SEO Religion

Met several new people at the San Diego SEO Meet Up last night. Everyone with interesting personalities. Picked up a few new sites for me to visit.

(more…)

Not really that new, it came out about more than a week ago I think, thus this is already ancient news already.

• Yahoo - They did some blackhat stuff. Although they kind of said in some unofficial statement in a way that you know stuff like this can get through sometimes through the various levels of outsourcing.
• Google - Universal search results is really old news already. And I just expressed what I think about the Google universal search result. What is relatively new is the Google Maps Street View, and even if it is so new, some crazy people were able to find some chicks sunbathing in swimsuits and a sexy thong photo using Goggle Maps Street View.
• Microsoft - Not related to search at all. But still cool to mention is Microsoft comes out with the Surface Computing.

Ok, I won the SEO World Championship, now so what? Personally I think that does not make me at par with any of the top gurus of SEO. I may have the ranking techniques but there is still a lot more to learn and obviously I do not have the money these top notch SEOs have right now. And my business process may not be as streamlined as theirs yet. But I know I will get there. And people keep asking me, where’s my car? The car I won in the SEO World Championship? The Citroen C2? Well here it is.

• I am a fan of Dax’ Wordpress Subdomain Plugin, and have been using it for quite some time on my tech blog. But as Wordpress updates so often, the subdomain plugin has to catch up as well. And for some reason, the subdomain plugin was not working on my technology and web business blog date format permalink. But was working for the default permalink. And just to not lose the link juice passed from existing links and index pages and to not lose traffic, I did my own hacks to my own Wordpress and made some smart 301 redirects of every kind to the new permalink structure.
• I attended the San Diego SEO Meet on Meetup.com. I have some photos of the SEO meet up in San Diego. It was nice meeting new people, networking and seeing old friends as well.
