Well another week is gone. I tell you they go faster and faster. That's probably because I am getting older and older.
Any way, I started trying to get my Blogs a little more Search Engine Friendly this week. I still have a long way to go before I get though, but I think they are better and traffic seems to be picking up a little.
There are a lot of different things you can do to help with SEO. I am certainly not an expert at this and don't pretend to be one. I am still learning.
Here is one site you can go to and pick up some good tips to help with SEO.

I have not put all his suggestions to use yet. But, I have used several and plan to put some of the others in as soon as I have time.
Another thing that I found this week that I really like if I can ever get it to work like it is suppose to is a program called VideoStacker. It allows you to put a little block on your website or blog with from one to five thumbnails of YouTube videos. You can choose all the colors for the little box and the keyword for the videos and it will pull videos that are relevant to your site. It still has some bugs, but I hope they will get them worked out.
If you want to take a look at it here is the link:

Well I think that about covers it for this week. See you next week, if not sooner.

Well each week seems to go by a little faster than the one before. I thought last week flew by, but man this week really just zoomed by. I am not even sure I was here some days. I think I might have missed a few.Of course with time flying by like this it is sure hard to get all you need to do done. But, I did pretty well. There were a lot of Wordpress plugin updates this week and I managed to get them all done. I do use the "One Click Plugin Udater" plugin by
Janis Elsts and it makes things a lot easier. If you don't have it, you should. However, there are a few plugins that it does seem to detect and you have to update them manually. But it works with most of them.I also got back to building a few more blogs and websites. Just got started with that though, so nothing to really tell you about yet. Maybe next week.Well not much this week, but that is about it for now.

Well This week has gone by too fast. I didn't get everything done that I had planned. However, I did manage to upgrade all of my blogs to the new version 2.6.1 of WordPress. I don't really know what 2.6.1 did, but I assume mostly bug fixes.I also found two new, well new to me anyway, WordPress plugins that I like. The first one will check all the links on your blog and let you know if any are broken. you then have several options to fix them. I was amazed at some of my blogs. There were many broken links, that I had no idea was there.You can find that plugin here:
http://w-shadow.com/blog/2007/08/05/broken-link-checker-for-wordpress/The other plugin is called WP SEO Master. It is a very powerful plugin. But of course as things become more powerful, they also become more complex to operate. There are a lot of SEO plugins around and I have used several. But, I believe this one has more options than any I have seen before. So far, I have only used the default settings until I learn more about it. You can find that plugin here:http://www.bercongroup.com/products/wordpress-plugins/wordpress-seo-master-pluginWell that about covers it for now. More later.

Well this has been an interesting week. I have got quite a bit accomplished this week.
- First I have updated all my blogs to the new version 2.6 of WordPress.
- Second I have gotten all of my WordPress plugins updated to the latest version. That can sometimes take quite a bit of time.
- Third I have been working on a new ping list for my blogs. I use MaxBlogPress's MBP Ping Optimizer to ping the services after a new post. There have been a bunch of upgrades to it lately.
- Fourth I have gotten two article directories installed using ArticleMS. It is really pretty simple to do. If you would like to get in to the business of selling websites. Those are good sites to sell.
Stay tuned for more as I will try to keep you up to date on what is going on with me.If you have questions or comments please leave them in the comment section and I will get back with you.Have a great day and lets make some money.
