Cash’s Blog

So… It’s been a while. Sorry about that. I have no real excuse apart from laziness. Well, and I got a new job. I love the hippie lifestyle (the not working bit), but the no money bit catches up on you after a while.

Anyway, I’m going to stop being so lazy. That means, keeping my websites up to date, exercising, eating and working. But I hope to only be doing the latter (in the traditional sense at least) for the next few years.

Free Articles Directory

To the important things! I’ve spent the last couple of days working on my website, getting them up updated and whatnot. And in the process, got the article directory I was talking about a while ago, up and running!

There’s still a lot I need to do to it, mostly in terms of looks, but it is all working a ready for you other webmasters out there to get your articles published.

The website is FreeArticlesWiki.com

I had other plans for it at first (hence the wiki part in the domain name). But now, I guess, I just have to make a joke about it NOT being a wiki at all.

Free traffic and backlinks! You know you can’t resist…

Want to know what your website’s worth? Whether it’s to sell your website, or just for fun, Website Outlook will give you a good idea.

Just like DomainTools’ SEO Score and Website Grader’s Score, Website Outlook’s score (value) is calculated using their own made up algorithm. That means, it is just an indication! It derives the value, based on a number of factors, including Alexa Rank, Google PageRank and number of backlinks.

Check it out here: Website Outlook. Just type you URL (www.whatever.com) and click Submit.

Note: Subdomains (like subdomain.whatever.com)

I mostly use it for fun. It makes me feel good when I see the “value” of my websites go up

Submitting articles or “social bookmarks” can be helpful for two main reasons: It will get you traffic, and search engine backlinks. But like I mentioned previously with website promotion, post information that people will find useful, don’t just spam your site around, trying to get backlinks!

So you’re probably thinking, “Hey, this’ll be easy. I’ll just write one really good article and post it everywhere I can!” Sorry to burst your bubble, but it’s not quite that easy, I can tell you!

You’ve got your website, you’ve started optimising it and you’ve gotten a Domain Tools’ SEO score of 99% for every page. Now what? Well, you need to wait a few days (or sometimes weeks) for the search engines to  reindex all your webpages and find any backlinks from other webpages. Then, it will do its calculations and your pages will be listed in search results. Ideally, you want your website to be the first listing for all your keyphrases, but how can you check the easy way?

What are backlinks?

Basically, backlinks are just incoming links. That is, links that come from other websites to your website.

Why are they important?

Google and other search engines use the number of backlinks as  one of the more important factors for determining your website’s search engine rank. What’s even more important than the number is the quality of the sites linking to you.
