"Don't Waste Money on a So-Called SEO Specialist"
Now clearly this dolt must have […]

I  have commeted on both the Positive Aspects of Real Rank along with the Negative Aspects of Real Rank.  If you read my negative post you will recall one of my issues was that for advertisers buying posts via PayPerPost/IZEA they specify RealRank in terms of 1-9.  Where a blogger with a real rank of […]

A lot of people seem to believe that SEO is about nothing more then getting a web page to rank well for high traffic terms on Google and the other major search engines.  Back in the dawn of SEO that was pretty much the case and anyone that could do it consistently was quickly able […]

OK when Real Rank was first announced it coincided with the giant vicious Google PR smack down.  At that time I reviewed it and was pretty hard on it.  I have since discussed it directly with several People at PayPerPost and Izea and in fact I am even doing a bit of "fully disclosed evil" […]

I recently wrote a very long article about how to protect yourself from Google, if you are a paid blogger.  The article is very long and covers everything I could think of in regard to building traffic and protecting the value of your blog.  For those that got nuked down to  PR0 (like Comtech did) […]

Originally I was going to do a video course on all of this showing how to do it step by step and sell it for say 19-29 dollars.  I still will if enough people commit in advance to buying it and I think it would help a lot of less technical people get it all […]

Since PayPerPost started I have been a huge fan.  They have up until now done everything right.  They kept everything above board with the Disclosure Policy Requirement.  They provided great control for advertisers (I have used them to advertise massively) where you could filter by geographic region, alexa traffic, google PR and many other criteria.  […]
