Comment on Don’t Fall For The AdWord Express Scam by Alex

I absolutely hate these companies that call, email, or even text me all the time wanting me to “submit my site to all the search engines”. I may be a real estate agent, but I am still a webmaster and understand the importance of utilizing Google Webmasters and Bing services and all that fun stuff myself! These companies are pretty slick in their campaigns, but I really hope there aren’t many poor souls out there that have fallen for it!

I have used studiopress’ older themes for years now. Have just now tried the new Genesis framework and have found it to save me about 10 minutes per blog post now with handling of just my images and thumbnail images. Pretty good how they have evolved to make clean themes for wordpress. However, their support could be a bit better. It is seriously lagging behind the competition. One of my sites using older framework from them: http://www.onlinesafety411.com

Comment on Minor SEO Changes, Major SEO Effect on a Minor Site by Eric Mitchell

You are correct, SEO makes life easy. After the recent Penguin algorithm change, everyone in the SEO world thought the sky was falling again. However, small tweaks and minor changes keep the love flowing and the results are great positions in the SERPS.

Did anyone realize Netbiz Local and Social only has 26 salespeople now? *LMAO* They used to have between 350-400 people and fired damned near everybody or they quit. And that loser, Eric Kammer, is the sales floor manager? R U effing serious? That guy used to always be drunk, sleep at his desk and he was so fricken lazy. He almost got fired so many times. I guess when you hang out with the President, anything goes. No but seriously – it shrunk to 26 salespeople and a handful of people in the main office? WTF?! hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Comment on Do Ugly Sites Perform Better? by Adwords

I believe that it is not true. Google has stated that from last year the well designed websites will get better ranked, because they have added a some kind of a new algorithm that checks the layout of your website.

Hey, are you guys using the new Firefox 11? Do you see improvements in the memory issue? I heard that they finally started to work on these things. I mean it is the biggest downside to Firefox. Even with super fast computer, if you use Firefox for a long time (half a day) it starts to lag. I am closing it once in a while so this does not happens.

My Firefox versions: I can’t use the image uploader in WordPress to upload images. I have to use Safari or Opera or some other browser to upload images, because Firefox crashes on that.

A little late to the party!

I solved this by opening an new tab in the secondary monitor and dragging it to the primary monitor. Still a pain in the a**.

Geez, if I knew I had to get an attorney to protect me while I was working for the company, I wouldn’t have ever taken this job. They pitch the position to us like it is the second coming. What a terrible company to work for and what lousy services they pretend to give the customers. I feel sorry for the customers the most because they trust the salesman to take care of them. When the salesman turns over the order to the fulfillment department, they have no idea the customer has been crapped on. And then the saleman gets the bad reputation. Sheesh! I hate this company!

Comment on Links, Google and Advertising by Naperville Limo

Links of course are the key factors in any high ranking website. I actually taught myself HTML, XML, and CSS then built my website, http://www.thinkgreenlimo.com . Since launching the website, it has naturally gained a higher PR than most sites do in just a couple of years. Over the years, there hasn’t been any major changes to the website, and I think that helps us maintain our rankings. I’m also fearful that any small changes could negatively effect our rank on SERPs

Comment on Your Domain is a Valuable Business Asset — Treat It Like One by Naperville Limo

Naperville Limo — Sun, 25 Dec 2011 07:08:07 +0000

Agreed. I think a major point of this issue is the whole “aging” of the domain name. No one can replace time in the search engines. I built a site for my business, http://www.thinkgreenlimo.com and registered the domain name two years ago. I own and maintain my domain, the code, and all the rights – as should everybody!

They are also saying they are calling on behalf of Facebook. And they are dually operating under the name Promote Local.

If you want to promote yourself online, find someone competent and honest. Trust me, this company is not for you.

I upgraded one of my Firefox installations to the 9.0 beta release. It can now open new windows on my secondary monitor (yay!) — but there’s another bug that is present in all of my Firefox versions: I can’t use the image uploader in WordPress to upload images. I have to use Safari or Opera or some other browser to upload images, because Firefox crashes on that. Regardless of whether I’m using their fancy-schmancy new Flash uploader or the old-style browser uploader.

In reply to Tom.

Wow, Tom, why don’t you quit beating around the bush and tell us what you really think? 😉

Frankly, I disagree that the Studiopress themes are ugly; I like them! I have to agree with you that they do have a visual “sameness” out of the box, but with some simple customizations such as a custom header, custom colors, layout selection, and your own widgets, they don’t necessarily have to end up looking that much alike.

I will check out the mysitemyway and Solostream themes. I’m always on the lookout for robust, well-coded attractive themes.
