    Did anyone pay attention to Mark Zuckerberg getting interviewed by the Senate?

    It was weird how much they continued to emphasize how "he started Facebook by himself in his dorm room," like over and over. It led to people re-talking about how DARPA's LifeLog project, which was basically Facebook, was shut down the same day Facebook was founded. And how past senators have...

    Is Online Privacy Important?

    I honestly can't be bothered beyond using different passwords for everything and saving those in an encrypted password keeper software. I use Msecure. Other than that, I turn my webcam around when I'm not using it and I use Incognito Mode for those extra special sites. If I'm not a target...

    What was the last movie you watched? How was it?

    @senty4love, Mulholland Drive has one of the scariest scenes ever in it, when the guy in the restaurant is recounting his dream he keeps having...

    With Google Ranking Based on Topics Now, Which Search Terms Do You Track?

    @Tove, there's no way I could track 10-20 per post, because my sites are getting big. My main site has over 100 posts now, and I have others nearing 40 and 50. It'll get too pricey for me and I can't imagine all of it would be actionable data for me anyways.

    Complicating vs. Simplifying: Getting Out of the Is-ness of Things

    I'm guilty of this. Instead of choosing better food and less of it, I add exercise on. But then that becomes a problem with scheduling and my time. And when I start to get anxious about not having enough time, I do this stupid thing of adding more to my schedule in order to compound the...

    I want to post on CoinDesk and other bitcoin magazines. Does anyone know a good list?

    I'd go to the crypto subreddits and look at all of the sites that have been posted there. Most crypto sites are promoting where there's lots of people. I'd sign up to all of the crypto forums and post 10-20 times on each and then use those accounts to share articles from your site on there...

    I'm convinced that 99% of all "these" are just fake.

    Everything I've seen makes me agree. The few legit Facebook pages are getting swallowed up by other pages. People try to launch new pages off the backs of old ones by promoting on them, but the reach is so bad now, like 2-3%. You can pay to boost. Instagram is botted to death. That's not...

    Need authors/contributors in the crypto space

    Have you signed up for Steemit? You can post your own links there, and it's almost all still about Crypto, since they reward you with their own currency. But lots of crypto people are posting on there that you could message. Of course you can Google the thousands of crypto blogs and email...

    What did you get done today?

    It was Friday but I still managed to get a little done. I wrote a "best" type of article for a really low competition term. It was about 800 words, with 4 pictures, affiliate links, and one external link and one internal link. It's not the best work I've ever done but from start to finish it...

    With Google Ranking Based on Topics Now, Which Search Terms Do You Track?

    We all know that Google is still ranking based on search term optimization but also topic optimization. And since rank trackers give you a limit on the number of terms you can track, how do you deal with it? Like, today I was working on a post. Let's say the main term was "best football...

    Commenting service recommendation?

    These two quotes have been my exact experience with buying these links. I only ever used them to try to index and power up tier 2 links. It doesn't matter what the person claims or what they charge. Manual means they manually copy and paste spun comments. Or it means they lied. Relevant...

    Optimal Number of Products to Include in Comparison Table?

    I ended up going with 3 products because the plugin I went with had a nice horizontal table they called a grid that matched what I had pictured in my head. It has other formats too like @ragnar said, so I can create more affiliate tags to test which do the best. I can add different ones to the...

    What’s the difference between a “one page guide” focused site vs an authority site?

    There's always a fine balance with these sites. They take a ton of information and strip all the fat so it's only 100% gold nuggets. That's the main value, is that it's condensed for the user, just add water. But I see that in listicles too. I see it in videos too. But it never attracts the...

    What other forums do you find valuable?

    Any time I see someone defending a paywall on a community, all I can think of is Scientology. You know that the person talking knows it's crock of crap and they got taken for a ride, but it's far too late to admit it because too much money has been invested (lost). So they defend the paywall...

    Optimal Number of Products to Include in Comparison Table?

    What say ye? I'm building yet another site and started thinking about the best number of products to include on the comparison tables. I'm going for the side-by-side style where each product takes up a whole column, so I can't have more than 5 anyways. But I think 5 should be the max. As a...

    Newbie Question(s) so dumb, you're afraid to even ask!

    My feeling on those non-sanctioned marketplaces are their offers are usually bloated and are soon to be unsupported. If it included Graphic River id get a lot of use out it though.

    What was the last movie you watched? How was it?

    Yeah, that looks great. There's another one coming that's more scifi but still seems to have horror elements. It's called Annihilation and here's the trailer: Same person who did Ex-Machina, so you know it'll be intellectual and challenging, but well produced and directed.

    Need Advice: 'Interested in Selling Your Website?' Fishing for Info

    I don't think you can protect yourself from being taken. They have all of the leverage. They don't need your site, but they want it. That's a big difference. If they absolutely had to have you you'd still have the lead agreement going. I agree with @coredev, you've been talking about this...
