I started a website sometime in the past year, and I have worked ages on the design and the content and it has a forum and a chatroom. But it simply gets no views. I have googled around for a few months now on how to increase the flow of trffic your website gets and its all the same: "post on forums", "submit your site to major search engines", "build backlinks", "meta tags" etc.. I have done all of these again and again and it really doesn’t seem to be working.

I have recently created an account with LinkRefferal and this seems to help a bit, but it still isn’t getting me the views I need/deserve.

If you want to have a look at my site here it is:

Please Help,

Thanks in advance,

Joe

In a recent letter to the Washington Post, browbeating it for daring to pen an article on errors in the IPCC report, David Hilfiker complained stridently that ""Climate-change deniers get too much help from Post story"" and that even though the article was accurate the Post was wrong to run it because: [quote]

""The Feb. 15 front-page article "Missteps weigh on agenda for climate" was infuriating, a perfect example of why so many Americans still don’t believe in the coming crisis of global climate change. Read closely, your article was technically accurate, but the language and placement of information gave the impression that the overwhelming scientific consensus on global climate change might be in danger.""

~ So, he acknowledges that the article was perfectly accurate, but inveighs against it on the grounds that it questions the supposed orthodoxy! Is this a healthy attitude?

I was curious about who would write such a ehtically dubious letter, so I checked out David Hilfiker, esq., and found his ‘spiritual’ website: www.davidhilfiker.com, where he writes "sermons" on the evils of capitalism, in one of which he says: [quote]

————————————————————
""As long as profit maximization, the sanctity of private property, and distribution solely by supply and demand remain the unexamined bases of our economic system, we will not be able to feed the hungry or prevent ecological destruction.

Among those who ardently hope and work for change, there is a different opinion. Many believe that without a fundamental re-orientation in power relationships no change will be possible. It is power, they say, that determines the course of society; until those who rule society are replaced, we cannot expect justice or sustainability

We do not have much time left before environmental catastrophe overtakes us. We won’t find environmental balance unless we deal with injustice. The current economic system cannot bring either justice or sustainability""
————————————————————

– in short, this is a call for revolution to bring about "sustainability". Yet again, you can see the real agenda start to emerge.

IS this letter to WP a good example of the sort of activists we are dealing with on global warming?

During his speech Friday in which the President argued for the gutting of the Geneva convention and the legal classification of torture, Bush made a strange comment about explosives and their placement in U.S. buildings. Was this a tacit admission of 9/11 controlled demolition?

Here’s the quote in full from the White House website.

http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2006/09/20060915-2.html

Ben Fountain and Scott Forbes, who both worked in the twin towers, are on the record as saying that there were numerous evacuations and power-downs of the twin towers in the weeks leading up to the attack – more so than would be usually expected for a high profile building.

"How could they let this happen? They knew this building was a target. Over the past few weeks we’d been evacuated a number of times, which is unusual. I think they had an inkling something was going on," Fountain told People Magazine.
In an online interview, Forbes said that the power down which took place the weekend before the attack was "unprecedented" and required a shutdown of the top 50 floors of the south tower – the reason for the shutdown was given as "re-cabling."

"The power outage meant that many of the ‘ordinary’ building features were not operating, such as security locks on doors, cameras, lighting, etc."

Forbes said the sight of strange men in overalls going in and out of the building with tools was highly unusual and that the "coincidence" of it occurring days before the attack was highly suspicious.

I am learning to do SEO and many of the available literatures are confusing and sometimes conflicting – I have several practical questions and I would be obliged if someone can provide expert answers. Lots of thanks in advance.

1. Can I put a keyphrase like "e-business advantage" in the keyword tag when "e-business" and "advantage" are the words to be found in the content and not the "e-business advantage" phrase?

2. When "custom website design" is already defined as a keyphrase do I need to put keyphrases like "website design" or "custom website" or they are superfluous and not required?

3. Does "Bangalore Java Jobs" and "Java Jobs Bangalore" are same in terms of search?

4. The content has several occurences of "e-business consulting", "e-business solutions", "e-business strategies" and "e-business applications" – what would be an optimum keyword list?

5. The content has "pay-for-placement" so what should be my keyword? "pay for placement" or "pay-for-placement" ?

For example, in a sentence if I used two website sources to get the information in that one sentence, how would I do the in-text citation? And both of the sources have no authors so they would be "title."
I’m pretty sure you use a semicolon but would you do
("Title One;" "Title Two") or ("Title One"; "Title Two")?
I’m not sure about the placement of the semicolon.

Thanks for your help! This is MLA format by the way.

I’m thinking of starting my own business and would like to use the internet as a marketing tool. The two primary things I would need from a host would be a) a good search engine keyword system (in other words people could type in "mowing", "dallas", "texas" in Google and find my business) and b) options to pay the business online using a credit/debit card. Who’s a good web host for this?

I’m basically thinking of something that will think of every imaginable skill people can have in the workplace, and you’ll check something like "I have skill and experience," "I have skill but not experience," "I have experience but no skill (sad)" and then will produce a drop-down window that matches your answers to jobs — sort of a virtual placement counselor. Has anyone seen anything like that?
Ignore the "drop down window" part. I really just confused matters.
Hey Kevin. I checked it out. It’s interesting. Definitely on the right track though it’s only available in Texas and California right now and I’m in New York. The only real problems I saw with it are a) it forces you to choose a line of work in which you’re interested and I don’t want to do that, and b) Every skill question asks if you’re certified in the skill and in some cases it isn’t applicable. There’s no "not applicable" button.
