Today (Starting at 12:01 a.m. EDT on Saturday, June 13) Facebook usernames became active. What this means, is that if you want to give out the address to your profile page to someone, you can now give them an easy to remember name, rather than the old profile ID.
You only get to choose your username once, and it cant be changed or transferred, so you MUST choose wisely. Read the rest of this entry »
I have been needing to shorten my URL’s quite a bit lately, while at the same time keep track of how many clicks they get with some sort of statistics. I previously wrote a post about a website called ClickAudit.com (Hiding and tracking affiliate links), which has since stopped offering this very service, and think I need to just update you on what I am using now as my Clickaudit.com alternative.

I have recently come to the conclusion that Google really really likes well designed websites. We have a client at work who’s webiste we market online. Over the last couple of weeks we made a variety of changes to the website code. Our aim was to analyse the site, identify elements in the code that could be holding the site back in the search engine results, and rectify the problems. Read the rest of this entry »
With your adwords campaign its possible to get excellent results when using proper keyword matching. Google offer the options of Broad Match, Phrase Match, Exact Match and Negative Match when setting up your key words and phrases for your online advertising campaign. By effectively using these features, its possible to create what is referred to as an Embedded Match.
It seems that Google has indeed increased the frequency in its PageRank updates. I have seen a definite change on sites that I am working with. Quite a few of the sites suddenly went up one point, and upon investigating a bit, (thanks Search Engine Journal) it seems I am not the only one. Read the rest of this entry »

Free $100 PPC targeted Facebook advertising from VISA

Normally I hate all these invitations to applications that I get sent on Facebook.com, but this morning I was surprised to see a cool application, that can be used to grow your business, and the bonus is that they actually give you $100 free advertising credit for you business on Facebook.
There is NO obligation to buy anything, put down a deposit, or anything, its great!
I have been using flock for a little while now, and am pretty impressed to say the least. In fact, I urge you to give it a test run. Visit Flock.com to download it for FREE right now!
Firefox is a browser that I really really like, its fast, easy to use and the amount of great extensions available is insane! The main reason I originally stopped using the very crappy Internet Explorer, is because of the way it rendered CSS in websites I was working on. Basically it did, and in some instances STILL displays the CSS incorrectly, making your well designed websites look crappy! This is NOT a problem with real browsers like Firefox and Flock.
