Geeks on Steroids has been building custom designed websites for over eight years. Geeks on Steroids has a staff of six people at this time and while it is a small staff it is the perfect size for us. If you are looking for a company that gives a home town feel then you are in the right place because we want every client to be our best friend.
Geeks on Steroids did search engine optimization for a select group of clients several years ago but decided to get out of online marketing for other people and focus on our own sites. This year after many meeting and lots of talks we have decided to once again start offering search engine optimization.
First step is setting up all the stats so everyone can see them, I’m doing that now and I’m setting them for unique visitors only and keep in mind that forum visitors do not count.
I’m going to use Statcounter so it will take me a couple minutes to get everything set up and posted on the blogs.
Inspired by Bill Hartzer, I have decided to do some testing. I’m going to start by signing up with some of the book marking sites and figuring out how they work. I’ll make a post about each site.
Then I’m going to use those sites to get traffic for 4 other sites including this one. I’m going to make all the stats public so everyone can see them and I’m going to add new post to each site everyday,
I’m using blogs on 3 of the sites and the fourth will be an online mail order bride site that I once owned but have since sold to a really nice guy I would like to try and help out.
The sites are listed below
I’m using several in different areas to see how each area does.
Ok Let’s get started.
I wrote this in a forum post a while back when someone was talking about everything or most everything having to do with luck. Someone brought it back up today and I thought it was worth a blog post. This is my response to the post and what I think about luck.
I don’t believe in luck, although I do believe that God looks out for us and sometimes allows things to happen, to get us back on track.
But the real problem with luck is the abuse it has taken over the years.
People refer to the poor as the “unlucky” and to the rich as “the lucky”
This way we don’t blame the person that ignores education, has no work ethics and develops poor decision making. He’s just unlucky.
There’s no personal fault involved, they can’t be blamed, its just bad luck.
The rich, their success has nothing to do with attention to education, willingness to work or careful decision making.
They were just lucky.
In this way we can destroy the individual and account everything to luck.
This allows the government to come and take the money from the rich and give to the poor.
After all the rich did not earn the money they were just lucky, so they should have to share their money with the less lucky.
I do a lot of reading on SEO forums and it seems that a lot of the so called expert Search Engine Optimizer’s don’t even make their living online.
Most of them either work for someone else or do a lot of off line marketing along with their online marketing. I’m constantly getting spam emails and phone calls from these so called experts. I have to wonder, if SEO is so good then why are they resorting to phone calls and spam emails?
I live in a third would country (Colombia South America) and not have the option of doing things off line, I have to figure out what works and make it work for me. I think it’s sad that all these other people that are unable to make a living online are trying to get me to pay them to do for me what they can’t do for themseleves.
Orkut is an Internet social network service run by Google and named after its creator, Google employee Orkut Büyükkökten.
It claims to be designed to help users meet new friends and maintain existing relationships. Similar to Friendster and MySpace, orkut goes a step further by permitting the creation of easy-to-setup simple forums (called “communities”) of users. Unlike some other social networks, orkut is invitation-only: users need to be invited by a member to join.
The funny part about Orkut is that it has become a place for Brazilians and most people in the US don’t even know it exists.
