Backgammon Guide
Backgammon Guide
Ok Google has now found the site and has it indexed. I linked 2 sites into it and if the theory is correct then my time in the sandbox is now ticking.
I've a few other projects on the go just now which need done first but I will get round to building some relevant information into it soon.

Backgammon Guide
Backgammon Guide
Anyone like playing Backgammon? There are many places to play online and so I'm going to start an internet guide to playing.
I haven't got much time at the moment though so it'll take a while before it gets going. What I've done though is put the rules of the game up on a basic page with nothing else. This way I can get a link or two to the site and then at least it will get looked at by Google.
My aim - to get the site out of the dreaded Google sandbox as quickly as possible after the site is running.

By the way - this is my favourite curry dish that I've made so far. A lovely Chicken Jalfrezi which was submitted to one of the visitors to the site.

Curry Recipes
Have a look at this new site of mine if your into making curries. There are loads of curry recipes to make and I'd be delighted if anyone wants to send some in for inclusion within the curry recipe site.
This is going to be purely a hobby site for me where I don't make any money but there are no pressures on to obtain good rankings in the search engines.

Google Search
It looks like Google has had another smaller shake-up to its serps results. Google doesn't send me many visitors but when there is some movement it's nice to see if my pages have moved sky-ward.
Doesn't look like it though and some seem to have slipped a bit. Again, less time on producing quality information seems needed and more on links - so frustrating!
Oh well - on with the link swapping.

Frustrated with the Search Engines
This week has seen huge updates with all the leading search engines. Google, Yahoo and MSN Beta to name the larger ones have all changed the serps listings for searches.
Needless to say I've dropped almost all my decent positions and I'm not in the happiest of moods. Google and MSN didn't do all that much for me anyway but I have good listings in Yahoo and they've all gone.
The bit that gets me most with these updates is that they all seem to favour more backlinks and the way they see a sites popularity. For the smaller Webmasters like myself, this is a pain as I've been spending my time, although it's been limited these last few months, on new quality, relevant content rather than link swapping.
It's a shame that rather than content being the foremost positioning tool, swapping links is deemed the best. This just leads to spammy sites obtaining good rankings rather than people who are posting good quality content.
Rant over..... I suppose it's back to swapping links.

Welcome to Gmail
Welcome to Gmail
Gmail is the Google email service. At the moment it's still only accepting new members by invitation only. Every new account gets 6 invitations to send to people. I've a few left. If anyone wants one, let me know.
