Great Rankings! How to make the money now??

Not a lot of people talk about it these places, but the way to make the most money off the web is through offline monetization, i.e., get on the phone or in person and sell advertising. I worked for a company that made 300/month with adsense. The exact same site, same traffic, made 20,000 the...

"PR Is Not Important"???

I think to say that PR doesn't matter is hyperbole. However, PR is extremely irrelevant and not everything, but with that said, PR is often all we have to look at. Things like SEOmoz's linkscape tool are changing that, but for a long time is was all we had to go on.

More PR Insanity

The only reason I can think that a domain with zero backlinks would have PR is if it's seen as being associated with some other domain. For example, a subdomain. But who knows...Google's secrecy will keep us all guessing.

What is the best Type of Paid for Service for SEO

Ideally, you'd pay for great content. The trouble is that most of the people offering content will give you crappy articles no one wants to read. You can't buy canned "great content"...however, if you have a truly great idea for content, then sink some money into making it happen. If not...

Why is Google not indexing my pages?

Get more links to your website. One of the reasons Google might not index a page is it thinks it's not important enough.

If all of our problems are tied to housing, then the pain may have just begun. Plenty of cities experienced real estate bubbles that have barely deflated. Some areas still have another 20%+ to go down.

.mobi What do you think of spouses.mobi, sele.mobi and upandcoming.mobi?

IMHO, reg fee. Those aren't valuable keywords and they're not particularly apt for mobile use.

.mobi The importance of indexing & SEO ...

I don't see what difference it makes because people don't type in XYZ mobile site. They just look for the normal site from their mobile.

What are your ideas on social bookmarking sites?

You've got to make content that fits the audience. If you browse top digged stuff on digg, for example, you'll start to get a feel for the type of content that succeeds there. Each social network has its own tastes. I've made content specifically for specific social media sites and it has...

Al Gore presents the .eco domain

I don't understand the argument that each new TLD forces brands into buying it to protect their trademark. If someone registers CocaCola.eco, what's the worst that could happen? On the off chance .eco becomes a huge hit, then use cyber squatting laws to get the name back. If .eco is not a huge...
