Podcast Notes

  • Improving traffic: social media, improving your PageRank
  • Avoid endorsing or giving PageRank away via links with the rel=”nofollow” tag.
    • Example: <a href=”http://joshauriemma.com” rel=”nofollow”> means that you’re giving a link to me so that users can click it, but it tells Google not to give me an PageRank.
  • free link exchange - find websites whose readers would enjoy your content and offer to give them a link if they’ll link you on their website.
    • Avoid sounding spammy - be sincere.
  • Taking my own advice by using Wordpress plugins to implement nofollow tags.
    • Wordpress plugins
      • Nofollow Blogroll SEO
        • Does nothing to blogroll on the main page, but adds nofollow tags to the blogroll on all other sub-pages.  That way you’re only sharing your PageRank from your main URL.
      • Nofollow Reciprocity
        • Lets you add links to your posts as usual, and will add nofollow tags to major websites who don’t need your PageRank.
