An update on my SEO Experience.....

Posted By: MaaMaw

Next time I seem to be drifting in this direction...

WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE SMACK ME UPSIDE THE HEAD??????

Holy crapoly!!

Luckily, I decided to experiment with a page that was Result #451 on Google when I did a search for "giraffe," so I really had nothing to lose.

That's a darn good thing, because the same page -- optimized to the best of my ability and the last of my hair -- is now nowhere to be found in the FIRST THOUSAND RESULTS on Google.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

Mind you, it is showing up as something like #18 on a search for "giraffe facts," which is just dandy except for the fact that "giraffe facts" is searched a few hundred times each month, and "giraffe" is searched roughly 38,000 times.

The reason I subjected myself to this kind of torture is simple:

I don't get any traffic from common animals that get the most searches, and if I could remedy that situation, I feel sure I would be able to at least double my Adsense income, more likely quadruple it.

Anyhoo, when I set up my last form of interactivity, I checked it upside down and sideways and all the links worked; mysteriously, the interior anchor links no longer work on IE (dead as a doornail going down, work fine coming up, which is 100% worthless)... so I guess it's probably a good thing visitors didn't come swarming to my Giraffe Encounter.

Well... back to the drawing board.

I wish I could just scrap the whole bloody SEO thing, but I'm much too obsessive compulsive for that.  I can't rest until I conquer the beast!!

Now I'm debating whether I want to cut my Giraffe into several pages; i.e., Giraffe Habitat, Giraffe Behavior, Giraffe Whatever... or keep it whole.

Ohhhhhh, decisions decisions.

AAARRRGGGHHH!!

Luv,

MaaMaw

P.S.  I think another reason I'm so stuck on this is that once I leave it behind, I'll have to deal with rewriting and finding photos for 425 more critters, and that's a nasty thought indeed.

NOTICE TO SCUMBEEZLES
(you know who you are... you scream "Foul!" when the truth comes out)
        PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT.  It has been done before, but never successfully.  In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
        If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace.
        NEWS FLASH:  I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday.  I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish.  I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?).  I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" 
        Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures.

        Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.  We are not responsible or liable for any claim arising from the content of any such discussions or postings or for any error, defamation, libel, slander, omission, falsehood, obscenity, pornography, profanity, danger, or inaccuracy contained in any information contained within such locations on the Site.
        You are prohibited from posting or transmitting any unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, scandalous, inflammatory, pornographic, or profane materials or any material that could constitute or encourage conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any law.  You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual.  We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials.
        By posting messages and/or content on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, you give permission for Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications to display, distribute and use the posting and content for publication, advertising, promotion, excerption or example. You grant Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications complete, perpetual, but non-exclusive rights to use, archive, reproduce, adapt, modify, distribute, sub-license, repurpose, rework, compile, or offer for sale or resale the messages, postings or content appearing on this site in whole or in part, throughout the world and universe, on a royalty-free basis without remuneration.  If you cannot accept or agree with the terms of service for this website and discussion board, you are advised not to post on this board.
        In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact.
        And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!).
