The Best Spinner
One of my must use tools. Cheesy name if it was not seriously ‘the best spinner’ around. Pros: Has a massive database of words / synonyms for you to easily replace whole slabs of text in your articles Easy peasy interface. Low low learning curve. Almost as easy as just hit the button and watch [...]
The Death of DIYThemes, Thesis, and Pearsonified
Ok so I’ve been living under a rock for a couple of years…. finally catching up on the wordpress bloggersphere (no that’s not a typo) Previously had huge respects for Chris Pearson, starting from his Copyblogger theme and then moving on to purchasing the full developer version of his thesis theme. Today, when I was [...]
WordPress SEO H1 Header Tags
I can’t believe how many wordpress themes out their tag themselves as seo-friendly and some even have seo in their theme name and they don’t even do the #1 most important use of the h1 tag. Do yourself a favour if you’re a theme designer and use the following: The h1 tag should be used [...]
The Rocky Story Behind Rocky
Did you know that Sylvester Stallone was dirt broke, with barely $100 to spare, and down for the count, before he rose to international stardom in Rocky? March 1975, Sly watched the Mohammed Ali vs Chuck Wepner fight. Chuck was a nobody club fighter who went the distance with Ali – sound familiar? Sly spends [...]
Free Article Submission Sites
I never liked the idea of article marketing. Spending my limited time writing articles for other people’s sites just for one backlink. There are many quicker ways to get backlinks.

Link Farm Evolution (LFE) Review
I don’t normally get excited about a product but Link Farm Evolution or L.F.E for shorts blows my mind. Commenting on Do Follow blogs is dead. Read that again. Commenting on Do Follow Blogs is dead. It was HUGE in 2008 and vandalised to oblivion in 2009. Google has caught on and now do not [...]
How to make the Sitemap Plugin work for WordPress mu
I use wpmu (soon to be named wordpress multisite – wpms?) for most of my many mini niche sites. It makes it easy to install, backup, and whip up new sites. Arne’s google sitemap generator is the best sitemap plugin period so rather than use anyone else’s custom wpmu sitemap solutions, I’ve opted to hack [...]
Popular Polls and High Converting Zip / Email Submits
When I first started affiliate marketing, the first thing I noticed was all these freebie programs that paid out for giving free stuff to people. How easy’s that! All you need to do is enter an email or a zip code. I thought I’d be a gazillionaire a gazillion times over but being the newbie [...]
Interview with Sam The Link Spammer
Here’s a really old article from The Register: Interview with a Link Spammer It’s from 2005 but it’s still really relevant. A few points of note: ‘Sam’ is a link spammer. He spams websites and blogs with text to pump up the search engine rankings of sites pushing PPC. He’s not some 16 year old [...]
