How can I really make money online?

May 22, 2008 / Dave Taylor / Business Advice, SEO & Marketing / 4 Comments

Hi Dave. I’ve been trying to build an online business for almost a year now and still don’t seem to earn more than pocket change each month. I’ve tried various approaches, from a drop-shipping e-commerce store to an information-based site with advertising to a course on search engine optimization. None of ’em have worked. So, tell me honestly, how do I really make money online?

Do contextual or keyword ads adversely impact credibility?

May 14, 2008 / Dave Taylor / AdSense, AdWords, and PPC Help, SEO & Marketing, Wordpress Help / No Comments

Dave, I have a client who is considering using Kontera to insert keyword ad links. Our recommendation to them was to create internal linking, not keyword ads in the text. I remember you discussing removing the keyword ads. Was there a reason for this in regards to SERPs, or was that purely due to expert credibility?

When did Google last visit a specific Web page?

April 7, 2008 / Dave Taylor / SEO & Marketing / 1 Comment

Can you constrain Google search results by date?

September 14, 2007 / Dave Taylor / Computer & Internet Basics, SEO & Marketing / 2 Comments

I have read lots of articles about how to constrain search results on Google by domain, by site, and even how to group words and include “negative” keywords to ensure that I don’t get spurious matches. What I haven’t figured out is whether there’s any way to constrain my searches by date. For example, to just find material that’s been updated or indexed in the last week. Doable?

Can I use nofollow links internally to channel PageRank?

August 30, 2007 / Dave Taylor / SEO & Marketing / 11 Comments

This is a rather geeky SEO question, but I have heard that Google considers internal site links as relevant as external links and that it’s smart to “nofollow” links that go to pages you don’t want or need ranked in the search engine. Is that true? More importantly, is it safe?

Should I buy links from sites with higher PageRank?

July 7, 2007 / Dave Taylor / SEO & Marketing / 1 Comment

I have rebuilt my website using the advice in your great book Growing Your Business with Google. I hope that I understood everything correctly! And, of course, I have a question for you: I understand that there are companies that will add you to a site with a higher PageRank for a fee. Do you recommend doing this, if the site is related to your line of work? If so, are there any sites that you recommend, including your own?

Are MySpace links to msplinks.com spyware?

April 30, 2007 / Dave Taylor / SEO & Marketing, Twitter Help / 9 Comments

Dave, there are a bunch of new comments on my MySpace profile that link to “msplinks.com”, even though they look like they’re from different people. Is this some sort of unified attack on my profile or what?

What is the “+” plus box on some Google search results?

April 11, 2007 / Dave Taylor / SEO & Marketing / 2 Comments

I just noticed this week that sometimes when I search for information on Google that the top few results have a little plus sign next to them. I’ve seen the little shopping cart for Google Shopping, but what the heck does the plus sign denote?
