With Google now providing convenient anchor links as sitelinks within search results for long structured documents I thought it would be prudent to examine current solutions for WordPress and see which of them is most likely to help you obtain anchor links.

Danny Sullivan has a comprehensive look at Google’s new SideWiki feature to Google toolbar and site reviews.

He has also been using it to add some commentary on various sites as you can see from his Google profile.

Feedburner Feedsmith WP2.8.4 & Caching

Just a quick note for anyone who has been missing updates for the last couple of weeks.

I am not sure exactly what changed within WordPress 2.8.4 to cause this but for a large segment of my readers there might not have been any visible updates on RSS feeds since around 6th September.

#Twitter Sucks At Malware Protection (98hrs later)

Just over 4 hours ago I published a post congratulating Google and Stopbadware on their efficiency in responding to malware, and eventually the speed with which they reinstate a “bad” domain after malware has been removed.

In contrast, whist everyone seems to enthuse about how real-time Twitter is, their system handling malware is such a delayed knee-jerk reaction that it should just be removed as a total failure.

You see an hour ago I received the following email

twitter-malware

It is good that Twitter is doing something to protect their users, but this is like putting on a condom the morning after.

Update: It has now been 98 hours since Twitter blocked my site

How Google & StopBadware.org Handle Hacked WordPress

This post hopefully can act as a bit of a counter-balance to all the stories of dread you will find if searching of how hard it is to fix a site after it has been hacked, and what it takes to get Google to reconsider your site after it has been happened.

Viral Tell-A-Friend Thats Safe For Your Granny or CEO

I have been ranting and raving about insecure viral Tell-A-Friend scripts for over a year, and it seemed like I was just talking to a brick wall.

Now in the space of just a week I have been able to highlight a solution based upon one of my own blog posts that uses a slightly ghetto, but K.I.S.S method to achieve extremely effective viral tell-a-friend functionality, and now I want to mention another more sophisticated solution.

Technorati State Of The Blogosphere – Rest In Spam

It looks like the annual Technorati State Of The Blogosphere is going to be lacking a lot of data this year – maybe just Gmail users, but possibly many more. Google thinks Technorati are phishing.

Stomper 999 – Stompernet Bonus

Stomper 999 is a strange launch, at least by modern standards in the Internet Marketing Niche.

  • Squeeze page for a couple of weeks
  • A few rumours
  • A few leaks of info after a seminar
  • A few leaks on information after an affiliate conference
  • The shopping cart opened on launch day and THEN they are going to drive home the message with tons more free content

But you can buy now

For me Brad’s new “Mafia Offer” is a nobrainer but lets look at some of what I heard

The new tools package

  • Full version Market Samurai
  • WYSIWYG Taguchi testing (Software as a Service / Hosted – up to 100,000 views free)
  • Shopping cart (some additonal fees apply)
  • Twitter Storm – custom version of People Browser
  • SEO Qast – I think this is a desktop video/article syndication tool
  • Full $97/month version of Traffic Geyser
  • Article Syndication network of 17000 sites
  • SMS/Text IM Twitter Email system
  • PDX system with 800 number webconferencing etc (some additional fees can apply)
  • Review System – not exactly sure, but a way to get reviews on Google local, with cards being sent to clients to fill out, pop in the mail and the details are added to local
    • Plus as far as I know all the current Stompernet training is also available which is really worth thousands of dollars.

The Power Of Blogging Reciprocity

The relationships you can build in blogging are often more valuable than you can allocate a monetary value.

I have just been joking a little with Jack Humphrey on twitter about outranking him for his own product.. yet again, and toying with the idea of making it a double listing.
The first thing Jack did when he read my post was promote it to his Twitter followers.
