Here's me joke

O'brien phoned the maternity ward at the hospital.
?Quick!? He said.
?Send an ambulance, me wife is about to have a baby!?
?Is this her first baby?? the intern asked.
?No ya idjit, this is her husband, Kevin?!


(psst. do i get extra points from being a New Yorker and a Jets, Yankees, and Knicks fan?) ;)

Jets, Yankee and Knicks fan combos are rare... there are very few of us.

You need to change your post to green though as that is part of the contest.
 
Here's another just for fun.

While being interviewed for a job, the personnel manager said to the O'Shea brothers:
'We're going to give you a written examination. Ten questions. Whoever gets most right we'll hire.'

Papers were produced and the boys set to work answering the general knowledge questions. When the time was up the personnel manager collected and marked the papers.

'Well,' said he, 'you've both got nine out of ten, but I'm giving Mick the job.'

'Why's that?' asked Pat.

'Well,' said the manager, 'you both got the same question wrong but he had 'I don't know this' and you had 'Neither do I!'.

'Murphy, why don't you give up the drinking, smoking and carousing?' said Mrs O'Leary
'It's too late,' replied Murphy.
'It's never too late,' assured the virtuous Mrs O'Leary.
'Well, there's no rush then,' smiled Murphy.

And I gotta add these...they both make me laugh everytime i read/hear em:

1) Gallagher is in Boston and he is waiting patiently, also, he is watching the traffic cop on a busy street crossing.

The cop stops the flow of traffic and shouts, 'Okay pedestrians'. Then he allows the traffic to pass. He did this several times, and Gallagher is still standing on the sidewalk.

After the cop has shouted 'Pedestrians' for the tenth time, Gallagher approaches him and says, 'Is it not about time ye let the Catholics across?

----
2) A ventriloquist is telling Irish jokes in Davy Byrne's pub in Grafton Street, Dublin, when, O'Leary, an irate Irishman stands up shouting, 'You're making out we're all dumb and stupid. I oughtta punch you in the nose.'

'I'm sorry sir, I...........'

'Not you,' says O'Leary, 'I'm talking to that little fella on your knee.'

On another note, one site that just completed the second link push on yesterday is now on the front page for a competitive local keyword. TT says it is at #10 but my screen says it is #4 and D on the local map. This site is 2 weeks old. This business has never been on the front page before without paying for the ad.

Make sure you are not logged into a google account when you check it. That may be why it is showing up as #4 on your screen....

Follow Up (SERPs) Review
I dont know if Im being impatient here, but it been 3 weeks and the site I used the push on has had little to no changes on my keywords. I only used 3 keywords and those keywords basically stayed the same or dropped a bit, other longer tale keywords that had some of the words of my primary 3 keywords increased slightly (when they were in pos 70 or so, they are now in the 60's)...

Checked a 2nd,3rd and 4th project I used a push on, basically the same results - most keywords stayed the same while some dropped slightly. These 3 'projects' are actually all to the same domain/site - but each of them pointing to seperate subdirectories each targetting their specific keywords/phrases.

Some of the keywords Im not even listed for, so I thought I would of at least gotten pushed into the top 100.
Unfortunately I cannot report back on any more projects, the system only does 1 push per day and reporting back on anything 'newer' would also be slightly unfair to the LinkPushing system.

Suggestions
1) Allow us to run more than 1 push a day! Its ridiculous that I have 20 pushes I can use, but basically have to wait 2/3rds of a month before my 20th push even gets started. So I have to wait 2 months before I see the results of my 20th push!
2) Allow us to setup future LinkPushes. Yes I know Ive used up my 20 for the month, but let me get next months pushes ready and setup and do everything at once!

In Closing
Based on my personal experience with the LinkPushing system - I cant say its worth it. Like I said, maybe Im being impatient - having said that, Ill probably cling on to hope and see what this thing can do in another month. Maybe it will suprise me, or maybe I will just have wasted yet another 147$.
296$ down the drain? Maybe. Time will tell - but looks like it :(
 
My results on one specific KW over the last 3 weeks:

http://postimage.org/image/2kmrjy4pw/

not all of the pushes had the same success but it has improved about 80% of all the sites we "pushed".

Linkpushing is great BUT should not be your only back linking strategy.... my 2 cents.

I offered that many times in the past... all you have to do is to shoot me an email - [email protected] - hit me on skype - linkpushing - or PM me here. You may have just never seen the posts where I offer to do that.

2) Allow us to setup future LinkPushes. Yes I know Ive used up my 20 for the month, but let me get next months pushes ready and setup and do everything at once!
We are actually in beta testing for something like that right now where you can enter your KW into a spread sheet and the system does the majority of the work. We have a couple of the super users trying it out and we are working to get the bugs out.

Also, Vincent makes a very solid point... varying your backlinking is best practices SEO.
 
Its not my only backlinking strategy, I reviewed it based on what IT (LinkPushing) did, not what my entire backlinking strategy did. No point in running several strategies on a site and glorifying all of the strategies when you get results when some are doing work while others not?

I specifically run "1 strategy" per site to see if they work or not to know if they are a keeper or not. Once I know this, then I move onto doing several things on a site at any given time.
 
Is anyone making visual link diagrams of their pushes? If so manually or software? I want to start this from the get go so I don't have a major job if manual is my only option. Suggestions greatly appreciated :)

Fabio is using something for diagrams... every time he posts one, I fall over... in fact he sent one to me via my gmail account and google fell over.

I'm sure that if you hit him up he would tell you what he is using.
