Blackhat SEO Redux, Yahoo Google talk, Yoast Launch and more - ShoeMoney Show

35 people have said their piece on this post. What say you?

We first tried the show at the regular time on Tuesday but ran into some issues with Blogtv. Soon after I got a call from Ustream CEO Brad Hunstable who also happens to be a huge MMA fan! We talked about MMA stuff and then he sent me instructions on how to do picture in picture video. Works pretty good. The bandwidth at our office was only 512kbps upstream but we have doubled that for next weeks show.

Live Videos provided by Ustream.TV

Items discussed in this weeks show.

Yahoo losing people but not rehiring

Perception of blackhat SEO

Seomoz SMX Training vs SES San Jose

Yahoo/Google deal - advertisers and ad coverage

eBay cashback with live search

Joost launch Yoast.com - also talk about his seo wordpress guide which is pretty good

Market leverage contests - Jonathan Volk has the full list here

Obligatory twitter talk: Twitter blacklist

    last time it was like being in the room with shoe and having him use the headphones. You didn’t hear anything except shoe.

    Video not working for me in IE7 or FireFox 3.

  7. Geiger said on June 20th, 2008 at 1:16 pm

    Tried again, wasn’t working behind the proxy server. Still seems like it’s a bit taxed with the buffering.

  8. Geiger said on June 20th, 2008 at 1:22 pm

    The biggest thing that I’ve seen out of Yahoo was Yahoo Answers. They have a lot of their posts rank #1 for long keyword phrases. If you remember Google Answers actually failed miserably.

    Market Leverage is making a huge market push.

    the video is really choppy … ustream needs to give up more bandwidth!

    Is your show on a regular schedule?

    Can we get an email or a twitter reminder when it is about to go on?

    Thanks

    Shoe, where is the cape? A nice blue or white silk cape would look good on you. What do you think?

  13. SlightlyShadySEO said on June 20th, 2008 at 5:16 pm

    I don’t suppose you have any reason for that statement? It’s dumb to put a lot of work into a site then promote it with obvious blackhat, I’ll admit. But so long as you either factor getting banned into your business model or use proper stealth(which does exist), it’s an entirely workable thing.

    sweet, thanks Jen and Shoe! Helps get through the day :)

  15. Melvin said on June 20th, 2008 at 5:42 pm

    first time to hear the twitter blacklist

  16. Jonathan Volk said on June 20th, 2008 at 7:33 pm

    Thanks for the link. :) Hope you guys enjoy the contests…

    I’m not a fan of Jen. She seems like a really nice girl and stuff, but her personality isn’t strong enough to hold up a show with Shoe. She’s too appeasing and comes across like she doesn’t even know how to spell business, much less talk about it. Have her go balls to the wall next time or get someone who won’t kiss your ass. Then you’ll have a real show.

  18. Not John Chow said on June 20th, 2008 at 9:11 pm

    getting better - just not there yet for me.

  19. Tom said on June 20th, 2008 at 9:13 pm

    I believe the area you’re looking into is “grey hat”. Something Shoe himself willingly admits to dabbling in.

  20. Stak Loaded: How to make money doing nothing! said on June 20th, 2008 at 10:46 pm

    i actually do factor stuff like that into business models, believe it or not. but i never said anything about being “obvious”

  21. Best Videos said on June 20th, 2008 at 10:58 pm

    some great and interesting topics there
    Thanks.

  22. new video please said on June 20th, 2008 at 11:20 pm

    ustream doing some sad work.

    Wow thanks for this post and video, you’re doing a great info here :)

  24. petnos said on June 21st, 2008 at 4:43 am

    Thanks for the video. Its knowledable.

  25. Make Money Talks said on June 21st, 2008 at 6:03 am

    Cashback looks good , y! is loosing their feet!

  26. tonyrocks said on June 22nd, 2008 at 9:27 pm

    Why is it that the “bad” seo is called BLACK hat and the “good” seo is called WHITE hat. Even SEO is racist! :)

  27. jatt said on June 22nd, 2008 at 10:00 pm

    Nice info..what is blue hat?Anyone?

  28. Nicole Price said on June 23rd, 2008 at 6:12 am

    @TONYROCKS: LOL! But then you also say “Thou black-hearted knave” to indicate a villain! Then again maybe you dont :)

  29. Nicole Price said on June 23rd, 2008 at 9:42 am

    And as far as i know, bluehatseo is a blog.

  30. Eva White said on June 24th, 2008 at 2:23 am

    There’s Blue hat, Red hat and Black hat SEO sites if you care to look for them. Some guys give pretty good tips for the websites on them.

  31. Austin(Cowsgonemadd3) said on June 25th, 2008 at 6:58 pm

    The video worked pretty good for me after it was started. It was only using like 230kbps or so which is not bad. That helps people with even a slow dsl connection to be able to play it.

  32. Austin(Cowsgonemadd3) said on June 25th, 2008 at 6:59 pm

    The intro was pretty funny. I think a nice blue cape would work well.

  33. Forumistan said on June 26th, 2008 at 2:47 pm

    Video player not works, (IE 7)
