sorry I had servern problem’s but I got some funny news i recived from reading an ebook someone sent me

here is what the post said

“Suing Google Because Your Google Site Ranking Sucks
from the try-again dept
A few years back, you may recall the “SearchKing” case, where Google penalized a search engine optimizer for gaming its system — a fairly common practice in the company’s ongoing attempts to keep search engine spammers out, while making searches more relevant. Well, in this case, the guy wasn’t too happy (and it certainly didn’t reflect well on his optimization technique), and he eventually sued Google. It didn’t take long at all for a judge to dismiss the case, noting that Google’s ranking was their opinion and, thus, protected free speech. However, with so many sites relying so much on Google, and the constant shifts in rankings, you knew it was only a matter of time before such a case popped up again. Google has now been sued by a firm that is upset at its ranking. While the article isn’t entirely clear, it sounds like this was a site that was entirely blacklisted, probably for its own aggressive search engine optimization techniques — and so they’re trying to set up a class action suit on behalf of all sites blacklisted by Google. This seems just as silly (and as likely to succeed) as the original case, but the lawyers this time are trying a slightly different argument. They’re suggesting that Google is an “essential facility” and by penalizing sites with no explanation and no recourse, they’re unfairly hurting businesses. Of course, proving Google as an “essential facility” may take a bit of work — and could open up the floodgates. The real issue is that, even though many companies do, relying on a single source as a way of driving business is always a risky position to be in. It’s a business decision to rely on Google, and not look for other methods of driving traffic. Google is an outside party and can do what they want. While many people do rely on Google, that doesn’t mean they have to do anything for other sites, other than try to keep their index as relevant as possible to keep their users happy.”

This is a great way to get traffic just posting that you really sued google should get you some feedback. I just thought it was a funny traffic making techniue and I should share it with you guys

Restaurant Business can make you a ProBlogger

Well I’ve been crazy busy with my Computer Repair Business Nerdhelpers.com. So I was setting up a restaurant Point of sale system and Since I was there for a long time I got to thinking and realized that Restaurant business is much like the blogging business.

The restaurant business is so much like blogging.

1. To have a successful restaurant you need to have a good looking store

To have a good blog you also need a good looking site

2. To have a successful restaurant you need to have a theme (Mexican , burger themes)

To have a successful blog you need to have a theme (make money online, tech)

3. To have a successful restaurant you need some type of luck

To have a successful blog you need a good deal of luck

and The most important one is:

4.To have a successful restaurant you need to have good tasting food

To have a successful blog you need to have good content

And there you go, there are so many similarities of a blog and a restaurant but what does this all mean to you?

well if you read books on how to start a successful restaurant and you base those techniques in you blog you will definitely have a better chance of making it.

If you read other make money blogs they all say as long as you have good content you will make it.

It’s hard to believe that but it’s true. What if you go to a restaurant that doesn’t look that good (as long as it’s clean your in good shape) but the food is great will you tell your friends about it and-you will visit the restaurant again.

The same concept goes for blogging if your in the make money online niche and your content is great but your blog doesn’t look that great (as long as it’s readable) then when you leave a comment on another blog and someone follows and visits your site they will read your content, love what you wrote and they will tell all there friends (blog about you) and even subscribe to your feed and revisit your site again. It’s that easy.

The hard part is writing good content.

I’m the same way I have a problem writing good content. So how do you fix this?

Get someone to write your content for you, you could find people on site like sitepoint.com for $7 dollars per post. I personally like to write crappy Post that’s just my style

Creating a robots.txt

• Author: Alexander Batista
• Filed under: Bulding Traffic
• Date: Jan 24,2008

If you ever heard of a robot.txt file then you always woundered if it really helps search engine ranking. the robot.txt file does not help search engine ranking but that doesn’t mean you don’t need it.

  A robots.txt file can also be set up to instruct specifically which robots
have permission to crawl your files. For instance you may choose to disallow
known email address harvesters from your files.

Good Reasons to use robot.txt is to Disallow Crawling of a Particular File

- Private Files - Certainly you don’t necessarily need or even desire for
your site logs and such to be indexed by the search engines.

- Test Files - Many webmasters will upload a page for a client to preview or
as a test page to work through coding challenges etc.

Why you should consider getting a robots.txt file?

- When a robot crawls your site it looks for the robots.txt file. If it
doesn’t find one it assumes automatically that it may crawl and index the
entire site. Not having a robots.txt file can also create unnecessary 404
errors in your server logs, making it more difficult to track “real” 404
errors.

- Assuming you want your entire site indexed and only want to stop the
unnecessary 404 errors from occurring you have a couple of options.

* Upload a blank robots.txt file to the root directory of your domain.

*Upload a simple robots.txt file to the root directory of your domain.

What is a simple robots.txt file?

This code allows all robots to crawl all files.

User-agent: *
Disallow:

What if I don’t want a particular file crawled?

Please note: Disallowing a file to be crawled will keep it from being
indexed. The file disallowed will not show up in the search engines.

This allows all robots to crawl all files except the images file.

User-agent: *
Disallow: /images/

This allows all robots to crawl all files except the images file and the
stats file.
User-agent: *
Disallow: /images/
Disallow: /stats/

What if I want to disallow a particular robot?

- Occasionally you may find that you would like to disallow specific robots
from crawling your site or limit which files they may have access to.
(Please note that most of the so called “bad robots” will simply disregard
your robots.txt file.)

*This denies access to Googlebot-image to any files in your domain.

User-agent: Googlebot-Image
Disallow: /

*This specifically denies Googlebot-image to your images file

User-agent: Googlebot-Image
Disallow: /images/

- For a current data base of robot names and information, visit:
http://www.robotstxt.org/wc/ active/html/ index.html

How do I create a robots.txt file?

- Simply create a text document and save the new document as robots.txt Do
not use a html editor to create the file unless is has the ability to create
a plain text document (ASCII). Most computers will allow you to create a
text document using notepad.

- Create robots.txt file

- Right click on your desktop

- Choose new

- Choose text document

- Open the document you just created

- Insert instructions to robots

- Click on save as

- Save document as robots.txt

That’s all you will ever need to know about robot.txt

Well I’ve been a bad GEEK. Here at thegeekboys I’ve been deceiving everyone.

How?

Good question, first I’d like to say I would have done it longer but because of some hater’s that exposed me to fast I couldn’t reek all the benefits.

What I’m talking about is faking you RSS subscription and if it really helps by getting more subscribers.

well in the study I had it up for about 1 1/2 weeks and it got me 15 more subscribers.

Like I said before I  would have gotten more but some haters exposed me.

15 subscriber might not seem like alot but to me it’s GREAT. So maybe you guys should try being alittle evil and see your traffic sky rocket.

Tips for Free

Well this week i’ve been very busy so this post is small.

So the tip is about blogging to help build traffic. Try not to do your best post (the post you have been dieing to post. the post you think will make your blog) In the beginning of the month.

At the beginning of the month you have post like johnchow.com monthly income that will over shadow your post. I personally save these post for the mid week and mid month. I fell like that’s the best time.

Tip 2: Try to save the best post for around the time when no other blogger in your nitch is really posting any good post (when they post alot of stupid personal shit) what will happen is after alittle time you will start to steal there audience
