SEOprofiler – One of the Reasons Why MyPE Ranks High
Simple - we spend a lot of time optimising our articles and your listings in the MyPE Business Directory. In the early days (2004) it was relatively easy to gain good rankings but, as more and more websites entered our space to compete, we had to up our game somewhat and I invested in the Axandra desktop SEO Software programme. Axandra is the companion programme to SEOprofiler - an online SEO, Linking and Social Media Management programme. If SEOprofiler is half as good as Axandra then we … [Read more...] about SEOprofiler – One of the Reasons Why MyPE Ranks High
Search Engine Optimisation Take Aways from the Jeffreys Bay East Cape Tourism Indaba
So, sitting in a Jeffreys Bay shopping mall and giving search engine optimisation advice is a pretty new thing for me - the last time I was in such a structured environment was when exhibiting at the Rand Easter Show during the late eighties.

But with the plethora of social networking sites being touted as the best thing since peanut butter and bacon sandwiches many web site owners seem to have lost the plot and are spending more time on making people like Marck Zuckerberg rich than focusing on their own web sites - watch Facebook the … [Read more...] about SEO Explained in 3 Minutes
Stuff Away Sunshine
Back in the day when Yahoo was still king of the throne and websites were designed with nasty table layouts, Ariel or Comic Sans fonts and just really crappy colours you could get away with keyword stuffing. You could stuff your site with all the keywords you could think of and become king of the hill in no time. And today? Nope, no more keyword stuffing. Today the story is much different, Google runs the show and with good reason. If you want to be on top of the ranks, you will have to earn … [Read more...] about Stuff Away Sunshine
