want English traffic you’re going to need some proper English in your comments & content!

Update: The dust is finally starting to settle down around here. The new template is about ready now, and it is just down to the final touches. Social sharing plugins are back, and the directories that got hit by auto-spam attacks have been permanently deleted & redirected.

Now, all that is left to do is focus on the basics like updated content, social networking, and getting the conversation started up again!

I go days without using Google+, then I will be on it for spurts at a time. I most certainly will be interesting to see how it fares a year from now.

FYI John, you should use the Social Share plugin ..http://www.searchtechword.com/2011/06/wordpress-plugin-add-twitter-facebook-google-plus-one-share/ to make sharing your articles so much easier.

Comment on Google pushes another search update by John at Website Building biz

For hosting coupons and hosting reviews, I’m seeing 50-70% exact-match domains on the front page of search. The funny thing is that the affiliate programs don’t allow this form of marketing, so the coupons being offered by these sites have been banned and just don’t work.

I’m thinking I might have gone a bit overboard in linking between the sites I own, but I’m also seeing PR0 domains that have nothing BUT a network of interlinked PR0 domains and the exact keyword match.

Oh well, time for spring cleaning anyway. We’ll see how this plays out!
