Yesterday, I wrote that linking to your site and keyword stuffing fall short in Google, when comparing those SEO...um..."techniques" to simply being a good internet citizen. (Netizen) My article pointed out that the most important thing for SEO is to be an honest person, write honest content, and

Many of you saw the post I wrote about getting your face to appear in the Google results using your ActiveRain profile. However, I have received a bunch of emails asking about how this can be done in Wordpress. With Wordpress, it's super easy. I actually wrote a post on that before too, but ther

Good afternoon ActiveRain. Today I was thinking about how, back in the olden days (like 2000), black hat "SEO" people would try to trick Google by putting hidden text on a page. The text was usually white on a white background, but blue on blue works too! So the user would arrive on a page that

This post is no longer relevant, because ActiveRain made it much easier. If you want your face to appear in the Google search results- just edit your ActiveRain profile and add a link to your Google+ page. That's it. No need to read or watch the video. That's right folks. Imagine somebody searchi
