PinoyCallcenter Login Trouble

I just found a very unfriendly user system today,the pinoycallcenter site. what's the purpose of having to ask both the username and the email ad when you forget your login info? You are requesting for it because you either lost password or the username, just so stupid, in my opinion.

How do you submit your URL to stumbleupon? It's simple. Go to your site/page, and click "I like it" on your browser toolbar (assuming you have downloaded and installed the Sumbleupon toolbar) Next question commonly asked is "what can i do to increase my traffic with stumbleupon? Here's the answer.

1. Rate Websites. Get involved in a community and start rating other people's websites.
2. Add Friends on your network. This will increase the volume of users that are likely to give you a two thumbs up
3. Submit new pages.
4. Carefully select topic titles.This is important to make sure your webpage is displayed to relevant users
5. Add multiple tags.

That's all for stumbleupon. gotta get back to work.

Finally, i now see stumbleupon's contribution on my traffic. Now on the top 5 of my Most referring sites!  

2006 Pubcon in Las Vegas

I'm posting more things i have read about what was discussed during the 2006 Pubcon in Las Vegas:

1. "Google doesn't give a lot of weight on directory links". - by Matt Cutts
My comment. it says "a lot of weight" , that means they still do give importance to it, just not that much.

2. Don't use link services, link exchanges or buy links. Rely on your good content to get ONE-WAY inbound links.

3. Keep your page titles short and simple (i usually limit my title to 100 characters). Google might look at long titles as if you're trying to stuff some extra keywords, etc.

4. Unique titles on your pages.

5. Avoid templating pages. Don't create tons of pages that have very similar content with the exception of a paragraph or two. Most of it will get flagged as duplicate content and will likely de-index most of your pages.

6. Try to keep most of your javascript in includes. Helps keep the source cleaner from a crawlers perspective since they don't have to look at it.

7. Register your site with Google local and Yahoo yellow pages. Doing so helps boost your rank in local search. A good site description when registering plays an important role in your ranking, so pay attention to it as well.

Google PubCon2006 in Las Vegas

A google big event held in Las Vegas just happened: "Las Vegas PubCon
2006". An event where bloggers, SEOs, webmasters, programmers and anyone
who has the passion to know more about Google, gathered together. It's
just too bad, i wasn't able to attend but i wish that soon, i could. I
know some filipinos went to this event and i'm hoping that when they come
back to the philippines, they will be organizing a conference here in
manila and share what they have learned during this PubCon. But i'm
keeping my fingers crossed as well that they won't charge too high (of
course to cover up the expenses they have spent during their travel!)
