    Wordpress Plugins

    This is a guest post by Teyona Dame.
    While there are numerous technology companies that generate millions of dollars by licensing proprietary software, there are only a handful of organizations that focus on developing free open source software. Among others, Richard Stallman and Linus Torvalds pioneered the concept of Free Open Source Software (FOSS) development.

  • Three Alternatives To Guest Posting

    Three Alternatives To Guest Posting

    It’s funny that this topic comes in the form of a guest post, but there are many alternatives when it comes to link building that have to do with other things besides guest posting. Some SEOs (or link marketers if you like that term better) start saying that the rage of guest posting is coming to an end. This method is just sometimes being overused. And if an overuse gets obvious, it’s time to suspect a Google update that will change something about that, though I’m not sure how they will do it with guest blogging.

  • Is Blogging Dead?

    Is Blogging Dead?

    There’s something of a rumour going round that blogging might be dead.  “The Conversation” has moved on to Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr and the like.  Combined with the search engines constant algorithmic athletics, many SEO experts could be forgiven for believing that the phrase SEO “strategy” could be better defined as “stab in the dark”.  However, blogging shouldn’t be taken out and shot just yet.  For a start, most pundits who think that it might be dead believe it’s a new idea, born of the internet revolution.  But blogging has been with us since that first, tentative daub of paint on the wall of a cave back in the Stone Age.

    WordPress SEO

    The other day I decided to check back with WordPress TV and see what cool stuff they’ve got there. And I did that quite in the nick of time because there was a really useful video (SEO WordPress one) on the homepage of WordPress TV.
