So I think I like Gooruze… Just not that much. I can tell it has some serious potential (and to validate my blog feed Wingnut.gooruze.com ) They are new and will be interesting to see where they go but if they don’t change some stuff up soon – I’m done with it.

Something that is often overlooked from newbies to SEO is the power of the press release. I found this article about the important things to remember when doing so. If you’re new to SEO then I hope this will help you out, I wanted to write my own article about this, and maybe I still [...]
