Ali Blogging - Alex Jeffreys Coaching Program

The worst thing with the winter time is getting dressed. Especially when taking the children to kindergarten. This is a struggle every morning and this is a fresh struggle.

But online we often have to deal with struggling through ancient monuments for finding what we are looking for. It is a heavy duty sometimes.

Search engines are like rune stones
On an earlier blog post I wrote about that the search engines are rune stones. Because you often find old outdated sites high ranked in the search results. If an outdated site is high ranked it take place from more current sites. This is like a rune stone. If we find a rune stone offline that area is protected by the law and you’re not allowed to build new houses. But this is only for the standard search option. Read more…

I’m thinking again about what to do with the NoFollow tag in WordPress blogs..

But most important is to get all content up to the blog,  “Content is King, keyword is Queen” as was said at Alex Jeffreys webinar.

Anyway here is little more about DoFollow:

See at the bottom of this blog post about using a DoFollow logo. What is your opinion about that??

What is the NoFollow tag?
The NoFollow tag is by default in WordPress added to your visitors comments and then your visitors don’t get any credibility for their activity on your blog. Your visitors should have credibility for adding information on your blog and therefore get their links “followed”.

This means that the search engines follow the link on the comment on your blog to your visitors site and your visitors sites will hopefully get higher ranked in the search engines.

Best solution is to use the DoFollow tag
I think the best solution is to use DoFollow because it is a Win-Win situation. You get more motivated visitors that wants to add valuable information on your blog and at the same time the visitors get credibility for their effort.

Alex Jeffreys coaching group and DoFollow
We in the Alex Jeffreys coaching group should take advantage of the DoFollow tag especially at this moment when we all have recently started and can help each other even more. We are all in a network with real valuable information that together get us higher ranked in the search engines (we have the needed valuable information that visitors are looking for).

When our blogs are more higher “Alexa” ranked it is understandable that we may not use DoFollow.

DoFollow logo
Is it a good idea to have a DoFollow logo or used as a “stamp” that is showing more clearly that a blog use DoFollow? What are your comments? Maybe it’s an overkill? I can’t decide myself.

Anyway my last decision now is that I will not think about this and spend more energy creating content. But this thinking got one extra blog post about this.

When I was bicycling home in the dark from the office I saw the moon light up an old rune stone (but I think it is a copy of the real) beside the path. That info is still there, I thought. It will take time to change that info.

Are the search engines rune stones?
The rune stone is very similar to Google or the other search engines. When it is needed to build new houses, the rune stone stop that project. “No no we cannot build any houses here, the rune stone has taken this place” Save the old for the future, but is it useful?

The same thing is happening in the search engines. For example, I have an old site that I have not done anything to for about 1-2 years now. And it is still in top 10 in Google.

Alex Jeffreys new search engine
Maybe Alex Jeffreys next project is a new fresh search engine. I hope some of the search engines algorithm deletes those web sites that have not been updated the last year. And then I mean delete the web site totally from internet and then it will be open for a new owner to build a new fresh place. This will clean up the web and keep it young and fresh. “What about the oldies??”

Happy for the “crap” sites
It is maybe not the future scenario that the search engines are not like rune stones. And I think we in Alex Jeffreys coaching team should be very happy that there are a lot of “crap” sites. Why?? (coming later)

See you later, must prepare for Christmas now and sleep, we celebrate tomorrow.

I wish you all a Healthy Wealthy Christmas //Ali
