There aren’t many types of careers out there that offer stability these days. Regardless of how hardworking you are, how much overtime you put in at work, or being a team player - hundreds of thousands of those exact types of employees got laid off over the course of 1 year. Not because they weren’t [...]

2008 Bloggers Choice Awards - Vote For TavernCast
Taverncast started out 3 years ago as a podcast focusing on beer drinking and World of Warcraft. It was really a group of close friends getting together, drinking a few good brews, making smart ass comments and playing this online game. Oh yea, and working of course.

My First Earthquake in Los Angeles
So here we have it folks - about 1 hour ago while I was in the middle of an uber SEO meeting with my team, cranking out shiznit and figuring out secret sauces, the room we were in started shaking a little. Of course, I thought someone was running down the hall - they do [...]

Take American Express for example, they don’t really care if their URLs are the [...]
West Side Spam
When a website gets a chance to implement a new design, some tend to go overboard with SEO techniques that they’ve seen on other websites. It’s been long discussed that plastering links at the bottom of the homepage using dynamic keyword creates a bad experience for the user, much less looks like dirty spam. Many [...]
Google Is Confused About Indexing
As much money as Google has invested in their search technology and AI, there are still some simpler things that the mighty search engine has problems with.
This URL does exist and it’s actually a filter type result from smarter.com. But checking to see if Google has indexed that page, brings up an error. See picture [...]

Google Keyword Tool Shows More Data
I just noticed this today when I was toying around with Google’s free keyword tool. This could have been a few days old already - but it’s pretty cool that Adwords is providing some tangible numbers under the “Approx Search Volume” and “Approx Avg Search Volume” columns.
This will definitely help webmasters in their keyword research, [...]
