Just read a great blog post by Jim Boykin about how selling links won’t get you a Google penalty. Jim is an expert on link building and so I like to follow his blog, a much better use of my time than reading the crap that appears in the SEO forums.

Get a listing ranked in Google – in less than 15 minutes
September 25th, 2007 · 2 Comments
I know that many people who read this will think that this is impossible, but I was telling Dan (fellow Stomper/30 Day Challenge/Immediate Edge/fellow ex-pat Brit in Barcelona) recently that I got a page to rank in Google in 15 minutes using the techniques used in the 30 Day Challenge and Immediate Edge.
He was stunned, [...]

First impressions of Immediate Edge
September 24th, 2007 · Comments Off
I signed up for The Immediate Edge at the beginning of September and have been going through the huge amount of info on the site from Dan Raine and Ed Dale, which is really good and solid, but they have really outdone themselves with the release of The Edge Networker this weekend.
I still have [...]

Back again
September 24th, 2007 · Comments Off
OK, I’m back again after a trip down to Vejer de la Frontera in the south of Spain. The occasion? My brother’s wedding and the bastard asked me to be best man!
Now I’m not really one for weddings, but the whole family had a great time, with my sister and her other half coming over [...]

Enjoy your trip
September 17th, 2007 · Comments Off
I meant to say something about this when I got back from London last Sunday, but didn’t get around to it for some reason. What I wanted to say is that you should really avoid flying out of the UK if you can possibly avoid it because the additional security in place makes it a [...]

A bit undercooked
September 16th, 2007 · Comments Off
Now you may have started to realise and may have not, but I do like eating. To celebrate my birthday yesterday I took Miriam out for dinner at Sikkim, a place we tried three years ago and found the mix of cuisine which supposedly follows the route of Marco Polo to suit us perfectly.
Last night [...]
SEO and beer at Belly
September 14th, 2007 · 2 Comments
Last night I finally met Dan, one of the original members of my StomperNet SIMPLE team who also lives in Barcelona.
We should have met before, but I was hyper busy before the summer and cancelled a couple of times, so was glad to finally meet at Belly for the monthly Barcelona entrepeneur’s group networking meetup. [...]

My favourite food
September 13th, 2007 · 2 Comments
One thing I always make sure I do when I visit the UK is go out for a curry. It’s simply the best food ever invented and I could eat it at least 5 days of the week. Leftovers are always great for breakfast and the aroma of the spices cooking is unbeatable.
So yes, I [...]
StomperNet SIMPLE vs The 30 Day Challenge
September 13th, 2007 · Comments Off
Back from London and I’ve had a bit of a chance to recover by diving into the 30 Day Challenge like mad. I’m now going through day 27, so made some progress over the last few days. In fact there aren’t too many action points, most of it is listening/watching the podcasts/videos and so it [...]

I got to day 3 of the 30 day challenge in August as I couldn’t get all the info, but have been at it for the last 3 days and have completed [...]
