Spotting comment spammers and link droppers
Posted on July 31st, 2007 | Filed under blogging | 29 comments

I have an existing policy on comments on this blog, you can see it at the bottom of this post. For those too lazy to scroll down, here it is, with a link to a little rant of mine some time back.

Please do not spam or post multiple urls to your site or sites you earn from. All comments are moderated.
Your comments are your own. I reserve the right to edit anything I find objectionable. This includes the use of anchor text, links to moody stuff etc. If you don’t like these terms, then please go elsewhere, do not self promote or
promote others. Say something that adds to the conversation. Spammy me2’s and yeah I agrees aren’t welcome.

Podcast your blogs - turn your blog posts into audio files odiogo
Posted on July 23rd, 2007 | Filed under podcasting, odiogo | 23 comments

 Turn your blogs in audio MP3 files - Give your readers the option to  listen too

I’ve expressed an opinion on podcasts in the past , today I sold my soul to the big audio devil in the sky and added the odiogo WP plugin to my blog.

You’ll see a little icon at the top of my blog posts where you can listen to an mp3 file of the content.

Odiogo grabs your rss feed and converts the text into an audio file. The voice isn’t perfect of course, but nonetheless I think its a cool little extra. They also host the content meaning you will not get hit with a huge bandwidth bill from your host either.

Referral Ads by Adsense - Monetising your content with specific targetted advertisers
Posted on July 20th, 2007 | Filed under adsense | 6 comments

Referral ads by Adsense 

The other day I noticed in my adsense account that it had been ‘upgraded’ and that I had some new monetisation options.

Apparently its been live since June . I won’t say too much about what the program offers as much of it can be read over at the previous link, that said it might be useful to look at the headlines and make a little comment on each.

The question train - this one stops at SEO central
Posted on July 14th, 2007 | Filed under seo, blog promotion | 11 comments

The question train…where will your train stop?

If you have a question related to Internet marketing or SEO or social media or any related stuff, then drop me an email to watts underscore rob at hotmail dot com, and I’ll do my best to answer it.

Please don’t ask me questions in the comments. Email only please.
The type of questions I’m looking for are those that can be used to flesh out a full post.

Those that require a little bit more than a yes or no type answer :)

Blogspot domains identified as fine purveyors of Spam
Posted on July 12th, 2007 | Filed under blogging, spam, squidoo, mahalo, blogspot | 8 comments

Free content based domains are beacons for Spam

I was over at Bill Slawski’s excellent blog earlier today researching text to link proximity stuff, and stumbled across a post Microsoft Follows the Money to Find Spammers which referred to this interesting Spam research paper from Microsoft entitled: Spam Double Funnel: Connecting Web Spammers with Advertisers. For the geekazoids amongst you there’s lots of interesting snippets and observations. Bill’s already covered most of the headlines over at his blog, so I won’t regurgitate that.

Learning from your blogging mistakes - 5 things to avoid when blogging
Posted on July 11th, 2007 | Filed under blogging, meme | 25 comments

Some of your blogs will just suck bottom

About a week or so ago I decided to offer someone somewhere a free SEO review of a site they thought might need a little help.

It was a spectacular failure of a post! :D Not one person has played the game.

I thought it was a well balanced win win deal that would have stimulated a little activity and garnered some links in for me and a little stimulus for others, oh and of course a free SEO review for some random site somewhere.

Just another iphone blogpost? Yeah probably
Posted on July 6th, 2007 | Filed under iphone | 9 comments

iphone - do you want one?

iphone.jpg

Everyone is talking about the apple iphone it seems.

According to technorati there are currently

245,603 blog posts about iphone

That’s a lot of people talking about a product that’s just recently been launched.

I watched an ebay auction the other day and this iphone went for $1099.00 USD that’s like 500 quid at todays exchange rates.

So what is it about this thing? Why is it such an ‘iwant’ item?  Engadget   say that its been one of the most hyped items of 2007. Robert Scoble is seemingly amazed reporting how stores in SF are sold out.

John Chow - Google penalty, yet still earns 12k for June
Posted on July 4th, 2007 | Filed under john chow | 15 comments

John Chow has a Google Penalty 

John Chow published his earning stats recently for his blog

June is the start of summer. Advertising revenue generally slow down during this time. Add in the fact that Google put me in their dog house half way though the month (June 16 to be exact) and you would expect income to go down again. However, I’m happy to report that summer and Google hasn’t done much to stop my rise.

Total Blog Income For June 2007: $12,569.61

Tr0 to TR10 in 90 days - Simple plugin for blog measurement and motivation
Posted on July 3rd, 2007 | Filed under wordpress, plugins | 9 comments

tr10forblog.gifI looked at my sidebar today and noticed I’d made it to TR10. :D

Yay me! Thanks to all those who have commented, without them I’d still be on TR0.

I’ve had the tumbleweed plugin on my blog now for about 3 months. Over that time I’ve noticed a steady increase in the comments on my posts.

Whilst this can probably be attributed to the blogs steady growth and readership and of course the fabulous quality of post and content ;) - it may nevertheless have been aided by the little fellow with the cross eyes and the number on his chest reminding me of my progress, ensuring that I worked that little bit harder to stay on track and keep a focus.

Comprehensive website review for zero monetary cost
Posted on July 1st, 2007 | Filed under blogging, seo advice, website reviews | 7 comments

Talk about your friends and help them in to the bargain!

Today I was flicking through the blogosphere in search of a little inspiration. It’s hard at times to release the old creative juices, it can get a little tiring.

I didn’t want to complain about a service or talk about the launch of some new product or service, or reference a blogger with a cool idea that I liked, or take a good look at a google algo aspect or even point to some a-lister in the hope of some little mention or other.
