So, finally…Matt Cutts reveals how to rank #1 in Google. (This is a very funny video, but of course, it’s not serious–it’s just a mash-up.) I thought folks would enjoy watching it though. ...
[Continue Reading...]I thought it might be fun to write about how to do an article exchange, because I think a lot of people are doing it wrong. Today I received the following email: Hello, I saw your website(example.org), I will be interested exchange articles with you , let me know if interested.

[Continue Reading...]Update May 13, 2012–I’m not currently accepting new clients for poker website reviews. Poker website reviews seem to be an in-demand product offering. By that, I mean that I’ve had multiple inquiries about what services I offer, and I’ve decided to start offering poker website reviews as a service. (And honestly, I’m not going to limit myself to just reviewing poker w...
[Continue Reading...]Most people use a keyword tool. External seems to be the most commonly used keyword tool, but I prefer to use internal keyword tools. What’s the difference? Your definition is probably different from mine. I think that an external keyword tool is a tool that uses information from someplace other than your website.

[Continue Reading...]Here’s my KeywordStrategy.org review. It’s not going to be as detailed as Michael Martinez’s review of KeywordStrategy.org, but I think it will provide a slightly different perspective.

I’m most familiar with this question from the perspective of a poker affiliate, but I can see how a poker player might be interested in the answer to this question too. It’s been my experience that most poker sites have a clause in their terms and conditions that allows them to change their terms and conditio...
[Continue Reading...]This post contrasting poker traffic and poker rankings was inspired by and is partially a response to Fraser’s post at Keyword Strategy, Chase Traffic, Not Rankings. In his post, Fraser suggests that most webmasters would make more money if they focused on chasing traffic instead of chasing rankings. The way to do that, he suggests, is to focus on adding content to your site rather than focu...
[Continue Reading...]I’ve been meaning to review Best of the Web for quite a while. I’ve been submitting sites to the Best of the Web directory for years now, and I have some ideas about how valuable their website directory is. In the interest of full disclosure, I am an affiliate, and if you use any of the links in this review to submit a site to their directory, I’ll receive a small commission. Th...
[Continue Reading...]Why Your Gambling Affiliate Program Sucks: A Webmasters POV This article was written by Roger from Casinosites.com Here I’m going to talk a little bit about our “gaming partners” and why they’ve really sucked lately. This is kind of a spin off of articles you’ve probably read such as “why your link exchange emails suck”. For the sake of this article I’m going to refer to us as t...
[Continue Reading...]How to Launch a Poker Forum Network If you want to create some sites which generate their own content and links, then you should think about launching a poker forum network. It doesn’t (in fact it shouldn’t be) a large network. It should be a small network of 3 or 4 poker forums that can all stand on their own.
