not a new law, but I don't think you should be allowed to kick field goals in overtime in NFL football. Such an easy way out the majority of the time, getting within the 30 is basically death.

Ranking #11 with an exact match domain is not doing well by any means. Spot 11 gets maybe 1% of the total clicks coming from that search term. Exact Match domains are very easy to rank with minimal link building and quality on site content.

I can't upvote this enough. ranking for red blue yellow is a trivial example on its own, but with an exact match domain, it's hard to NOT rank for it

Codeigniter is great, I have built small micro cms setups and large, advanced apps with it, and it's been easy to use every step of the way. Forums are good, docs are great, lightweight.

It's not that remarkable...Google has provisions for breaking news style content, and as it sees traffic, searches, and ctr increasing for certain urls, it bumps it up in the SERPs...as things reach up the SERPs and especially when things m

you can use proxies with market samurai (admittedly, the way they handle proxies is awkward, but overall, you can avoid google issues completely with a handful of proxies)

Market Samurai is a really great desktop (adobe air) tool to track rankings, research keywords, check out competition levels, etc. It's also the nicest adobe air application I've ever used, hands down.

No its not. Google has said that in situations like this, use a 301 redirect to properly tell them where the actual content is located. Using a 403 is an error page that will tell the spiders that that page doesn't exist anymore, and that c

Sign up for someone like MailChimp or AWeber or Constant Contact and tie into their API. Emailing at volume can be a bitch, so follow in marketer's footsteps and go with a 3rd party. You can be up and running in a day with analytics.
