Switter bigger and bigger
I see that switter.com generates more traffic to those who use it, me included. And direct links with “follow” always helps for google:)

Why I like doing business with people that have a lot to loose
Because they are much more serious. The perspective of loosing stuff, for example image, is an excellent incentive for them to stick to the standards. A company/person from nowhere, if they screw up something, they can disappear in 2 seconds.

Why is a good idea to train your client
Google just banned one of our Adwords Accounts, because the landing page was a very low quality. Unfortunately, we cannot get back the money from the balance, which is very annoying. Learning #1: always train the client and if possible force him to be as web-civilized as possible Learning #2: always keep your eggs in…

Future e-marketing guru
Last year I was teaching top e-marketing knowhow during a “second chance” program, for unemployed young people. There were like 20 boys and girls, 18-22 y.o. The course lasted on several months and it was sponsored by the European Union. I really liked the experience of sharing knowledge with people that wanted to get something…

Google more interested in site overall authority than in content accuracy
Lately I saw that google is more interested in the site overall position than in the particularly content. For example, let’s take a search term very niche, like “djksalkjdfalkdjfalkdjf”, where there are not too many competitors. Or no competitors at all. 🙂 Before, if you had a page more or less optimized for this search…

How to get PR4 in 3 weeks after you bought the domain
3 weeks ago we bought a new domain, hpcheap.com – google keyword tool showed that there are a huge number of searches (110k monthly searches) and there was medium competition.

Excellent book from Peter Druckner – About decision and effectiveness
In this weekend I read an excellent book “About decision and effectiveness “, from Peter Drucker. Here are some nice things to remember: – ask yourself what must be done always when in a new position – define your short, middle and long term objectives.

Google index is full month base, not a last minute radiography
Last year I kept records for recalculations of Page Rank and I saw first hand that it does it every 26 days (plus/minus) Now I realized something else. That the calculation is done during the full month, not like a full radiography in the last days. For example: I have a site (A) that I…

Eye injury price premium for webdevelopers
I just quoted rebuilding a website that is a health hazard for programmers. The colors are so bright that it’s impossible to look more then a couple of seconds without going blind. Indeed, the colors are part of the brand positioning. But what about the poor developers? 🙂 Maybe we’ll use a mild color for…

Friends in online, offline, both or none?
Until now, I was very proud that all my connections in Linkedin and Facebook were people that I personally know.Whenever a new person sent me a new connection request and I never knew it, he/she ended up in spam. But now I am reconsidering my opinion. It seems that there is an added benefit after…

HP cheap
I am a fan of HP cheap and reliable products, especially printers. Last year I thought to buy for the business a new printer (not a HP), multi-functional, with top specifications. Unfortunately, I bought it inkjet – big mistake. In the past year, the costs for original ink cartriges soar and I paid several times…

No-follow really means no-follow?
All sites needs incoming links to grow. But a lot of places where you can get those links have a nasty habit of having no-follow tag. In twitter for example, when you specify your web address (that’s showing you in your profile page) – http://www.twitter.com/cferseta, you can see a “no follow”. In blogs comments –…
