Wingnut SEO

Hey everyone, I know I haven’t been posting as much as I’d like to but I wanted to let everyone know what I was up to.  As I have said in some previous posts I started my own Search Marketing Company! This has really put the kibosh on having a social life… much less updating WingnutSEO frequently.

We are updating all the time on the 10kthings Blog though.  Be sure to check out our latest post.  We’re doing an experiment that involves the power of social media so please tell your friends and help us out. Over at 10kThings we also have started Video Blogging - As part of the power of social media I put up the first Video last night.  Be sure to check out 10kthings on YouTube frequently, that is going to be a lot of fun.

All and all life couldn’t be better (even though it is rather stressful and busy right now) but I’m sure it will all pay off.  I really couldn’t have come as far as I have without the support of you all.  So… Thanks

So I came across a post over the weekend where the goal is to to be the biggest douche bag on the internet.  This has to be my favorite link baiting post ever - Mostly because I know the guy… and he for sure deserves this honor.

This is a very noble quest.  I wish him the best

My last post “Top 4 ways to piss me off with your blog” to my surprise and delight went hot and made the first page of Sphinn today. This is one of the cooler things that happened to me this week/month/year/(decade?) especially because several bloggers that I read on a daily basis, and respect, were some of the ones who are reading and sphinning my posts. Thanks guys (*cries* You like me! You really like me!)

So now what? For me and this blog I’m going to continue to try and write good content and throw some link-baiting titles in, when I can, for good measure… but that’s it.

I think a lot of first time bloggers/webmasters who find some quick/overnight success try and make as much money off it as possible (and this could be why so many of the blogs out there piss me off.) They throw up tons of ads, affiliate links, etc… and forget about the people. I have seen it happen so many times.

A great site starts getting a little more traffic than what they are used to and BLAM it gets overrun by all kinds of crap that I don’t want/care to see and the content suffers - and in turn loses the traffic that it had from being a great site and fades from memory.

So to anyone who finds a little overnight success: It’s just one day/week don’t forget how you got there - so you can stay there.
