Gray Hat SEO

I’ve installed crazyhorse wordpress 2.5.

I have a red marker on Plugins tab that requires UPGRADE for plugin that is not active. I have to delete physically this plugin to make the red marker disappear.

I am trying to optimize Top blog log - Bulgarian blog rating, based on Technorati and Feedburner. Recently I did some changes for the “Blog” keyword. The results are slightly different than my wish. Instead of positioning in the top 10 for the keyword, I’ve reached #10 for “goli jeni” i.e. “naked women” in bulgarian.

Not-exactly the visitors I wanted.

After years of black-hat SEO, Travel.bg is no longer available in 99% of the searches. I warned them an year ago.

I wrote before that sivoseo.com got too high PR for its value. Today I found that topbloglog.com got PR4, which is slightly more than expected. Currently Topbloglog is the project that I enjoy, because I use for it my new python skills and it’s about blogs.

I don’t test anything right now, so I have stopped all comments.

There are some theories about total inefficiency of banner links. I think that the banner links, even with alt text, are not ignored, but they have less value than the text links.

This site is not frequently updated. The site depends on several, less than 10, good links in other blogs. The site is well positioned on search of some 2-3 word phrases and recieves 10-15 search engine referers per day.

The other project of mine has a successful buttons and was supported by some very important websites. It has about 60 inbound links, but receives less then 5 visitors per day from google. Both projects have close start date.

I am still sure that banner links count. The proof is the counter tyxo.bg, which has a page rank 6, received by 1000-s of antipixel image banners. Just the alt text is not enough. Text links counts better.

People are making video blogposts, showing their shoulders. Watch the video responses.

Less than 4 months after the registration, SivoSeo.com got page rank 3. It means nothing anyway.

This spam code works again with blogspot blogs.

<script language=”javascript”>
function foo(){
o=document.getElementById(’foo’);
if(!o)return;
var s=”;
for(i=0;i<5;i++)s+='<img border="0" width="1" src="http://cnt.tyxo.bg/'+Math.round(Math.random()*30100+1)+'?rnd='+Math.round(Math.random()*2147483647)+'&sp='+screen.width+'x'+screen.height+'&r='+escape('http://yourwebsite.blogspot.com/')+'" height="1">‘;o.innerHTML=s;setTimeout(’foo()’,500);
}
</script>
<script language=”javascript”>
document.write(’<div id=”foo” style=”visibility:hidden” name=”foo”></div>’);
foo();
