Today’s SEO links with my comments in italics: Early in the day I received via email a clear little booklet from one source on “How to Spot Bad SEO Services“. Later in the day another source asked me about my opinion about an SEO’s company. All I had to do was to point to sign #1: “Making Promises that are...
Today’s handy learning: AddThis, a social sharing tool, has great customization options (see my home page), but centering the buttons has to be done with extra CSS. And now onto today’s SEO links with my comments in italics: Blumenthals questions the ethics of business that deface Google Places listing with negative reviews and then offers the service of cleaning them....
The new tool of the day for me was Versions. 10-12 years ago I already used an SVN (Subversion), so the concept of “a software versioning and a revision control system” is not foreign to me. But now I was set up with one, I actually used it and it magically worked. On the other hand I couldn’t accomplish what I set...
I found that finding the “proper” URL of a business on Google Places, also known as Google Maps isn’t obvious, so put together this little tutorial. By “proper” I mean the simple (with no unnecessary information in the URL), unique identifier that will always take you to the right page as long as it exists or as long as Google...
My tool related learning of the day: I used Adobe Bridge for the first time. It is a “media manager that provides centralized access to all your creative assets.” I don’t know about “all,” , but it was great for finding the kind of images I needed for my work from the company’es vault. My code related learning of the...

When I am ready to switch to the new GA this will be a good starting point on how to use the new features for maximum efficiency. Greg Sterling asked Does Google+ Rapture Indicate “Pent-Up Demand” For Facebook Alternative? As I...
I am just slight ashamed to admit the two things I’ve learned today. I have studied how positioning works in CSS, but never really tested it. Today I had to to use absolute positioning for a website, so finally I had a chance to put in practice, whet theoretically I already knew. It was a pleasure to see it workings...
The best skill I learned today: how to make and what’s important for a landing page, “any page on a website where traffic is sent specifically to prompt a certain action or result.” The most egoistic fun I had today: checked myyself at socialstatistics.com, a site that tracks and sorts Google+ users based on the number of their “friends” and “followers.” If this is...
According to my records I had an affiliate account at Amazon.com since at least the beginning of 2000. It might have been earlier, but that’s when I first got payment from them. (An affiliate account allows linking to Amazon.com and earning a fee when somebody follows that link and buys something there.) On June 29 I received an email from Amazon stating...
To start off my new SEO career I read a book (The Art of SEO) and started to follow these three blogs: Search Engine Land, Blumenthals and SEOmoz. I read these daily and from now on I plan to post links to the more interesting pieces, particularly if I have a comment or observation about them. I know that there are...
