I feel guilty that I can’t offer more
I wish I could offer my readers more specifics about making money online instead of ranting about smarties and the web 2.0 revolution.
I know what readers want. They want SPECIFICS. They want to know how to rank higher in google and yahoo and how to get more traffic for less money and work. They want to know which affiliate programs to promote, which have the highest ROI (return on investment).
Here is the problem. I don’t know the answers to those questions. If anyone does, they aren’t going to disclose them on a blog anyway.
I could write tutorials, but I woudn’t a very good job at it. Slightlyshadyseo has some great tutorials on improving your affilaite marketing efforts if you’re wondering where to find some.
Search engines are still hopelessly confusing. For example, I can rank my website coolonlinelayouts.com in Yahoo for the following semi-competitive keywords; Skinny Myspace Layouts and Default Myspace Layouts but in Google the site doesn’t rank well for any keywords. On the other hand, Myspace-resource.info doesn’t rank well in yahoo at all but ranks well in MSN.
Both sites have simlar content and similar domain age. Myspace-resource.info has many more inbound links than coolonlinelayouts but for some reason yahoo is favoring the later site while shunning myspace-resource.info. Makes no ****ing sense to me.
This is why I can’t offer more because the world of SEO and internet marketing is so confounding and dynamic, unlike physics and mathematics which has immutable axioms and laws.

Hey thanks for the mention man.
As for myspace-resource.info, I can’t say what separates it from the others. but what I can say is that it has no text that is unlinked, which Google/Yahoo(most of the time?) greatly disliked.
Try writing a crap 2-3 paragraphs on the main page. Even a mission statement or something. I suspect you’ll see at least a little progress.
