Alex is a marketer hitting that stride.  The money making ones always seem to be the shuck ‘n jive type of personalities.  What I think he needs to grow is a conscience, as you need to care that your product development blind spots could dearly cost your customers time and money.

Put KeywordXP thru its paces, for sure.

I can’t promise I won’t try the next one to come along, but I definitely dig it.

I used a Fiverr gig to have Piwik set up.  At first, when I installed the WP-Piwik plugin, I was getting no stats despite putting my tracking code in.  But I tinkered to get it going.

I’ve attached a screenshot of the setting that enabled stats on every site right away….

Hope that helps you,

loving Piwik too.

No, Josh is legit.  Charles is explaining the they’re marked up by AB and you could just bypass that by knowing who the source is.

Joash sells thru semimpact.com if interested.

Yes, KeywordXP is on vers 3 so they bring in development money by offering new versions.  It’s pretty good… like Keyword Advantage with a bunch of features added.

I am a true keyword tool tramp.  And Keyword Advantage has been my go-to app lately, but I took a chance on KeywordXP a few days ago, and I’m glad I did.  Spent a few days waiting out a patch that it needed to deal with a change Google made to GAKP, but now it’s rocking.

It’s amazing, given how busy those two guys are, that they even made a commitment to work on a structure like this. It really took a big jump when the whole Rent A Serp fiasco went on, and I guess they experienced some hypergrowth that was probably unexpected. My philosophy is that all of this is gravy in relation to the software that I’ve…[Read more]

I switched over to Web 2.0 Commando last month. FCS was good to me, but I really got tired of the drudgery of working with that interface. Thought about learning GSA, but there are only so many hours in the day.

Most of my struggle is that I don’t do keyword research the same way twice. I mean, I guess you could say that there is a skeleton framework for how I approach it, but I still like to do a bunch of different things depending on what type of niche you talking about. Product keyword research is remarkably different for me from service keyword…[Read more]

I’m not touching question number four. But in answer to your other questions, I don’t do anything with misspellings. I’d rather punch legitimate competitors in the mouth.

Please tell me you’re not using AdSense on PBN sites?

I’m sort of a sap when it comes to hard luck stories.  And so I’m paying a full time lady in Manila now (my third VA, egad), but I’m not keeping her busy – I just know she has a baby and needs the job.

Anyway, if you guys can see your way to buying links from my PBN, I will do it high-authority, front-page yada yada to keep her busy.…[Read more]

Labour.

(’nuff said.)

Good to have you in the group, Charles!  I think you’ll like the environment here.

I use the Scrapebox addon, and it runs overnight doing a pretty comprehensive yob.

Yes, I hate Drupal too.  But it’s just one more opportunity to erase footprint.

I’ve hired a full time Drupal designer today. All of my PBN sites are leaving WordPress.
