Online-marketing & SEO pseudo-idiots

   This article is not going to be educational, it is not going to be even related to facts from the SEO and the Online marketing - JUST like the people this article is all about. And I am talking about pseudo experienced and "skillful" idiot bloggers out there in the wild, talking bullshit all the time, writing theories about how this and that should be done in general terms, just because people like to hear advices that look trustfull (e.g "breath in and breath out - That's the trick of breathing! Nice huh? Isn't that blackhat ;) You didn't know about that right). And most of the people reading their blogs will automatically say - YEAH, it's logical, it's amazing how could they know that, those are Pros. No man, those are idiots - and you are far more idiotic to read and follow their advices. And do you know why, just because those people need experience and skills in the SEO and Online marketing just like you - they just do not want to admit it.

    Number one in the chart I should present with honours - Rand Fishkin. That little annoying beared dwarf talking about SEO on SEOmoz, advicing webmasters and blog visitors to... actually to be stupid enough to sit and wait for him to finally write something usefull or specific. Will tell you something 0day, something private that no one else will tell you... a little secret - 
Rand Fishkin
has never written a single usefull article for SEO and/or Online marketing. Long time ago I used to look around for other people that really care and deal with SEO, research algorythms, analyze SE behaviour, have some tech-background (WEB/Networking skills) or at least one of those things, and Rand was the first I gave up with. After reading his every new post for a month or two or three, thinking "Ok, he must have nothing specific to write about right now, but he seems like a guy with self-confidence in what he deals with, that has something to share, something smart..", but I finally gave up. This gnomish wannabe-somebody guy just likes to talk and talk and write and write. He has the unique skill to write a thousand words, 
and actually not to say anything with them!
Can you do that? I don't think so. He clearly has shown many times that he has absolutely no idea how a web-site/server operates, how a site is being made or build, how to do a real SEO (because it involves much of this
knowledge I mentioned),  he is not even aware of the essential stuff around the Search Engines - their crawlers/bots, their partial algorithms that anyone can track down for a few months, their indexing and caching speed, reaction behaviour, penalty cases or smth.,etc. He has no clue how the domain business is organized, how to go international in your online business. Finally, I get to the point 
he may be good enough for the USA - after all Americans are retarded slow-thinking enough to believe such an idiot in the Web. He just knows what everyone else knows about the World Wide Web optimization - the basics, and his favourite is to rephrase and extend those basics with in articles, to rewrite this, rewrite that, say in a different way... he just likes to have some attention targeted at him :)  Seriously, Rand, get a life, and read some valuable info - not bloggers like you.

     Second in the Chart, but with honesty the one I like - Shoemoney. This guy has been making posts related to so many bullshit themes, he's been always talking on how to get money out of internet, how to get rich or whatsoever, just because he makes money that way. He makes money when stupid readers believe in him, believe in what he is saying and writing (which may be a total truth, but in any case useless for the online business truth). He's been making money from the stupidity of his visitors.

4 Steps to make money from your site being SPAMed

What is webspam?
OK. Everybody who reads this knows what spam is, therefore I assume most of you know what web spam is. For the others who have no idea I may say that this basically is unwanted content - text, links, banners, etc., made on your site or forum or blog by bots or human beings with the one and only purpose - advertising and marketing, as well as delivering high amounts of traffic from the search engines like Google to the products offered by the web-spam. No matter how it will affect the reputation of the product or website it shouts about, web-spam is intended to cover as many places it can get into as its possible, and to "infect" them with HUGE amount of content, in order to make use of the public it will be visible to (web crawlers and people).

Where is webspam targeted and what it really is?
Now think of what are the targets of such web-spam. First of all the most attacked sites by web-spammers are the public Forums. You all know what forum is and what is its purpose. Web Forums are places where people can communicate with each other, share opinions, post articles, news, suggestions, discuss everything they want. So replace "people" with "web-spam bots". For one potential web-spam bot this is opportunity to post in public huge amounts of content relevant to the product it is intended to popularize and advertise. You all have seen such posts e.g. "Buy cheap Viagra!" "New Paris Hilton video" "Penis enlargement with pills", etc. of course followed with numerous links to the products(sites).

Sit tight...
Now I will get more specific about this. To understand what you are going to read you may need basic SEO (Search Engine Optimization) knowledge and experience. We (you and I) all know how demanding is for a website to have MUCH content, updated content, relevant content to rank in the SERPs(search engine result pages) , in other words as the famous slogan I may say "Content is King". So do not think of web-spam as spam, think of it as content, because that is what it actually is - MUCH content.

That was preface, now the recipe:
1. First you will need one platform where public content can be posted freely. Even without login. The best choice is a highly used forum or blog, in order to make it easier for the bots to access and post.
2. Second you need to narrow a new site of yours relevant to a type of content among the usually spammed for (adult, drugs, gambling, etc.) you will some how make profit of. AdSense, Affiliate programs, Referrals, you name it.
3. Third step is to setup the platform and the site, interlinked of course and to popularize them a bit, just a bit. One advice, make a filter of your platform - censure filter in order to prevent posts containing words not relevant to the products you want to sell. For example if you rank for Adult Content filter Drugs and Gambling. Also you need to disable URL posting in the content which bots post on your public platform. We do not want others to profit from the spam on your site, no matter it is made by others (HUZZAH!).
4 . Fourth you need to do only one thing, enter the platform (blog or forum) you have made once a week and delete all the spam in it.

