There are an incredible amount of companies offering services to increase search engine ranking on the market at the moment. This is because, anyone who uses any Internet marketing methods already knows that search engine optimization is the the key to success. Search engine marketing works since almost everyone uses search engines to find what they are looking for on the Net. However, the reality is that none of these companies that promise search engine ranking can really guarantee success. Search engines use complicated algorithms that are simply too difficult to ever really crack. And if someone did manage to figure out the precise algorithm, it wouldn’t matter, since the search engines periodically, update their algorithms to prevent a breach to their integrity.
For example, Google factors over 100 variables in their algorithms. Although it is difficult to determine the running order of importance to the various factors, it is generally agreed that keyword density is a deciding factor used for search engine ranking. Keywords are simply the words and phrases that a surfer types into the search box to find the relevant information available on the Net. The search engines in turn provides the surfer with a listing of websites related to their query. If you type in ’sailing’, then you do not want to look at a web page that mentions the word only once as it is likely not to contain the information that you are looking for. However, if the web page mentions the phrase “sailing” ten times, then it is much more likely to contain the information that you seek. This is the clear reason why keyword density is such an important variable.

I was browsing through some interesting blogs that managed to catch my attention. One of these blogs is hot-screensaver.com and this blog focuses on life in Malaysia. It got me interested because I have some friends from Malaysia and I know them through some previous online earning opportunities. I don’t know the guy Neo who runs hot-screensaver.com personally but his uncanny ability to bring out the humor and life in Malaysia quickly captivated me because I have been to that country a few times. I absolutely love the hustle bustle of the life there. The only gripe I have for that country is traffic jams happen easily but I guess this is a common problem faced by many countries.
This blog is in my RSS list so today I glanced through the headlines and was attracted to “Make Money with Review my post”. I quickly read through Neo’s latest post and PayPerPost (PPP) is a new idea to me. Basically, PPP will pay you money via Paypal for reviewing someone’s blog posts in your own blog. You can be the blogger or the advertizer. This idea is novel and creative because you can specify the PR of the blogs you wish to write the review for you. Let say you specify a blog with PR6 to review your blog, your blog’s URL will be linked to the PR6 blog. In this way, you gain a valuable link back and good publicity. Of course, you need to pay top money if you wish to get a high PR blog to review for you. This is my own deduction and I hope I am right on this description.

Google is arguably the most popular search engine in the last few years and it will continue to dominate the industry for many years to come. Therefore, the meaning of pagerank has become even more significant because that’s the buzzword when it comes to SEO. Pagerank is a term and system invented by Google to rank the importance of the sites. However, in actual fact, PR number you see is really an outdated number because there is no real time updating by Google. I guess the reason is to prevent people from using unscrupulous methods to jack up the PR and hence attain a high ranking.
What is really advantageous for having a good PR ranking is for the purpose of link selling. It is just like a personal achievement record for a real estate agent because you know if the agent sells with distinctive records, he/she must be an expert hence their chances of getting the business from you may be higher compared to someone newer. If you site is new, it will be at PR 0 and you really need to work hard if you wish to increase this number. There are many possible ways to do that, but the two most important things to do are of course write quality content and building quality incoming links. Just be doing these two main strategies alone will set your site to a higher ranking of PR 3 or 4 in 2 to 3 months time.

Search Engine Optimization is not a fast overnight process. I have told this to the company I work for and I am glad that they understand. Normally it takes about 2 to 3 months at least to see some reasonable results with constant on-going effort coupled with right methodology applied to the SEO process. Some more, the search algorithms may change without your knowledge, therefore the SEO game is like running in a track without a definitive finishing line.
One thing is for sure, without quality content, your site or blog won’t lead you to high position in the SERP. It is the constantly updated information that keeps the search spiders coming back for more. The more times it comes back, the higher chances of being ranked high in the SERP for you. What search engines want is the content with the users’ needs in mind and not being tricked by any black hat methods to get your sites ranked high.

Right folks, I have not been writing much about ’security’ topics recently. Today I thought I should share with you guys how to safely protect your E-Gold account as what I’ve been doing. Some of you may have known these steps but I thought I should recap a bit. This is a very common topic but nowadays I still come across many cases of e-gold being hacked stories.
It always takes a big mistake to learn or do what you should be doing, and this mindset happens because many people assume unfortunate things won’t happen to them. Just to share, in December 2005, I was robbed of nearly $5,000 of 12DailyPro money (when 12DP was using e-gold and in pink of health) that was paid to my e-gold, within 1 hour of payment. I didn’t even have a chance to see this number in my e-gold balance except at the history page showing to who it was paid to! Everything was done sneakily and stealthily. When it happened, my mind was a whirlpool because this just happened and it gatecrashed my dreams. E-Gold can’t help you to recover the money as one of the terms you agree when you sign up for account there states that spends once done are not recoverable whatsoever. It is precisely due to this loophole that E-gold is such a haven for cyber criminals. I think this happened because I clicked on an email link unknowingly

I am proud to announce this blog achieves consistent high rankings at Google search engine for some CEP-related keywords. It has been a fantastic experience after the effort put in to optimize this blog for CEP-related searches.
My blog is ranked PR4. Right now, I am looking for healthy and mutually beneficial link exchanges with sites or blogs with PR4 ranking or more related to make money online, SEO or online security subjects. I think I will add a section on link exchanges very soon to facilitate that. Do leave a message at comment section if you are keen. Thanks

Traditionally, content searching has been solely dominated by search engines ever since the early days of internet development. I can still vividly remember Altavista is the brand name in search engines prior to the emergence of Google in late 90s. Altavista is still around today but seriously, I wonder how many people really use it. I tried a search there for one of my keywords and the SERP is so radically different from Google’s.
But the dominance of search engines for content syndication is about to be intruded by a rather new technology called RSS or Really Simple Syndication. It is really not that simple for newbies because I spent a lot of time learning it one year back. But I guess it is easier to be understood by newbies due to the growing popularity of blogs and the active adoption of RSS feeds by major content companies.

Got to admit, many times before I started a new post, the couple of hours before I started any typing, there’s this kind of uneasy feeling about what to type today. It’s getting a bit gibberish due to the inner fear of lacking new fresh content for today. I wonder whether any avid bloggers have this type of feeling? Any expert bloggers can share how to overcome this kind of blogging blocks?
I know content is king to search engines, especially the almighty Google everyone is aiming at. Everyone in this SEO or serious blogging is absolutely crazy about the rankings in SERP and that magical pagerank number. Web2007 is currently at PR4, a jump from 0 to 4 in one single update. I consider it kind of achievement which I can be proud of. I have some other blogs in other topics which jump from 0 to 2 so you can sense the excitement for this one. I will definitely continue to strive on.
