    Thin content - 301 works - Tip me

    It's not worth trying to remove a penalty on a site that is so new. Start two new sites. 301 your old to one and do whatever SEO you did the first time again to regain rankings on the 2nd. 301's sometimes pass penalties, sometimes don't. In the best case, you get two URL's ranking.

    What are the most challenging problems you faced as an IM?

    I think one of the hardest things is scaling out. Once you have something working your first obstacle is not to be lazy and complacent. But get too many things going at once and you can become too distracted (or financially overextended if you are paying staff too).

    How do I lay this website out in terms of SEO?

    The pages you are sending links to and trying to rank should be mostly static content as that converts much better than a dynamic index. So use the posts to target your long-tails and then use static pages (you can include a list of the posts in a sidebar or at the bottom but don't distract your...

    Goodbye Wordpress, Hello Static Site Generators

    No, that is completely dependent on your design and the way your markup is structured. You would need to have multiple themes though. In this sense, WP has a head start since there are so many free (mostly bad) themes available. I'd like to develop a smart theme that has some smart randomization...

    Goodbye Wordpress, Hello Static Site Generators

    Many SSG's (including my fave, Hexo) have a template for RSS feeds and sitemaps. There is no "time consuming" aspect to it... it's just baked in. If you are trying to run a big network I think this is a cleaner and simpler approach than using WP personally.

    Goodbye Wordpress, Hello Static Site Generators

    I know Wordpress and IM have gone hand in hand over the years and I do agree that is finally evolving into a pretty nice GUI for a CMS from the user perspective. That said, it has plenty of downsides most notably the growing legions of bots that try to hack WP installs across the web 24 hours a...

    Need a short domain (not so short)... any suggestions?

    It's fairly easy to find a 4 letter domain (or 3 if you don't mind something more abstract) paired with a 2 letter TLD for a total of 6 just through trial and error at a registrar (I like that name.com returns a lot of extensions). If you are ranking this domain in google you need to use a TLD...

    2 manual actions, 5 denied requests, considering 404ing

    Check to make sure your content has not been scraped and posted in it's entirety anywhere else in the google index (search for sentence fragments in quotes). If it hasn't then I would dump the URL and move the content to a new domain (either fresh or bought at auction/recently expired). To do...

    Point backlinks to domain or inner pages?

    You definitely should link your homepage and your interior pages. The home page is a great place to use raw URL's and "branding" anchors. And if there is not worthwhile content on the home page you should consider adding some! Add some content to the home page besides just a recent post summary...

    I need someone who knows how to program

    If this is not that complicated of a process I would suggest that you considering hiring a contractor (on oDesk or the like) to put it together. You will need cash upfront and a really tight outline of exactly what you want, but then the tool is yours. Most contractors are not going to try to...

    Health site - Need opinion

    Sounds like you have put a lot of effort in already in creating content and getting the site going with decent volume keywords. On your next site though I would strongly recommend sorting out how you are going to monetize it first. This makes such a huge difference. You can make great money with...

    How To Get PBN Indexed?

    Your other option is just patience. But to speed things along I like using Twitter... it's the cheapest, easiest way that seems natural too.
