Links as Pennies and Old Ben Franklins.
Links as Pennies and Old Ben Franklins I was just listening to Chuck Price (Sales and Mgmt at WBP) on the phone with a prospective client. At one point he was explaining how it’s not all about the number of links that makes the difference, it’s the quality of those numbers that matters. He used […]

You Don’t Show Your Sites to Matt.
On my way home from work last night I was listening to Jim Croce’s "You Don’t mess around with Jim" and I started playing with the words, so this morning I spent a few minutes writing my rewording of this song. Now I know Matt’s over in London at SES right now, so here’s a […]

Sorry, I won’t do SEO for your new website.
A majority of the leads we get at from webuildpages.com are from "new" websites which are seeking higher rankings in Google. I don’t believe that for most new sites that they’ll see their ROI with our services for several years (but if you’ve got an old site you’ll see results from our type of SEO work "fast"). […]

Ya can’t please all the people all the time.
I guess that’s life. This morning a blogger sent me an email stating: This morning I woke up with this nasty comment on my blog with your name next to it. I deleted it immediatly and added a filter to block the N word in the future. I thought you should know in case it turns […]

Expert Link Building Can be Fun!
You could take this as a continuation of my last post about link bait. See, even from the 4 articles that I referenced that night, a few of those made statements like: Sheesh, rather you than me squire.

LinkBait alone won’t do it. You need Link Ninjas.
It seems like everywhere I go recently I’m being hit in the face with LinkBait Articles, so I’ll join the crowd, but I’ll be brief. Just today these articles were published: NickW on Linkbait 2007 on Searc Engine Land today (and Peter Da Vanzo’s Response on the v7n Blog tonight) The Yahoo Publisher Network blog blogged about […]

What to do when you’re the FROM address of someones email spam campaign.
Twice this past month I’ve got online in the morning to check my email and found hundreds of returned mail sitting in my inbox. What these are is that some clown (for lack of nastier names) has sent out a blast email where they put all types of variations before @webuildpages.com… for example [email protected] or […]
