There is a lot of searches for the keywords in my title. Yes I see them at least twice a week on my blog stats.

I suddenly realized the power of that plug in. It tells you where your visitor came from, what link they clicked and what keyword they used to find you! What else do you need?

If you are a small business you need to keep your content updated and fresh to make Google happy. Here is a list of things to do to make Google happy

• More than one page. More like 5-7 pages(the more the better).
• Unique content.
• Fresh content added on the site regularly.
• Adding content regularly helps websites rank well in the search engines and in turn improves your PPC quality score.
• The content needs to be written for humans but also optimized for certain keywords.
• A website with a blog. Google loves blogs. Google has a separate search facility just for blogs. www.blogsearch.google.com
• People read posts and leave comments. This helps your website rank better for relevant keywords.
• Readers will subscribe to your feeds. (Feeds are like newsletters).
• Other blogs will link to your posts. Inbound links is loved by Google.
• A good Goggle compliant xml sitemap.
• Each page optimized for titles, headers and sub headers. (Helps Google find you easier
• Each page optimized with tags – These are like signposts for search engines.
• Privacy, disclosure policy at the bottom

Wordpress as a CMS for business does all the above. I can provide a website that is compliant with all the above points. contact me for more information.

In the world of spam, what goes down must come up.
Spam actually went down after the shutting down of the webhost McColo. Some 450,000 infected computers have been spotted trying to connect to the largest of the networks McColo hosted. A news item in BBC website.
Apparently McColo served as host to a number of “command and control” centres for botnets, networks of infected computers called bots that send spam and engage in other malicious activities. As there is no centralized command the bot owners will be looking for new hosts.
FireEye security firm has found  450,000 infected computers from one botnet. This accounts for almost half the spam in the world!
Christmas time is an active time for spam. So to fill in the gap with low spam other hosts have increased their activity. So yes very soon they will reach the old levels again. All we can do is have good virus protection and anti spam programs to combat these viruses. Is your computer protected?
I use Pareto Logic anti spam and virus protection. I strongly encourage you to get your computer protected against these vicious programs.
