    What is the best Article spinner these days?

    Spinner Chief may not look as good in the UI or their web design, but the actual spinning and thesaurus, etc, puts the others to shame, and even has a free version that includes all of the batch processing, sentence and paragraph spinning. A one time fee to get the Elite version unlocks...

    Why Does Google Seem to Randomly Sandbox New Pages From Ranking?

    This is interesting. It's been getting very few impressions for the main term recently, but no clicks. It's almost like the old honeymoon phase to get some metrics and that makes or breaks the ranking. I don't think that's what has happened here though, because this post should, without...

    Why Does Google Seem to Randomly Sandbox New Pages From Ranking?

    It was last cached yesterday. I haven't checked the crawl rate but that shows they're crawling it regularly. It's getting 10-20 views per day right now on long tails. The big spike was a traffic leak to it to get it some traction. I just double checked the optimization and it's definitely...

    All your files are belong to us. [Bringing Remote Files locally]

    I'm worried less about Google files than I am files from ad networks. Google is fast and reliable, never had them blocking rendering from fonts, analytics, or jquery. What all kind of files would this work on? I can't see it working for ad networks but that'd be amazing. How frequently...

    Why Does Google Seem to Randomly Sandbox New Pages From Ranking?

    I published some content a couple of months ago that is better than everything in the top 10 by far. I expected to see my post jump into the top 10 immediately by the next day, or at least in the top 50 and slowly creep to the top. But it's been around 7 weeks and all it's doing is picking...

    SERPWoo Podcast Anyone?

    That's true about licensing ideas. I forget about that, especially once you've protected your idea with a patent. Execution "realizes" ideas, but it's also akin to trying to protect your idea by staying ahead of the competition, instead of legally protecting yourself and not having to worry...

    How did this go? November 3rd came and went. Any good presentations or actionable info released? How were the after parties and all that?

    Is There Any Use for Web 2.0 Sites in the Current SEO Landscape?

    Is anyone still doing anything with Web 2.0's? Using them as parasites for spam, or even using them s mini-PBN sites for a legit site? I have this wish that years ago I'd had built a network of 100 of them and randomly interlinked them on the blog rolls like they all do with each other, and...

    Cash to Cash Flow: Do Not Be Afraid to Reinvest Into Marketing!

    In this same vein of thinking, have any of you ever taken a business loan for a capital injection? Of course I don't mean taking a stupid risk on an unproven concept. But say you have a site making $2,000 a month, but your living expenses are around $2,000 a month. Would it be dumb to take...

    A Site Abandoned, Domain Dropped & Now Renewed Again. Happy Ending???

    I've seen this work too, but I see those pages tank when Google does one of their offline updates. So you could definitely push another version of it right back in there. For posts that have staying power, I'm seeing keyword densities of less than even 0.50% working better. If I'm trying to...

    The best tools for productivity

    Trello keeps me organized in the big picture, but on the day to day I live out of spreadsheets and text files to keep quick notes. I don't do time tracking and time boxing any more. It just pressures me. I liked it at first because it gamified work, but then it became a problem of not...

    Outreach Campaign - Question About Links?

    Yes, for the most part. Sites like Medium are open for registration and anyone can post. Because it's user generated content, all of the links are nofollow, meaning they don't pass page rank. They might pass some trust, anchor text, relevancy, and a little benefit, but they don't pass power...

    What's Your Thoughts on Amazon Key & Letting Random Delivery People Open Your Front Door?

    Cryptocurrency

    I saw Bitcoin hit $4,400. Is that the new record? Anyone liquidating? Is it hard to find buyers at the peak?

    Hustler's Movies

    For being a comedy show, Silicon Valley is exciting. I just finished season 1 and watching the story grow (unrealistically) but seeing normal grinders find big success is great. Getting some insight into the startup culture is cool too. They introduce the viewer to a lot of jargon and...

    How much would you pay for this domain

    An opportunist! Good for him, but for every blogger that realizes what they have, there's thousands of others who don't. I bet you can find a deal that good for 1/20th of the cost, at the cost of hunting and offering and losing time.

    Time to first byte - Fine tuning?

    I thought the TTFB entirely hinged on the server? Using a CDN is just offloading this to another server. If this is true then caching won't help unless it's on a CDN. I went from shared hosting to a VPS on a much better server by a company that seemed to care about performance and it made a...

    Question About Personas

    There's something about models giving a release for being used in that way. Some give the release and some don't. Here's Getty Images release. You can probably find one for Shutterstock and see exactly what they models are signing. But it needs to be explicit or there's wiggle room. Getty's...

    Day: 2 Media and Entertainment vertical

    I know you didn't ask, but: "The M & E industry includes V.R., book publishing, TV, and more." IMO, That's way too much work for one person to tackle and too scattered for fans. You'd need a lot of staff for that to be viable. Entertainment like celebrity gossip and TV show happenings and...

    Day: 2 Media and Entertainment vertical

    It all depends on how you define it. You've chosen to bundle Media and Entertainment together. I wouldn't. Yeah, Virtual Reality could be argued as its own vertical, or it could be a niche within the Gaming vertical. Think more flexibly. I remember Day 1 specifically says: We're not...
