View from a search spider

There is a big difference in what you see on your screen and what a search engine spider sees. There are a lot of things that a spider can not interpret like we do. Javascript, Images etc…
I have found it extremely beneficial to use a text browser to dissect a web page. Google recommends this [...]

Google Promote and Remove

Google is experimenting with new Promote and Remove buttons in the SERPS moving the search experience to a more personal level. They clearly state that this is an experiment and it may only last a short time.
This experiment lets you influence your search experience by adding, moving, and removing search results. When you search for [...]

Keep It Simple

Most people have heard of the old KISS Principle, Keep It Simple Stupid.
The KISS Principle should also be modified for the Internet, here are some examples:

Keep It Simple Social (Networking)
Keep It Simple SEO
Keep It Simple SEM

One of the things I have noticed over the last few years is how so many people have complicated things, [...]

Keywords Help

Understanding keywords is essential to having success in driving traffic to your site.
The problem is usually that people see a hot topic and decide that is a great keyword. The most popular keywords are not always the best to use though. Sometimes it is better to dig a little deeper and find keywords that may [...]

Minimal Wordpress Theme Download

The Minimal Wordpress Theme can now be downloaded from here.
This is the theme I am running on this site.
I added a YouTube video hook on the Single post page. Instead of using a Wordpress Plugin that would be an additional step I took my AJAX API Video plugin and incorporated it into the Functions file. [...]

Wasted Year on Internet Marketing

This is basically the answer to the question I have been asked most recently, which is, “why have you sold some of your sites and quit working on other projects”. Well, I realized I have wasted about a year working with Internet Marketing, probably two if you consider the time I put in.
A little over [...]

Minimal Wordpress Theme

I think this Wordpress Theme, if you could call it that, is growing on me.
I keep looking at all the themes that are out there and a lot of them are just cluttered. There is always a lot of talk about how each new Wordpress Theme is designed for SEO better than the last. Well, [...]

…offers you a way to get your web site onto the first page of Google and other search engines guaranteed!…

Baseball Analogy of Blogging

I spend more time reading blogs than I do blogging. After some of the conversations lately I realized that there is an excellent Baseball analogy that fits blogging.
“Get em on, get em over, get em in”
The basic baseball principle is that you do not need Home Runs to win the game, you just need consistency [...]

New Wordpress Theme from CyberCoder

As usual I have to do things a little different. I have been wanting to create some Wordpress themes but I just keep putting it off. The more I read about SEO and Wordpress the more frustrated I get. What I believe about SEO is very similar to what Shoemoney posted here.
To me SEO has [...]

Adjustment to my Wordpress unTheme

While getting this Wordpress Theme down to the bare essentials I realized I would need at the minimum two CSS divisions to utilize a sidebar. This means that the stylesheet is not empty, there are two divisions, one for the content and one for the sidebar.
The goal for this theme is to use the bare [...]

Wordpress Theme Experiment

While contemplating what to do with this domain name I came up with an idea. I love Wordpress and I started thinking about doing another blog, I mean, what the heck I already have 10 to 20 I am trying to keep up with, what would just one more be. However, I really struggled when [...]

Organic SEO Lesson

Search engines want true organic listings, and for some reason a lot of people struggle with this concept. If you write an original article you are creating an organic (natural) post. And the results you achieve might just surprise you. And yes, this is probably harder for me as a programmer than you can imagine. [...]

Google Supplemental Index now mainstream, tag dead

The Google Supplemental Index is not going away, however, the tag that displays on supplemental results is.
Onl July 31st, Google announced that they will drop the Supplemental tag from showing in the SERPs.
…we’ve decided to stop labeling these URLs as “Supplemental Results.” Of course, you will continue to benefit from Google’s supplemental index being deeper [...]

CyberCoder gets a new look!

It only took a couple hours, but it sure looks better than the previous design.
I launched this site several months ago and spent all my time on the technical aspects instead of the look and feel. I tend to always go “function over fashion” first. But since Garry Conn would not stop teasing me about [...]

Wordpress Duplicate Content

One of the problems with Wordpress is that it creates a lot of duplicate content, and there have been a lot of conversations on whether search engines, especially Google penalize you for duplicate content. It seems that it is not a penalty but a filter.
If you create a standard Wordpress site you will have same [...]
