Do You Have a Sitemap?

If you have a website or a blog and you have not added your site map to Google Webmaster tools, you should take the time to do so. Back in the Stone Age when I first got online I barely knew what a sitemap was. I spent some time reading in various forums trying to [...]

Google Indexing Speed

Some time ago, I wrote a post about switching one of my Google-step-child-sites from a hand coded site to a Joomla site. I made the switch because I originally hand coded the site several years ago and things have changed since then (and I’ve learned a lot since then). Not to belabor the point (for [...]

Site Maps – Detecting and Fixing Broken Links (for free)

It’s rather frustrating to check into Google Webmaster Tools only to find that one of my site maps has several broken links. Not quite understanding what I did wrong I decided to fix the site map and website broken links once and for all.

How I Converted My Web Site into a WordPress Blog

As some of you may know I’m somewhat new to this blogging arena. Yes I had started up a blogspot blog quite some time ago but was never serious about it. I was old-fashioned and believed that the way to make money on the Internet was to have a static website. Don’t get me wrong; [...]
