Creating a Better Link Building Strategy Links are the bread and butter of SEO, and probably one of the most important ranking factors around. What makes link building so valuable and, dare I say it, even fun at times, is that there is no limit as to how many quality, inbound links you can develop for your site.

There is nothing particularly glamorous about link building, but if you want to have any chance of your SEO succeeding, it has got to be done! Here are 4 ways to build a better link building strategy that you won't get sick of: Guest Blog Posts Companies that are having a hard time keeping up with the content writing schedule for their own blog may cringe at the thought of adding guest blog posts into the mix, but it's a great way to diversify yo...

# 3. Blog Essentials - Font Size and Style Most web designers agree that a 12-14 pt font is best. You can use up to 3-4 different font sizes throughout your blog. More than that and it looks junky. When choosing a font style, keep it simple and avoid the fancy fonts. Know that not all computers can display all fonts. Choose fonts that are considered "Web Font Safe." These are available on most computers. Examples of Web Font Safe fonts are: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, Geneva and Veranda. These fonts are san-serif, fonts that do not have little hooks or serifs on the end of the letters. Not having these hooks makes it easier to read the text on our computer monitors. Have you noticed? I have the "hooks" at the end of each letter. The hooks almost make the lettering look like script. I knew something was off but not until I was researching material for this blog did I realize what the problem was. So with my next blog you will see san-...

# 5. Blog Essentials - Headings All headings should be bolded and/or underlined. Place your headline on the left side of your blog. this will support the results from the study on F-shaped pattern eye tracking.

How Websites Make Money Off of Us Here are 10 tricks that websites use to make money off of us: 1. Adware - As if your proclivity for shopping online isn't enough of a financial burden, now these websites are collecting your shopping info so they can sell you even more unnecessary stuff. I don't need someone keeping track of my spending habits, unless it's my accountant. And now that I think about it, I'm not really so sure about him either. 2. Pop-up ads - Sure, you can filter them out, or just close them yourself. for the most part; but then there are the ones that move around when you try to click on them, or activate an ad regardless of where you click the window. I honestly don't know how this seemed like a good idea for sales, but I guess it must work on some people because they just keep popping up. 3. Selling your personal info - Why does every e-merchant need to know that you've just purchased an ionic air humidifier for R1...
