Busby SEO Challenge - Blog With No Name

I run a very small company and I appreciate the work employees and outsource partners do for me and I reward them and treat them as special people. Even to the point of remembering simple stuff like birthdays. My only and longest working loyal employee’s birthday is on Valentine’s day and that is pretty much not hard to forget. And I always made it a point to give her something on her birthday. But sometime last year I believe, she has moved in the religion of Jehovah’s Witness. And they do not believe in birthdays and other celebrations. Even to the point they will not accept gifts since for then this is not right and is not acceptable. And I was aware of their belief and I respect that belief. So as her birthday passed by, I just let it pass as if I forgot about it.

I have noticed Yahoo seems to be dancing more than Google these days. Google was the most popular dance before but in my stuff I am working on, Google is not even stepping on the dance floor. It is all Yahoo doing all the crazy Yahoo dance moves. My sites are moving all over the place moving back and forth from page 1 to 3 and back to 1, and back to 3. Just how many data centers does Yahoo have also? Everyone is just so concentrated on Google, I never heard of the same cults Google has in monitoring every IP address Google has.

As for MSN, it is all lowering keyword density and mixing all the link text is what I see. Too much keyword density seems to alert the MSN spam filter. Only after i lessened my keyword density have I seen a jump from beyond 10th page to page 2.

Just a year ago, I remember MSN and Yahoo was not a problem at all and it was so hard to rank in Google. I am kind of seeing something else right now. Google seems to be easier to rank for me these days. And it is harder in Yahoo and MSN. And surprisingly, I am having a harder time in MSN/Live.

In the October 3, 2006 SEO Rockstars show talked about the online gabling industry. With the recent Government bill proposals, which is just a few days from approval will not allow online gambling sites in the United States, I wonder what will happen with Online Poker websites? Many affiliate sites make money out of Poker and other forms of online gambling where almost every online gamble site is powered by affiliate networks. Now if these sites will no longer be allowed in the United States, will these websites still make enough money to rely on US offshore markets? Will this online industry still be as lucrative as it is today, not only from the online gabling companies but from the affiliates as well?

Greg Boser’s guesstimate, knowing that in the proposed bill does not include horse racing, believes that many online affiliates might move their attention into that direction. Imagine if this goes out of the US, not only the online gambling websites are affected, but the online gabling affiliates as well, and also the online media selling companies are also losing a large customer base where this online media companies include Google Adwords, Yahoo Marketing and MSN as well.

In previous laws, online gambling companies were not allowed to be physically present in the United States so most of these companies are based offshore. But people from the United States could still join the games online no matter where the company is based since it is on the Internet. But in the new proposed bill which I have not read page by page, but has heard from the affiliate community, that when the new bill is passed, these online gaming companies will not even be allowed to have game players from the United States. If you love playing Party Poker, better start or continue playing while you still can and think of your poker strategy.
