I know I am not the world’s smartest man but this link is to test some of the strange things happening on the Internet at the moment – until this week I believed links were an important factor in Search engine placement, but I have been studiously avoiding them for over a year to test some other theories.
I will not got into all the ideas and discussions about Search Engine Optimisation, all I can say is that nobody can now claim to be an expert and that most techniques in the past are likely to be irrelevant.
In response to your comment on my Shoemoney blog, claiming I ripped the article from outside sources, I’d like to point out that infact, I did NOT. The articles on my Affiliate Defined blog at present are ALL articles I have purchased Private Lable Rights too, meaning I can use them as I want, and claim them as my own. It seems infact, that the site you referred to, may ALSO have used these articles.
As for any content on Shoemoney, or blogs beside my own (which for now is merely a space filler), is all hand written by me, and me only.
That is a very interesting reply David – if you say that by paying for the use of someone elses writing you can do anything you want with it, including claiming them to be your own, then this is a sad state of affairs as it, to me, smacks of deception.
Quoting other peoples comments, opinions and writing is normal, I do it all the time although I usually give full accreditation and sources if I know them, selecting writing which supports your own ideas is normal editorial practice, but publishing a whole piece from another site and claiming it to be your own writing can only make you look to be foolish at best and much worse to most people.
I am pleased you do claim to write your own content, but see what is happening – I immediately said “claim to write” – but you admit claiming that other peoples writing is your own on your blog.
You have got plenty of time and clearly a lot to learn.
