Hi Arthur, I had this issue happen to one of my Wordpress sites last week (whole site is blank - cant access backend - etc). What turned out being the issue is a HTTP REFFERER hack that hit a few Wordpress sites I manage - what this does is display links in your header.php file ONLY IF the...

Spot on here MeetTheVirus! I've been running an SEO company for a few years now and love to watch some of my competitors just eat 10th page dust when their automated linkbuilding methods finally catch up to them. I may frequent this site but I would never touch any method that automated any...

Innofidelity I really would question your clients motives before jumping into a strategy like this. There was a time when bulk linkbuilding was the end-all strategy, but these days you're just asking for trouble - I see a lot of people in the comments above echoing that. I've dealt with...

Spot on right here. I'm the lead of an in-house SEO team and often times I spend a few hours each week using scrapebox to fill a few spreadsheets for our dedicated linkbuilders who then manually go after certain keywords. Lately I've been using it to find guest blogging opportunities so we can...

These take much longer to index content and get some rankings. My (unfounded) thoughts are that the technology behind Bing and Yahoo are unfortunately years behind Google. Their crawlers have a much tougher time navigating the web than the G-Bots. One step I like to take is to set up Bing...

The main reason I stick to JS based tracking is really just ease of implementation and use. Takes 15 seconds to plop a GoogleAnalytics code in a clients site, and I'm so familiar now with the software that I find it a waste of time to use anything else. As far as the con's you mentioned...

SpyFu.com has a nice tool where you can compare your site and your competitors site and it will give you a nice concise list of keywords your competitor is optmizing for, that you might be missing out on. The analysis is automated based on their content so it pulls some funny results, but...

Howdy folks, I've been working in the legal niche for some time now and recently have been debating with one of my clients on the benefits of joining a major blog network within the legal industry which I will refrain from mentioning unless people want to check it out. The deal with this...

I've actually been looking to find one of these as well, but as of yet have had no dice. I think there's a few tools on SEOMoz that accomplish this on a page-by-page basis, but as of yet nothing that can extract meta's in bulk (as far as I know of)

I've been picking up a slew of SEO clients lately (freelance style) and charge them around 500 dollars for their on-page. This is usually coupled into the cost of a site redesign which I usually press for in the first month. THEN ITS LINKBUILDING TIME!

Got legal, construction/interior design, rock music, accounting, and fitness niches available - PM me for more info! PR1-4

Some of my smaller clients elect to get 1 post a week (I provide more but they have stingy budgets.) My full time SEO job has 12 microsites all publishing 1 post a day. This also includes our money-site blog which updated 2x a day. around 14 posts a day :)

Greetings, I am the sole heir to an enormous oil estate in eastern Texas but my family has been on the run from the CIA for years. I am looking for a clever young Indian person in order to get my wealth offshore. I have already sent you a check for 450K, I just need you to Western...

Just got my office to start using RavenTools to manage our rankings/linkbuilding/social media accounts and I think it's an excellent program so far. We've used some other ranking/analysis tools in the past (SEO Powersuite and SEOMoz) but I find RavenTools to be beating out all of them so far...

So it sounds like you folks are buying leads/actions/whatever from Commission Junction? From what I've seen with most affiliate programs the URL provided to publishers is typically redirect to your (or whomever has the offer running) website which they use to track how much traffic they are...
