I use Backblaze as a cloud back-up and occasional time machine back-ups. Last year I used Carbonite but it consumed to many resources on my machine.

^ I had a few anti Panda ideas, I will share a few here.... 1. Non paid listings, on these I will include snippets of other listings, also will pull in my blog posts and my twitter feed. This is a win - win as business owners do not want to share their listing with competitors, when they upgrade...

The way I am doing things is either buying business data or paying for a researcher on Odesk. Then on my site I have a "claim listing" badge where the actual businesses listings. I will be emailing them over time to encourage them to claim their listing. Once I have finished cleaning up my...

You need to find untapped niches and go in hard, as the @Anton @ Uberaff says, you will need content. My main site is a directory, but I'm adding a lot of extra value on top of just a directory, also looking to have mobile apps built. People that say they are dead you don't need to listen to...

One other thing I am adding to my site which I didn't see mentioned, which I think help adds to the "brand" aspect is to add a "Careers" page. You can add a little about your company and say that you do not have any open positions but feel free to submit your CV. It helps give the impression of...

I have not really dug in to Serpwoo yet, I should as it CCarters beast. I'm dabbling with a few larger solutions in the day job but they are too clunky for my needs.

Magento scales to a point, but a real nightmare from an SEO / speed optimisation perspective.

I had a site that got Google Panda and I just left it alone, then about a year later it recovered very nicely without me doing anything. I should not probably go over the site and do some work to safeguard against another Panda occurrence.

I didn't realise you were anything to do with SERPwoo until just now. So, I guess you have some good insights with these things. I will take another look at SERPwoo and give you my thoughts if you would like. AWRcloud maybe clowns, I have found their UI to be one of the better points from...

I respect your views @CCarter I really do. I'd love to get the UI of something like AWRcloud with a little more reliability perhaps and more keywords for the money. I think they have the best UI I have seen yet, they have not ventures in to too many other areas like backlinks analysis and...

I'm looking for some form of guidance on what an optimal/realistic page speed is. I don't trust what Google Page Speed things says, although some of the info they provide is useful. The reason for asking is that I had a chat with our head of development and he was asking me what should we aim...

I think you missed my point, or that is how I am reading, excuse me if I got that wrong. When I am looking for a keyword ranking tool, I'm looking for a keyword ranking tool and not a tool that does a lot of other things half well at the expense of the UI. I am finding it hard to find a...

The problem I am finding is that with the sites that have the better UI the cost per keyword is too expensive, a lot of these sites have rushed to make a lot of bells and whistles that are not needed. I want a dedicated tool for keyword tracking, I don't want backlink analysis or other stuff as...

Thankfully we are not seeing that here, but I have seen that in other forums.

You are right. Sleep is very important to productivity and even more important for health!

Some really good tips here, thanks everyone!

Thanks for this, very good input. Any ideas on where I should look to get the scraper/spinner/poster bot set-up?

I tried Fiverr but got nothing but crap as you say, I'm looking to for someone who knows their shit but does not charge silly money!

Sorry for the questions, but the advice I get here is so great, better than beer!!! I have some niche sites and with at least one or two I'd like to consider launching a complimentary online community. The problem I see is that I can get this all set up rather easily, but it needs content...
