Permalink Migration Plugin - Great Plugin For SEO
I was debating with Ajay this morning the merits of having a co.uk or a .com domain and whether having a .com address would result in better placement by Google. I’m still not sure what’s best, but Ajay prompted me to make what is probably the most important change to my blog I’ve made [...]

Which Services To Ping When You Write A New Post
A recent post I made in week 2 of Pimp My Blog, made me realise I’ve never written about the benefits of correctly pinging directories and services when you write a new post. Ensuring that you ping services like Technorati when you add a new post, will force them to crawl and index your site, [...]

Your Blog Traffic Is Low Because You’re Using The Wrong Hotspots

Update: Progress On Cutting Down On Plugins
Yesterday, I made significant progress on my goal to cut down the number of plugins I use. I’ve even removed one of my previously ‘untouchable’ plugins, the Landing Sites plugin, after doing a Head-2-Head of its results against the Related Posts Plugin, and finding that the Related Posts Plugin actually produced more relevant results.

The Dos And Don’ts For Driving Traffic To A New Website
I’ve had a lot of conversations over the last couple of weeks mainly via email on how to increase website traffic, which is one of the reasons I started the Connected Internet Forum this week as I wanted to try and capture these conversations and include more people in the discussions.
In my view there are [...]
Congratulations John On Making The Technorati 100
JohnTP has been running a Technorati Favourites exchange for the last week or so, and he’s already made the 100 Most Favourited (is there such a word?) Sites. At first, I couldn’t see why he was bothering as the Technorati favourites scheme is pretty poor, but then he revealed his plan was to get into [...]

Will Panama Allow Yahoo To Close The Gap On Google?
Yahoo, have started to roll out it’s search engine upgrade Panama across the US. A statement on TechCrunch has just just made me realise that I’d totally misunderstood what Panama was. I thought that Panama was Yahoo’s next generation of search engine, designed to close the gap on Google. However, according to TechCrunch Panama will:

Give To Charities While You Search
I’ve been racking my brains this week to come up with a way to help some charities online this Christmas. I already do some charity work online by looking after BrainBlogger, the blog for the Global Neuroscience Initiative Foundation (GNIF), but I wanted to do more this Christmas.
Luckily, while I’m looking for a personal [...]
How Do You Get A Digg Ban Lifted?
Connected Internet has a dark secret - it’s banned by Digg. A couple of months ago, readers started emailing me to say they were having problems submitting articles. Despite emailing abuse@digg.com numerous times, I haven’t been able to get the ban lifted. They won’t even reply to my emails.
I’m not sure why [...]
Why Is Yahoo’s Search Bot Constantly Crawling My Site?
I like to keep an eye on my ‘Who’s Online‘ page which can be quite informative and a very quick way of gauging how much traffic I’m getting.
One thing I’ve noticed is that Yahoo’s Search Bot is constantly crawling my site, and that there are always multiple instances running at the same time. Does anyone [...]
