Ashes cricket and website optimisation
I really love cricket. Being Scottish its one of my dark little pleasures, Stephen Fry likes cricket so I’m sure its socially acceptable these days even in Scotland. There are some strange little nuances of test cricket which mean that every optimiser should really be a follower of cricket.
Moving from SEO to SEM to making money.
For a couple of weeks I feel like I need a change. Moving away more and more from concentrating on making money for other people to making money for myself. I enjoy my work whether it be online marketing consultancy here @ Mercury Thread or my full time day job @ Equator (where we have [...]

The thing that got my attention was the ‘visualise’ option. [...]
Are Link Directories any use?
