Is every click that you make being recorded somewhere?  When it comes to privacy and use of the Internet, World Wide Web inventor Tim Berners-Lee says that Internet users need to be responsible for “keeping an eye out” to protect the freedom and anonymity of the Web. I thought his thoughts were well worth sharing here. One of his observations that surprised me is that 80% of the world population is not online yet. He asked that we consider the implications of what the web will b... Read Full Story

When I started out this case study on October 4, 2009, I chose the domain “Cellulite Is” based on the keyword research.  I was hoping at that time that I could meet or beat the #3 position in Google.  The site went live on October 13. Yesterday, we were at #10. Today, we are at #1. I’ve done article marketing and submitted “blurbs” to the network of blogs that I am setting up for you folks to use.  I am going to continue with the link building so this site will s...

When we started this out, the keyphrase I choose was “cellulite is.”  This morning, the page is now in Google’s top 10 search results for “cellulite is ” (without the quotes).  That’s out of 3,100,000 results.  I’d say that’s not too bad for a site that is not even a month old. Pages in search results: The first six results on 10/24/2009: Bottom half of Google’s first page of results — we’re the 10th one on the list. Read Full Story

As of today, there are no sales to report — but, items have been clicked.  It’s just a matter of time until we see this site make some money. The last couple of days, I have been away on business.  However, I did manage to find some time to submit more articles through AMA, which has so far delivered about 14 unique links.  The Magic Article Submission software has yielded approximately 80 unique links so far. The unique visitor count is at 170. The site is finally getting some s... Read Full Story

Windows 7 is supposed to be faster and better than all of Microsoft’s previous operating system versions … and it is not supposed to create a lot of trouble like the Vista platform created.  Many of us did not bother switching to Vista because of the hardware conflicts it created. Vista was also notorious for software conflicts that it had with programs such as Quickbooks. Upgrading a Vista system to Windows 7 is supposed to be easy, but XP users are going to have trouble.  Appli... Read Full Story

Traffic continues to increase, and quite a few articles are now publishing.  In a week’s time, I think this site will start making money. The article that was published at Ezine Articles has generated a click to the storefront.  I have not seen a sale yet, however. At Article Marketing Automation (AMA), eight unique versions of an article have been published. A bunch of articles have been published through the Magic Article Rewriting and Submission software.  Over 200 are pending, aro... Read Full Story

This morning, the case study site saw a considerable amount of fresh indexing.  Right now, 79 pages are indexed in Google and we have another 39 in Yahoo. I ran out of time to do any marketing on this site over the weekend; however, Article Marketing Automation published some more spins of the article I submitted on Friday, so there are now 7 back links coming from them. There is no income to report yet. Read Full Story

I’m headed out to the woods today.  Before I go, I thought I’d remind you of an excellent free membership site that delivers a ton of tools that you can use for your site development. If you need free PLR packages, Wordpress templates and software, definitely check out PLR Wholesaler.  Not only do they keep adding more content for download, but there are some nice scripts and software downloads, such as an 8-minute article writer and a link cloaker. There’s something new add... Read Full Story
