Buying Sites

If you are into search engine optimization, one of the newer strategies to come along is to find existing sites, buy them and then optimize them for monetization.  Many web developers have built great sites that are already indexed and are well linked to other important sites, however they may not know how to monetize their site or don’t have the interest in monetization and may be willing to pass these sites off to you for a price.

One of the best ways to find sites that can be great investments is to actively search for them.  Most people do not know the true value of their web sites, especially when they the sites are older and are only getting a few dozen hits per day.  However, search engines like older, established web sites and a search engine optimizer can come along and maximize this advantage.

Buying sites can range from a few hundred dollars to thousands of dollars.  Although, there is an initial investment, search engine optimizers can usually get a great return on their investment in just a couple of months.  If you are looking for a great way to maximize your optimization skills, look to buying establish web sites and monetize them.

Business Blogs

Blogs are quickly becoming one of the best advertising tools for businesses as well as personal web sites.  If you have a business, it is no longer important just to have a web site up and running, many search engine optimizers are now telling businesses to also put blogs up as well.  Here are some tips on blogs.

Blogs are a great way to have an active conversation with your customer base.  Blogs are a quick and easy way to constantly communicate to visitors about new products that are coming out, explain current products, bring up articles of interest and other on topic content that can lead to customers learning more about your business and participate on your blog.

Blogs are extremely easy to set up.  Many people put blogs on their web site with the help of Wordpress.  Wordpress is a free open source program that can help you reach millions of people that may be interested in your products or industry. Blogs can also help you raise the importance of your web site and have a great affect on its page rankings in the search engine index.  You can see your web site take off with the proper blog in place.  If you are looking to have a successful business web site or presence on the web, look into creating a business blog.

Bluenoser Forum Update

Well I think that I am just about ready to unleash The Bluenoser Forum to the world.  I have completed adding the topics that I would like to discuss, and am just about finished the Quick Reply Mod.

I am however going to simply Keep the default theme for the time being.  That is something that I am going to change when I do the redesign of the entire site.  It is going to be a lot of work to get the site on the go, but I am going to be looking forward to discussing the topics that I picked on a daily basis, and I am hoping that others will feel the same way too.

For a sneak peak go to http://forums.bluenoser.net I know that the the logo isn’t right, that is something that I have to fix soon and will.  Registration is open so if you don’t want to wait till the official opening, then don’t :)

If there is anything that you would like to see added please let me know and I will see what I can do.  I am not going to install many mods other than the quick reply since phpBB 3 should be coming out by the end of the summer and I am going to upgrade to that at the soonest.
