Neither did you. I commented on half the items in the list to show why I disagree with such lists. Yes, I've done plenty of link-building but I don't think it gives me any more authority on the subject than the next guy. What's a more impor

How do you measure what and how much it matters? I'm saying making lists of ranking factors is not a good idea. Not that all SEO advice is useless.

Let me elaborate, then. The list is dubious. There are some solid arguments against making such lists in the article I linked to. The web is made of links, people, companies, bots and more. What's a "genuine organic" link? > Exact match

You will quickly find out that the scrapers are coming from USA-based proxies, they pretend to be Google or Bing, they use an intermediary (say, Google Cache)... and so on, until you are tired of fighting them. It's a losing game, unless yo

How about applying a coating to your lungs? Then they can't get dirty from all the glass nanoparticles flying around.

I understand where you are coming from with this but let's consider the security implications of embedding just anything in the browser. A prime example is embedding custom fonts with CSS. The code that handles them wasn't built with arbitr

It's pretty hilarious that the big record labels also dabble in "piracy", releasing stuff without permission from the artists.
