It seems like that's the bandwagon to follow these days. Google's doing a lot of stuff to try and "democratize" the internet, rewarding pages which are not only viewed by lots of people, but "liked" via the various approval mechanisms of social media sites. I learned a lot more about some decent, legitimate SEO tactics at http://www.profromgo.com/surviving-white-hat-seo-tactics Everything's frustrating after the recent Panda updates - you've got fewer options available as far as "purely" legit tactics go, and the grey ones are being punished harder than ever.

In each case, especially no links from networks such as BMR. However, I did some guest posting, article marketing, press releases (when PRweb.com still allowed gambling PRs,) to get some incoming links, and of course Stickyeyes build a bunch of really bad (and I mean REALLY BAD) links that could have hurt my site more than done any good.

How diverse are your backlinks, though? I know tons of people who relied on private networks like BMR were in hot water with the recent update. Do you do any article marketing? I found a bunch of good info at http://www.squidoo.com/google-panda-update-changes-to-seo-in-2012 One of the things they talk about is varying your anchor text - have you tried that?

]]> Comment on Apple Sucks! by Anthony http://www.pursuingsuccess.net/2009/12/26/apple-sucks/comment-page-1/#comment-835 Anthony Fri, 21 Oct 2011 08:28:38 +0000 http://www.pursuingsuccess.net/?p=118#comment-835 Apple is just a technojewelry. The makers intended to create a fad that actually made some of my friends smuggish. One of my friend won't stop talking about his iPhone. That's great, but don't you have other things to do than fiddle with that iCrap? Another friend of mine said, "oh, my mac doesn't get pop ups at all!". To test his hypothesis, I borrowed his Mac Pro. In less than five minutes of use, I had several pop ups coming up on the screen. It's all just a marketing trick to make you buy something so expensive. I can buy the same hardware used for Mac towers 50% less. They always mark it up to 100% of the original cost. Apple is just a technojewelry.

I'll help spread the word so at least fewer people might get caught. Good to hear you are fighting back there!! Mark Hey Giorgio
