I’ve been enjoying some great StumbleUpon traffic for the last few days to most of my sites. When I checked my referral logs, I noticed that the referrals were coming from StumbleUpon Referral Page. It was meant to be a source for webmasters receiving traffic from StumbleUpon to get even more traffic via paid traffic.

I always admired other SEO’s like Shoemoney who have their own personal blog which receives a ton of attention from other bloggers. Well I’ve decided to start my own personal blog, since I don’t like posting a ton of my personal information on an SEO-based News Blog. I’m also starting my own personal blog because I wanted some content on the new subdomain WordPress Blog Hosting website I started, 66 Blogs.

If you ever want to read up on what I’m doing on the internet or how I’m living my life, feel free to read Sixty6’s Personal Blog. I don’t plan on updating it on a constant rate, but I will update it every now and then!

I thought this was an interesting read where Shoemoney was banned from MyBlogLog (but they made up later) and found yet another MyBlogLog exploit a few posts later!

It seems that DDN found out that the JavaScript code that is loaded with MyBlogLog tracks clicks made on your advertisements on Google AdSense as well as Yahoo! Publisher Network (YPN). He made a test page and placed a Google Advertisement on a blank page with the MyBlogLog code and recorded the commands being sent out by their JavaScript code. If you don’t understand, you can simply view his great video here.

It seems that the SEO industry is really grabbing the attention of everyone on the web. Now more and more people are learning about Search Engine Optimization and creating companies which offer Search Placement services (a few are even advertising on the blog). Well I stumbled upon a new thread on DigitalPoint where a member was offering his SEO services for free, as long as members leave him feedback that he can reference for future SEO clients.

I decided to give the guy a shot at one of my websites, Sixty6 Arcade, to rank for Free Online Flash Games, which is currently ranking in Google at 266. I created an account with DigitalPoint Keyword Tracking Tools and so far I haven’t broken the 200 mark. It’s been a week, and I’m supposed to receive results this following month. If he can get me in the top 25, I’ll be publishing his contact details for anyone else interested in paid SEO Services.

I’ve been away for a while, but I just got my new Windows Vista laptop and I’m back to blogging on a regular basis! So when I got back, I quickly glanced through my feeds and I was bought to Quadzilla’s Second Linkbait Poker Tournament! I classified it as linkbait because SEO’s participating in this tournament are anticipating a ton of links to their blog, right?

I’ve been toying around with Technorati WTF (which stands for “Where’s the Fire”) and I’ve been watching it for a while. In fact, a few minutes ago I created a WTF for Dave Pasternack.

Since this is an SEO Blog, I thought it would only be fair if I actually talked about the one person who made this all possible by inventing Search Engine Optmization - Dave Pasternack. Dave Pasternack was the first to discover the potential of Search Engine Marketing by optimizing your websites for Search Engines.

Google has definitely become a part of everyone’s lives - internet savvy and computer illeterate users use Google on at least a weekly, if not daily basis. However, many people use Google as a reference engine to check the background of someone’s history on the web. A documentary movie has now been created which revolves around this concept - Google Me: The Movie.

Jim Killeen entered his name into Google to see what kind of results would come up. Little did he know that there were numerous other Jim Killeens in the world which ranged from a priest to someone who starved himself for a cause. This movie is basically a documentary of one Jim Killeen going out to meet with others who share his name.

You can watch the trailer here.

A lot of people may have already noticed the Google Personalized results which may affect the Search Engine Results Pages (SERP’s) when you’re logged into your Google Account (via cookie).

I thought it was amusing that during the Super Bowl XLI today, they aired a mention for GoDaddy with the slogan “GoDaddy: Make a .com with us”. There was also a commercial for GoDaddy which can be seen here.

Now this got me thinking, are companies starting to get so big that they don’t care how big their audience is? I mean people who watched the Super Bowl XLI today (and sadly saw the Bears lose to the Colts) has a huge diversity in age, profession and interest. Obviously there are a good amount of people who work with websites on the net, but that is only a small percentage compared to the entire audience that advertisement was shown to.

When companies get bigger, are they going to advertise their service in as many spots they can find and reap in as many customers as possible?
