Cheap Web Hosting That Doesn’t Suck
Finding cheap web hosting that doesn’t suck is sometimes easier said than done. When I launched my first blog, I had no idea where to begin. I did some Google searches, I asked some blogger pals, and I checked out the hosts that WordPress recommended. In the end, I pinned the proverbial [...]
SEOAly’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe from IM Spring Break
I’ve had a couple people ask for the chocolate chip cookie recipe from IM Spring Break, so I just decided to publish it. I cannot take credit for writing this recipe. It is a variation of the Original NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe that I just tinkered around with a bit. [...]

I read a post recently that made me laugh, but not for the right reasons. On the other hand, it also made me think about how easy it is for someone who is new to Twitter and the Social Media sphere in general to make a huge mistake and alienate a [...]
Ignorant Do-It-Yourselfers & Their SEO Fiascoes: The Real Trouble With Search Engine Optimization

Trying to capitalize on that site’s popularity, Economist? I think not. [...]

Thanks to Jeremy Weiss for the invitation! While I’ve not had much time to play around and/or familiarize myself with it’s individual features in comparison [...]
Why I Love SEO
There appear to be some who misinterpreted my previous post regarding SEO consultation as negative toward the SEO industry as a whole. Nothing could be further from the truth. I love SEO. I think it’s fun. Then again, I’m kind of a geek. Luckily I’ve always been comfortable embracing my geekdom. I like researching terms…I [...]
The SEOmoz Expert Quiz Is Fixed!
I reported last week sometime that the SEOmoz Expert Quiz wasn’t recording all the answers. Don’t think I didn’t freak out a bit when I took it and only got a 50-something percent! As I scrolled down the page I quickly realized that it didn’t record all of my answers…WHEW – [...]