If you still cannot get the idea here is the explanation. So as a human this whole parade seems to you just like a stupid forum, outrageously infected by spam and a lazy Administrator who rarely cleans the useless stuff from the platform.
But for a web crawler (Googlebot) this seems like a very popular site, non-stop supported, updated and even with relevant content. So what happened we have the magic recipe: MUCH content, updated content, relevant content. And soon you will see how boosting it is for your site and platform to develop and rank highly and get tons of visits from the SERPs.

Of course that is just one thing or trick you can do to get high amounts of traffic to your profitable site non-legal useless(or not) site. There are many, many others you first have to do before getting to such nasty tricks. But anyway I saw it with my own eyes. While I was SEOing and climbing my way up the SERP stairs for Gambling content, the very fact that this situation happened on my forum brought to my site visits from searches like "volvo" "naked teenage girls" and more. Now I admit that in this case I have very off-topic and not-relevant traffic brought to my site which would be almost useless, but just imagine what happens when the spam content is filtered and targeted.

Imagine... and enjoy!

Web Directories manually penalized by Google!

It would be ridiculous if we say we did not see this coming but after all we all did not want to believe it will happen. Already a fact - Google started manually removing from rating in the SERPs some of the well known (or not so, at least for me) web directories.
Anyway as it seems in some news posts the specific reason has not come from the inside of the G. Rumors say that Rand Fishkin (SEOmoz), who people know as a complainer against and disliker of link buying, expressed his dislike against the link buying to his buddy Matt Cutts (no need to explain who he is) and the result was Matt Cutts manually penalizing some web directories (not sure whether by himself or not:}) . Very nasty of Rand in my opinion... but anyway here are known directories penalized:

Aviva
Alive
Big Web Links
ewebpages
Directory Dump
Elegant Directory

Raven from raven doesn't take off an eye, but Spamer from spamer does take spam!

Anyway the title sounds much better in Bulgarian as a saying. It looks like some idiots are spamming my posts in Netscape which is totally annoying and definitely not sexy, and right at this very moment I am reporting them all to the webmasters :} Am I paradoxical ?! Yes I am.

More Business , More Money ...more busy:}

This week seems to be endless , especially for me who now deals with such a competition that no marketing specialist wants to deal with. Do not want to be boring or obsolete but just if someone wants to know what exactly makes me feels this way, it is the fact that now I am advertising/PR-ing a business in the field of money transfer, with weak and not-so-important competitors like WesternUnion, MoneyBookers, MoneyGram, CitiBank, and other 'small' companies. Anyway it seems that for a couple of days I managed to get to 2nd - 2nd and a half (2-2.5) position right after WU, which makes me one proud promoter (money spender). So much for the work-for-salary bullshit.
I have managed to get to very interesting news from the online-poker niche. As soon as I see or feel some of my time free I will post them in the new news section of Fresh-Poker, which for now I leave only as a mention, idea or just a concept, so that you can all experience the impression of the new thing at once, unexpectedly (yeah right?). Along with this I have so much to reform in the FP that I almost make myself have a headache... almost. I have new content , an extended one for the poker rules section (very useful one), as well as some articles and impressions from experienced poker players about the poker rooms they prefer, and that is for the Poker articles section.

To Be Continued...

online poker news

As most of you probably know I am in the Online Gambling business dealing mainly with internet poker. So as being the CEO of Fresh-Poker and not so addicted poker player I have added some links to valuable poker news and articles my staff have recently published. You can see them at the left side of my blog in the "Poker news" section which I plan to update every week with the latest gambling researches and advices from my staff.

Home Sweet Home(/Country?)

At least some relax. I guess it's good to be back home... and back in Bulgaria, since I spent almost 3 years in Germany wasting my time with various things like pretending to study Computer Science and Communication Engineering, then some Computer Engineering, paralelly to this working 6-7 different jobs like cleaner, inventory auditor, emergency squad guy in the biggest steel production factory (Thyssen Krup Steel), etc. In other words not only wasting my time but wasting myself BUT, there's always but, because I gained very precious experience living by myself.
There I had the chance to develop or maybe in other words redevelop a SEO system consisting of very very dirty BlackHat SEO tricks and principles , having also the basic whitehat ones:} I tried to stay at least at my knowledge level in Networking and Network Security but... I guess I have to work hard to catch up.
Anyway this week (which is already to its end thank God) I started working as Online Marketing Specialist (AKA SEO) which I find very interessting having in mind my experience (personal:}) but... I really don't have the chance to use the good old white/black hat tactics I prefer and I am rather encaged by the Managers to spend money to get money (for them of course), which works at some level but I think of it as stupid, incompetent, less effective and million miles(visits/conversions?) away from the real professional SEO. It's just that in my mind SEO consist paid advertising but NOT ONLY!
I guess I started making of myself a typical workaholic or a person haunted by the things he have to do at work but no, not me:} just expressing my opinion. I'll remember my thoughts and will continue the post later...

First week, first impressions

Just created blogger... I suppose I will need this type of posting daily/weekly/whenever-ly to keep in touch with my thoughts constantly flowing without any control or organization because of my tons of different activities and ideas. Will post later because I cannot risk of exposing that I blog instead of reading documentation which I am already mostly familiar with... but anyway just wanted to have a first post... it's a 'first-things' week so... here I am:}
