Blackhat Fish

Blackhat Fish.Just to test some seo skills by trying to rank in google for “blackhat fish”. Checking the term in google with quotes yields one result. This is actually sponsored by Shouting Zone Community to rank a term in 18 days. Some advantages if google indexed your blog post or content fast by the time you publish the post.

An seo experiment for blackhat fish in 18 30 days is possible without dropping in thousand of links that can trigger the big G to flag it and be in penalty. This actually happened to one of my blog (just for experiment), dropping in thousand of links in just few days can really hurt your ranking if your site or blog is new to them unlike those news sites or authority sites that can easily gain backlinks for their news.

The question is how can you be creative to attract other sites to link to you. Some suggestion would be a very good content that can easily caught an attention of media, that is one. Secondly, a cool or killer design can be considered a link bait by attracting web design oriented blogs and authority sites to be listed. Third, create a controversial content (be sure you have reserves to back it up).

Microsoft dropped its unsolicited bid to Yahoo

It is all over the news about Microsoft dropping their bid to Yahoo for $42.3 Billion or $31 per share. Press release have be out for both big gunners about the dismantled deal.

On Yahoo News.

Microsoft Corp. withdrew its $42.3 billion bid to buy Yahoo Inc. on Saturday, scrapping an attempt to snap up the tarnished Internet icon in hopes of toppling online search and advertising leader Google Inc.
ADVERTISEMENT

The decision to walk away from the deal came after last-ditch efforts to negotiate a mutually acceptable sale price proved unsuccessful.But Yahoo’s board demanded at least $53 billion, or $37 per share, according to Ballmer. That would have been nearly double Yahoo’s stock price of $19.18 at the time Microsoft first made its bid a little over three months ago

What do you think? I know someone who is happy with this turnaround! You know who? Google!!!!

Slowly depleting adsense ads

If you will notice on the sidebar, I have removed google ads to replace other network serving ads. Slowly depleting those adsense ads on this blog. It is seems not worth anymore and cannot sustain what this blog is generating through adsense ads due to server fees and maintenance.

I am trying out some ad serving network and check how effective or calculating the difference in terms of revenue this blog can get without including adsense. Though I am still running adsense on other sites and still generating enough to sustain all of my sites, in the end it might migrate to others who can provide the sustainability of all my sites and not from my own benefit.

Te only drawback is the effort I am placing on all the sites, but that is not important now since I just enjoy having a site checking what people are searching and how can we improve it.

Pagerank Update

Google rolled out again its pagerank system to most of their data centers including the toolbar. This blog just got lowered from its previous PR of 4 to PR3. History comes when this was PR0 -> PR2->PR5->PR3-PR4-PR3. Been on the ups and down on this blog regarding PR. But not is not in question for me now. The question lies on how much traffic are you receiving even if you have this low PR.

But some of my internal pages have their PR ranked up. My PR 0 sites went up on the range of PR3 to PR5 and some with already have PR dropped by -1 including this blog.

So we need again links pointing to us to gain that search engine trust again on this search engine optimization blog. Oh no, not for PR, but we need traffic, so best case is to create content.
