I have heard it is better to place content/ads above the fold. Currently, I'm running a site where I have text content above the fold, but the main attraction of each page are my videos, which are below the fold. Naturally, I have placed my ads around the videos (below the fold) as that is the...

When you're on the Adsense home page (I'm using the old version) and look towards the bottom right, there's a section called Google Scorecard. It displays Revenue Optimization, Site Health, and Google+ stats. Is this thing ever accurate, and should I pay any attention to it? It tells me to...

Here's the scenario. I have a portfolio website and I want to start offering a service related to my field. The thing is, I want to create a page for the service and rank that instead of the home page. For example, I would be ranking http://portfolio.com/my-service-here. The domain is not an...

In lieu of phpbuilt's recent post on authority website optimization, I came across a website that checks your website for internal duplicate content while checking out some of my articles on Copyscape. It was actually advertised on Copyscape itself, so I thought it matched up with what I just...

What's a good content locker ad network that you've had experience with? I had no idea content locking ad networks even existed until I tried signing up for AdWorkMedia. They rejected my application. At 40k unique visitors a month I thought I was pretty good, guess not. I'll probably reapply for...

I want to get back into reselling on ebay (did it a couple of years ago and I had some decent results) but I'm limited in knowing where to get my merchandise from. I don't want fake/replica goods and I don't want to wait to get them shipped from China. I'm also not looking for any drop shipping...

I'm trying to raise one of my sites back to page 1 on google and want to invest in a service to do it for me. I'm focusing on a few other things at the moment and don't have time to follow through it manually by myself. Not sure if this is the right forum to post looking for suggestions on...

I'm not looking to buy followers or exchange for them. I have an AddMeFast account loaded up, but I don't want to go that route. I want to stay legit. It seems like there's a courtesy rule that people you follow will follow you back? I've heard there's peak hours to this too, does anyone know...

One of the secondary keywords on my website used to rank me around 10-20 on google, but it seems like after doing a $5 social bookmarks gig in hope to boost it to the front page, it dropped me around the 40 mark and it's been floating there since. At least, I think that's what caused the drop as...

I want to display videos on my website and monetize them with ads. Basically, an ad will stay open in the embeded video player until the visitor either closes it or clicks on it. And if he clicks on it, I would get some money from that lead. I know Youtube does this, but I'm looking for some...

I'm getting the hang of keyword research using LTP, but I want to know what the result "-no PR" means? There's a result for "0" page rank, and then there's one that says "-no PR". Does that mean it has no page rank? Is there a different between PR 0 and No PR? I found a keyword with a bunch of...

I started a new niche site a few days ago. This was my first attempt at ranking a niche site, so I might have rushed it or done something wrong. I'll try to go through the steps which I took and hopefully you guys can give me some insight on the process. Day 1 1. I did my keyword research using...

The title pretty much says it all. How would I rank a website with no/almost no text content? I'm looking at websites like image gallery and such and I'm wondering how they're ranked and how I would rank my own as I'm planning to start one. I always hear content is key and to have lots of...

I used to use this free online tool that would scan the first page of google for the keyword you specified and it would tell you the amount of backlinks, PR, and other info for each website on the first page. It would give you a sense of how likely it was to either beat the competition for page...

So one of my sites got ranked with the nasty "Just another wordpress site" heading on Google. It's been since then removed from the settings, but I'm wondering how to get it to not show up on the Google results anymore.

My keyword SERP positions seem to change a lot. My main keywords are pretty stagnant around 8-12 and don't change often. Then I have some secondaries that jump around from 5-25 every few days. And lastly I have a couple of keywords that jump from the 50s to 150s then back to 50s every day. I...

I've spent about $100 in SEO experimenting already, and none of my new sites have ranked yet, not even in the top 100. All my keywords have low competition, and at least 1000 local monthly searches, with varying CPC's. All keywords were setup on varying EMDs. The competition for each keyword on...

What kind of ads do you use in MNS? Text only, Image only, or both? At first I went with text only, but now I'm not sure.

I just started Twitter after avoiding it for so long. I started because it seems like a really powerful social networking tool that can get my website out there to more people. My question is, is the following/follower ratio important at all? Should I follow back my supporters, or is it not...

Alright, the story is I have a friend who wants to start a website on this new service he's offering, but after checking Adwords for the key words that match his new service, they're very low as almost no one in the field provides what he does. Let's say, some keywords come up with nothing...
