The DMOZ mob strikes again…
This weekend I was reading about Shoemoney being extorted by a DMOZ editor. I thought: heck, I’m a DMOZ editor, I don’t want to be associated with stuff like that, let’s see if I can do anything to help. So I posted something like that in the commentthread to the above post, and I added [...]
The trouble with 301 redirects and backlinks
On the SERoundtable the question is raised whether you can check if a site 301 redirects to your website, referring to a thread on the SEW forums and an article by Aaron Wall. That seems quite simple to me, as most of the times you’ll see clicks coming in from sites on which your own [...]
Bidvertiser.net – Text-Link-Advertising
This is a sponsored review. I got a request to do a sponsored review for Bidvertiser for Advertisers. Requests like this are always fun, and this one started off even better, since the people at Bidvertiser really get how this market works. They encouraged me to sign up for their referral program and use the [...]
Blogspam works, but only in large quantities
Dave Davies did some research on whether nofollow links still pass some linkjuice, and as it turns out (which we knew of course) it does, a bit… So, for your blogspam to be useful, you have to do it in very very large quantities :)
What’s more frustrating than having a link from dev.live.com?
My domain-info script has a link from the dev.live.com mashups list, which of course is nice, I mean: who doesn’t want a link from a live.com subdomain? But then I checked the dev.live.com robots.txt file… Now that sucks :) I wonder why they blocked it… I’ve sent in that question through the feedback form, you’d [...]
Yahoo SiteExplorer web vs. API: answers from Yahoo!
In response to my post about the Yahoo API giving the “wrong” results, I got an email from a Yahoo! rep, and we’ve been emailing back and forth a few times since. When I showed him the difference in the numbers given through the API and the Web interface for css3.info (I’ve updated my domain-info [...]
Selling links? Don’t advertise it openly!
As you might have noticed, I’m a huge fan of 103bees, as I truly think it’s one of the nicest tools out there for bloggers and other people interested in what people were searching for when they reached your site. Today, however, I logged in to my account, and I saw that 103bees is selling [...]
DMOZ and Wikipedia: how it should work
Contrary to the popular saying “DMOZ is dead”, I think it’s not. That combined with the recent Wikipedia nofollow debate made me think. Wikipedia is an online encyclopedia. DMOZ, or the Open Directory Project is “the largest, most comprehensive human-edited directory of the Web”. An encyclopedia should contain references to other articles in that encyclopedia, [...]
PageRank update, some PR6′s added
I got notified by a post on SEO Roundtable that another (or still the same) PR update was going on. So far it seems that css3 . info has become PR6, as well as it’s blog, which rocks of course! Seems like all pages younger than 1.5 years or so are having their update now [...]
Contextual links for sale
No, I’m not saying you can buy links on this blog, I’m talking about an exciting new project my friend Jeff Behrendt over at Aviva directory has launched together with V7N’s John Scott.
