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. I can’t think of anything more mind numbingly tedious, not to mention soul destroying, than sending out […]

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.

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.

If it’s not a Pagerank 4 or higher, it’s worthless.
You’d be suprised at some of the answers I get to questions I post on the webuildpages.com contact form. A few days ago one guy asked me how many links we can get in an hour….needless to say, what he was seeking, we’re not selling. Yesterday someone filled our our form stating that he was […]
