I love when I find hilarious things when searching the Interwebs on the Google. I decided to search for “best search engine” to see does the Google think that it is the best search engine ever. Apparently Google is suffering from a case of low self esteem. Who do you think is better than you Google, is it Yahoo? No, it can’t be aren’t they in some kind of financial crisis, maybe MSN? Nope, they just recently rolled back indexing and algorithm changes because they pissed off so many webmasters. So tell me who is better than you Google? DOGPILE LOL

Like most people my first foray into monetizing my websites was Google AdSense. It paid pretty well per click and made me enough for a few nights out every month.

I love to check the postings on CraigsList since it is one of the best ways to keep a pulse on actual demand in certain industries. I typed in search to see what kind of things come up.

Finally this blog ranks for the term I was going after “google sucks” and has been bringing in a steady stream of traffic. The problem is when I started this blog I did not have a clear view of where I was planning to go with it. In fact it started as a place for me to vent about some of the hypocritical Google activity I saw around me.

I have been reading about how to create a blog that ads value to the readers. Don’t get me wrong I think there is value in raising awareness and most importantly questions regarding the Google. However, I want to take this blog one step further and offer something back to the readers.

Help me sculpt this blog into a community resource. Read some of my thoughts below and please leave a comment with your feedback or suggestions.

If you have researched across the web for SEO material it is without a doubt that you stumbled across SEOBook. Search Engine Optimization is the practice of actively trying to get your web property to rank on search engines and gain organic ranking. Keyword research, title tags, meta data, anchor text, link bait, etc sounds overwhelming doesn’t it?

If you are like me you realize that the noise to quality ratio is quite awful when it comes to SEO online. However SEOBook claims to offer enough information to separate fact from fiction for experts and teach the basics to small business owners just starting out in SEO.

Below is review of SEOBook and the top 5 Reasons NOT to buy SEOBook
