I did some minor changes to the site and majority of the outgoing links are nofollow now. I was contemplating on this move for a long long time and I believe having a nofollow site definitely has its perks.
I don’t think that the nofollow tags would have immediate effect on Google SEO, probably I’ll see results in 1 or 2 months time?

 Here are a few pointers to help you out for those who want to optimize their site for search engine purposes. Although I might not be ultimate expert, but sometimes sticking to the basics would go a long way for you.
Here are the tips:
1. Title – It’s important to have appropriate title for your site and sub-pages or articles as well.
2. Meta-tags – Both the meta-tags for keywords and description should focus on the keywords that you are targeting
3. Links – Always build links using the keywords which you are targeting. There is a certain ‘validity period’ which Google take into consideration – so it’s wise to continuously build links
4. Keywords – Try using the keywords that you are targeting as many times as possible in your article or generally on your blog as Google would allocate another point for your search engine ranking on this as well
5. Valid HTML – Make sure that your site contains as little error as possible, so that Google spiders/bots could easily scan through your site without incurring HTML error
6. H1, H2 tags – If possible, try highlighting your title or keywords which you are targeting with H1 or H2 tags
It doesn’t require a rocket scientist to understand basic SEO concepts. Try out these simple methods on your site.

 I love gadget sites – once I have found a good one I will stick to it for a long time, just to stay updated with the latest tech news. Well in fact, if you are looking for a great gadget site, you can’t go wrong with GadgetAdvisor.com.
Some of their featured news for the month includes a universal remote control namely the Logitech Harmony Advanced Universal Remote Control which you can use it to control all your home entertainment systems (isn’t that convenient?). Also, do take a look at their network media player review as well. And as for people who are looking for online backup services – see how Mozy Pro can help you.

Oh gawd, not another one! It seems Google has been updating their PR table more often then ever. I noticed that they have another PR update today, on the 10th October 2008, and as always, it’s full of surprises.
 I did a check online and none of the SEO related sites have reported this on their blog yet (hopefully I’m the first one though). On of the most interesting articles I found online was on Sphinn, with Matt Cutts as one of the participants.
This is what he said:
ChrisLang, we're always trying to improve our link analysis with algorithmic changes to reduce the weight of paid links that pass PageRank or to better discern what types of links add lots of value to users.
I'm glad that new PageRanks showed up this weekend as expected; after this toolbar update, I expect us to get back to the normal 3-4 month cycle.
AND
reviewmyplace, it's just a toolbar PageRank update. Even if you don't show much PageRank, Google still has 200+ other signals we use in our ranking. It's definitely common to see lower-PageRank sites ranking above higher-PageRank sites--which tends confuses the people who obsess too much about PageRank and who don't focus on other factors that search engines might use to rank pages.
Both the messages were posted 12 days ago – during the first update for the month of October. He mentioned, ‘after this toolbar update, I expect us to get back to the normal 3-4 month cycle.’
Let’s hope that Google DO go back to the 3-4 months cycle after this – as I have a lot of stake when it comes to PR.

Paid blogging is part of my online income – although other ‘professional bloggers’ criticizes this form of money making opportunity, like all business-minded people, Money is Money.
I’ve already listed all my money generation secrets on my make money online guides and I have also conveniently placed links below the top taskbar so that you could follow the step-by-step guide to help you get started in making money online.
I’ve been participating on BuyBlogReviews.com for quite sometime now and I’m rating them a very low 2/5.
Why?
At first glance, although they have a huge database of available opportunities on their site for bloggers, somehow they didn’t do a thorough planning for their payment part. Unlike PayPerPost.com and SponsoredReviews.com, advertisers who want to advertise on these sites are required to pay an upfront fee before placing orders. I don’t think the same goes for BuyBlogReviews.com.
Each completed assignments would require advertiser’s approval – I’ve had 5 assignments pending their approval for close to 3 weeks now. I’ve also emailed the admin requesting them to check out what’s the problem and they have yet to reply me.
I believe that their system is skewed towards advertiser’s benefits – and for unlucky bloggers like me, you’ll get cheated off paid reviews without the advertiser ever paying you a single cent for your hard work.
On other thoughts, this gives me an idea –
Why don’t I create lots of advertising accounts on BuyBlogReviews.com, ask bloggers to write reviews for me, and NOT PAY THEM A SINGLE CENT?
