The Cooneys : The World of SEO Continues to Change

Thu, 3 May 2012 05:57:31 +0000

One interesting and potentially sneaky byproduct of all this is if this does come to pass and competitors DO bait links so sites get penalized, Google will become armed with a huge list of Link Farms that they can start taking down.

I know myself that I\\\'ve been researching web spam links myself to renewable my site. I\\\'m sure there are sites not yet on Googles\\\'s \\\'take down\\\' radar that they\\\'ll get from my list.

Is there a secret agenda for this latest Google Rucus and is this it?

GeekandJock Facebook Page is over at https://www.facebook.com/GeekandJock
For traffic, assisting others and hopefully increasing the small profits that the site makes, people are shoehorned into getting back into their good graces. They own the biggest playing field so they own the ball and they make up the rules that you need to abide by - they don\\\'t have to :)

I do understand that Golden Vision of a fair playing field. But it\\\'s like piracy and rules, in general - they will always be ways around them, no matter what the blocking attempts. Penalizing good quality sites isn\\\'t the answer, in my opinion.

And thanks for the visit and comment, Adam.

Most multi-national companies are pretty evil anyway - that places Google then as evil :)

There war on making a level playing field just allows people to re-adjust their strategies to plot against competitors now. Google have done nothing except shift the goal posts to cause havoc. Anti-competitive link farms will now pop up.

Gosh, this is going to get real messy, real quick, if you ask me!

GeekandJock : Weekend Getaways to Keep It Fresh

Tue, 1 May 2012 01:20:31 +0000

Thanks for your visit and thoughts, Hasmik – great to hear other people’s views.

Home can certainly be a good choice for some romance, I agree. Point of the post is exploring alternatives, outside of the norm. So if you’re home with your partner for most of the time, a change from your normal environment can often ‘spark a spark’.
To keep things fresh, it’s good to mix things up a bit and move outside what you normally do, day to day.

GeekandJock : Review of MarketMeSuite

Thanks for the visit and comment, Risa.
Interestingly, I was on the verge of a refund myself. I saw some significant value in what they were doing with the platform however their User Interface really sucked. Lots of suggestions came from me to them too.

That said, their new web based platform really is pretty good and a good improvement on their v2. Give it a trial since it is free (to a point).

Black Love And Marriage.com : Relationship Rule to Break: Never Argue In Front Of The Kids

Thu, 26 Apr 2012 05:49:19 +0000

And what an excellent matra it is too, Stacy. It's so true in a relationship or marriage as well as out (in a divorce, I mean). A couple should never ever use children as a weapon or a wedge, in a dispute. That's both unfair as well as forcing the kids to basically choose a side ... and that's plain BS. My wife and I have the same sort of motto - let our kids see us how we would love them to end up, in their own loving relationship. And it works a treat too.

Hey there Bec - thanks so much for your comment. Great to see new people reading and letting us know their thoughts on our material. And WOW, what a success story you've got to tell too!

Actually, MarketMeSuite's new version has changed significantly these days. And by significantly, I mean, for the better too. I was initially skeptical on being we based but now, I really do like it. While still beta, it comes with a solid free plan for usage that's still powerful. The added benefit is I can use it Emily on my iPad so there's little need for a full blown iOS app unless you're on a smartphone which I find cumbersome anyway.

Black Love And Marriage.com : Things Are Good Because I Say They Are

Fri, 20 Apr 2012 05:24:00 +0000

Wonderful post. And indeed, it IS true. When you personally 'fake it til you make', your mind and thoughts do the rest for you. Like you, Skye, I adopted the same attitudes which lead me to meeting and marrying my South Africa wife, Pam. Keeping the right attitude (including being grateful and honest) allows the mind to radiate that same energy and attract the right stuff to you. The same for when you are IN a relationship. Sure things get tough and sometimes nasty but it's the mindset that steers the relationship to where you both want it to go - onward and upward and nothing will get in your way. Fantastic for sharing and even more magical that you discovered this truth/ My recent post Find and Discover True Love – Faster and Earlier

GeekandJock : 7 Foolproof Ways to Spot a Good Man

Sat, 14 Apr 2012 06:53:36 +0000

Thanks for the visit and comment - welcome. Why don't women act what way? You mean giving of themselves, respect for others and polite? Who are you going out with? The vast majority of my previous dates and my wife have all exhibited these traits which makes it way easier to reciprocate. That said, sure, there's going to be people that take advantage of other people's kindness but that's life. My recent post Poll: Should Everyone Tell It Like It Is OR Never Say You’re Sexy

Hey surfyn and welcome back, mate. Now I must say, that's a fantastic mindset to have when it comes to your actions and what you control you have over your partner - you don't have any. That's really how it should be i.e. she doesn't have to be with you AS OPPOSED TO she wants to be with you. That redefines a relationship. It redefines what you do. It redefines why you do things. It redefines your mindset and your view of your partner and the world. My recent post 7 Foolproof Ways to Spot a Good Man

GeekandJock : Interview with Sylvia D. Lucas

Tue, 3 Apr 2012 21:40:39 +0000

Hey, thanks for stopping by, JB For me anyway, I believe 'love' has many states as well as many levels. The love someone might have for a fancy car isn't the same type (or level) as the love you have for your wife or kids and that's different to the love and level you have for a friend. And it's also different to that you have for yourself - which you most certainly need so agree with you there. Haven't really given much thought to dying which I probably should since I'm 53 and only have about 90 years left but I'd feel a little sad that the love I have for Pam would be gone. Only thing is to ensure she's OK and meets someone else that brings her happiness. My recent post Review: For Women Only – Inner Lives Of Men

In the words of Yoda "There is no trying, only Doing". While I think I'll write up a separate post on your story which I found quite interesting on a number of fronts, that last paragraph certainly gives me the impression there's some, in my opinion, issues that you have with men in general. That's a negative block and one that has the potential to destroy a relationship. My recent post Review: For Women Only – Inner Lives Of Men

Hey Keri - thanks for your visit and comment. Well, there is actually another book for men to read about the inner minds of women - it's on my reading list which is starting to bank up at the moment :) Why do you think society has conditioned people to shy away from open-mindedness about relationships though - I'd have thought it was the reverse so interested in your thoughts on this.

Successful relationship take time, patience and effort. That's a given. On your comment though, beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder. One person's opinion on beauty is certainly not another's. I value my wife and who she is. I love her and think she is the most beautiful. I tell her and express my thoughts on what she is wearing (leaving out fault) so she knows she's one sexy gal - to me anyway and that's what counts. You're undervaluing men though. Sure, at times, they can lack emotion that women would like to see. They don't necessarily express themselves all that well, at times. But that's what makes up a man. Women do diferent things that don't make sense to men as well. Deal with it and accept your guy does love, cherish you and think you're the most beautiful women in his world. Accept he is looking at others and tell him he needs to also show you more respect - and follow through with him when he doesn't so he learns. My recent post Top 5 Health Benefits From Sex
