I just ordered a package to go along with a Speed Rank Platinum Package. Currently in spot 8. I will be tracking the results and will post back with an update.
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.
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).
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...
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...
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.
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
Heads up guys! Anyone here running a site that uses an SSL certificate you need to look at http://heartbleed.com. There is a serious vulnerability that affects millions of websites where an attacker can obtain master keys and access pretty much all kinds of sensitive information (user/pass, etc)...
This is not news but it's amazing the poor mobile experiences I still see around. I do most browsing from my phone as when I'm on my computer I'm working not surfing. Having a responsive site that adapts to the viewport it is being viewed from is essential. Unfortunately a lot of "responsive"...
At that scale it doesn't matter. Now if you are talking about 1000 posts it would be different.
Has google crawled your site since you posted those other pages? If they aren't getting indexed you need to make sure you haven't goofed anything in the meta and that the content is proper (and not...
Congratulations. You just did it! Google this phrase that you coined: "Google first page so quick time". Your post here ranks number one.
This lesson teaches you two things:
1) existing authority sites (like BHW here) get crawled and indexed quickly, so you might be better off with a page or...
I think you should keep all business agreements with your real name (or company name) as a matter of doing good business (those hosting bills are tax deductible after all).
Google cannot see your private information but you should check to see what the company makes public. For instance if your...
