This is what your rank in the search engines are worth

August 12, 2006 | By Thord Daniel Hedengren | Filed Under General

SEO Black Hat has devised a nice little tool for finding out where you rank in various search engines, and added the estimated click rate itâ€™ll give you. Iâ€™ll let someone else delve into how accurate these numbers are, but in either case itâ€™s an interesting read, and a tool most of the bloggers out there should try out.

How’d you do, and does it appear to be accurate?

Toronto’s Globe and Mail is asking the question that’s on everybody’s mind (sarcasm): Does rapper Kanye West have a “ghost blogger?”
While the concept of ghost writing is hardly new (celebs have been relying on professional writers to create content that is officially credited to them forever), it looks like ghost blogging is blipping onto [...]

July 18, 2008 | By Thord Daniel Hedengren | 1 Comment

PodPress is probably the most used podcasting plugin for WordPress, and the one we’ve been using here at The Blog Herald.
