The following is a paid review:
Everyone who sells a product or service online or just write blogs, wants traffic to their sites. The main sources of traffic are Search engines, PPC and other advertising programs. PPC and advertising programs can bring some temporary traffic by investing huge amount. But they can’t be compared to search engines traffic. Stats say that people get more then 70% traffic from search engines if the site is well optimized for search engines and have a good ranking in search engines. Read the rest of this entry »

The following is a paid review:
You may have spent thousand of dollars in development of your site to sell your product or service online, but if your site doesn’t have a good design then there is hardly any chance of success of your online business.

I am providing quality directory submission service on various webmasters forums and have some good feedback. My clients always ask me various questions regarding directory submissions. One of those questions is:
“I have new site and want to submit it to 500 directories. Will my site penalized by search engines for having 100s of back links in short period?”
I never said I am SEO expert but for client satisfaction I searched on various webmasters forum and search engines. Here is what answer I got:
All directories don’t activate your links on same time. A directory takes 2 days to 6 weeks, even 6 months to approve and activate a link. So, all back links from directories may takes up to 6 months to be active.
Let if 20% of your links approved in first week and cached by search engines then you will get 100 back links from 500 submissions. If the site is old and already has some back links then it’s not any issue but may be problem for new sites.
So, I will say that you should not use more then 200 submissions for your new site. First go for 200 submission plan, and then wait few days till back link updates. Then you can choose 500 or more submissions plans.
It is personal thoughts maybe I’m wrong. Expert’s thoughts are welcomed on this topic.

If you have ever wanted to start your own online business, you then know that although there is an abundance of information out there, it is often confusing or contradicting. I came across an eBook the other day which I feel is a pretty good guide for both the begginer and expert. It is the Online Business Guide and the thing I really liked about this book is how step by step it is.
When you usually buy an eBook it is either cram packed with Ads or horribly out of date. This guide however is nearly 50 pages of pure content. I definately reccomend it for my readers that might be toying with the idea of starting their own Online Business.

I have bought a PR3 domain signitas.com. At firts I thought I will sell it, But now I have decided to make a word cloud site on this domain.
But this will be different from all other word cloud sites. I don’t want to creat a word cloud page with 100s of outbound links, because in my thoughts its useless to buy a link on page with 100s of outbound links.
I am making my own script for my word cloud site. Some of features that this word cloud site will have are :
- Regulare and featured link option
- Limit around 30 regular link and 15 featured links.
- Link details page for each link
- Site description with Featured links
- Links are for life time and will be on home page for atleast one month.
- After one month if some one will bid more then your link price then your link will be moved to next page but will not deleted.
- You can add funds in link to move to home page again.

It’s true that no one can legally remove accurate and timely negative information from a credit report and paying off old collection accounts or charge offs can lower your scores. Though we run after Credit bureaus who promise to increase our credit scores. But the main aim of such Credit bureaus is to collect your personal information and sell it for money.
Seasoned Trade Lines is different from those. They are claiming that they can increase your credit scores as much as 100 or more points in as little as 30 days. They also gives values to their customers privacy which is clearly said in their Privacy Policy.
Seasoned Trade Lines have been featured not only on Fox TV but also in the Wall Street Journal. Here is the proof

We all know that how directories help us to get a useful relevant back links. But now web directories are also known as links farms.
Though there are few quality free directories but we can’t expect quality from free directories, Because they can’t spen too much time/money on reviewg each submissions.
But what about paid directories?? To maximize their profits paid directories sells lots of featured links, regular links, sidebar sponsored links, footer links, etc, etc.. and ends with 40/50 links per page. Which is enough to be defined as a link farm and these links gets no value from search engines.
So, What would you say- Directories are link farms or not??
