To Niagara I Go, Leaving Behind Random Ramblings

I’m headed off to Canada for the weekend to visit with friends, one of whom is celebrating a birthday. I’m looking forward to some crazy nights on the town and a kick ass trip to Niagara.

I’ve been up a few times since I moved, but the first time I went back, Trose was supposed to go with me but ended up being grounded in Chicago because “mother nature was a filthy whore” (not to be confused with the camouflage link whore). This time, the weather looks good, so the Doritos bitch will be meeting me there.

But, before I go, a few random tidbits…

– Leave it up to the mozzers to come up with something totally pointless - but brilliant - because they know no one in this industry likes to be beaten in ranks by anyone else.

– Check out os x basics because I want my damn lollipop.

– If you’re not reading the god of copywriting, you should be. You should also be reading au interactive too… he has one of those blogs that isn’t linked to death by “celebrities” but probably should be.

– I guess I’ll be the person to tell Todd that his title for this post is wrong since it has been like that for almost a week now. ;-)

– There is absolutely nothing too absolutely insane for this man to hooley-fy as a marketing vehicle.

He did an experiment inspired by my Facebook post that had some expected results. I did an experiment as well, but have been too lazy to blog about my results, which mimicked his.

– If you’re going to complain about not being linked to then I’m going to tell you that I’ve wanted to reference a post you did a few times, but you took the post about the thong down after a week (and I still have no idea why - you know the post to which I refer).

– I’ll be making three posts next week. I mention them here because otherwise I might not get to them, as two of them should have made it up this week. The posts… another completion, a blogging concept defined and what should be a very freaking interesting post of interest to anyone doing search engine marketing at any skill level.

– Thanks to my stats, I now know I rank for an extremely interesting phrase.

– I don’t know the name of his wife, but a big welcome to her… to both the world of search engine marketing and to the craziness that is my personality. ;-)

I’ll be back late Tuesday night… try to behave in the meantime, LOL.

Sugarrae runs on the Thesis WordPress Theme

Thesis WordPress theme

If you’re someone who doesn’t understand a lot of PHP, Thesis will give a ton of functionality that you wouldn’t be able to obtain otherwise with a simple control panel instead of having to alter code. For the advanced, Thesis has incredible customization possibilities via Thesis hooks.

For those "in between", like myself, I’ve created "dummy" guides for Thesis hooks that allow us to make more professional customizations than we ever deemed possible. The theme is not only highly customizable, but it has allowed me to run Sugarrae more professionally, with a much more targeted focus on monetization than it ever has been able to achieve before. You can find out more about Thesis below:

Did someone say thong?

Here you go: http://www.seobuzzbox.com/25-peeps/

Even though I would love to delete that post to increase to a new level of SEO phraseology I just can’t get myself to do so. It’s hot!

As you know, I was testing out what is known as “linkbaiting” before it became a trend, you caught me and are a smart one Rae! =P

Actually Aaron, I was referring to the post that quoted something I said about a thong - you deleted it a week after it went up, comments and all. Though this post was a hell of a post too. ;-)

Ah yes, but please do not take it personal, my blog is an experiment where I test out ideas and concepts. I can tell you this, want to confuse the search engines and never rank for anything for more than a week or two? Delete posts and the Google algorithm will look at you and scratch it’s head.

BTW: I have decided to not prune posts anymore.

My son just puked and I got to go empty his bowl, poor little guy. ;-(

Have a safe trip.

Are you going to get drunk enough to go down the falls in a barrel? :P

Hahahahaha. We actually - well, trose was hell bent on convincing a friend of ours to do it while drunk… the friend refused, and george didnt push too hard because he was busy winning, then losing, money at craps. :P
