Money Mindset review

November 23rd, 2009 · 2 Comments

November 19th, 2009 · Comments Off

Tweet Yesterday I told you about my DMCA complaint. In the end it had a dramatic effect – while an email to the offending party yielded no result, within 2 hours of faxing a complaint to Hostgator the website in question had added the author name and changed the links to the website they should [...]

Tweet Some good news this morning – we’re ranking!

30 day challenge case study – day 2

November 13th, 2009 · Comments Off

Tweet Yesterday I started a project following the 30 day challenge methodology, although the numbers from Market Samurai are way off those recommended. However, even though it has loads of competition, I know that most of that is just junk – I rank at #3 and #4 as I said yesterday, but I also rank [...]

30 day challenge case study

November 12th, 2009 · Comments Off

Tweet I thought I’d do a quick case study using the techniques taught in the Thirty Day Challenge. I’ve followed the methodology on 6 websites this year, but without much luck; using the numbers specified in Market Samurai – competition < 30,000 , SEO traffic > 80 and phrase to broad match ratio > 15% [...]
