YOU are telling me to stop preaching as you are preaching that folks should not bother with clean code or a dedicated IP when you can’t possibly know whether it will help or not, what I was pointing...

"Those ate HTML errors and have no effect on SEO"

Again, an Uproven Myth. How do you know? I would love to see this tell all source you are getting your information from.

I'll move on now,...

I love it when people tell you myths as if they are facts, the fact is that no one knows whether or not the same IP matters but I have played with it over the years and my best sites have been on...

"separating the two for page rank purposes is silly. Actually, the same applies to rankings."

I believe you are correct in stating that separating the for page rank is not a good idea, but to keep...

The quote showed how to separate the folders so that the spider can not go to the directory from the main site, that is what we want to avoid the appearance of the two being the same site.

Here...

Stymee man, no pages use that folder accept the link from the main site to the directory. I am not advising anyone to block any pages in the Directory, just ONE link from the main site to the...

I was even more suprised to learn that the Infousa status affects placement, its strange to see that my biggest competitor has actually become a big part of the way the internet works.

No its not, its only a way to stop them from going through THAT particular folder, the web will have plenty of other links going to the directory if you follow the directions. The spiders are...

If you must buy backlinks make sure the actual page you are getting listed on has backlinks.

I think it might be better if you write articles on your sites topic and submit it to high pagerank...

I am not blocking it from the search engines. Jesus, did you read anything I wrote?

The redirect ONLY stops it from going from the main site to the directory to accomplish 2 things, one it will...

This is good advice people, read my posts and try to understand what I am saying and take it or don't read them and leave it so my sites beat yours.

Here is a challenge for you, explain to me how...

I have a huge database in SQL on my hard drive, I am trying to figure out how I can get it online with a decent looking interface to allow my sales people to run querries on it simmilar to what...

It will not be fraud if the directory is looked at by the search engines as a separate site, the only thing my redirect does is stop the spider from going from the main site to the directory, it does...

if you will read my post before insulting my advice - I said, if you submit the directory gets its own PR, in a lot of cases the direcory actually gets better ranking than the site itself.

I rank very well, and as I said, it was a quick checklist for those with an hour a day to spare, and if there was no SEO done yet.

I took the time to write content for your site, I dont appreciate...

A directory ISa good idea for SEO on your site.

I will show you a way to get ONE way links to your site by aiming your reciprical links to your home page or internal page (more important than ever...

I agree that in most cases SEO companies can be a waste of time, there is plenty of good information out there and if you have 1-2 hours a day to spare dont waste the dough...

BUT... If you have...

Yeah I figured, I need a directory site that looks nice, let me know if you can get one.

Take care...

Guestbook? That was the only one that I have not seen here.

Guys/Gals, Be sure not to name your directory with the name link, directory, or resources if you are watching for SEO.

P.S I am...

Are you kidding? I get a near blank page at your link!
