Google Proxy Hacking: How A Third Party Can Remove Your Site From Google SERPs

I ran into a surprising article today that was written by Dan on www.seofaststart.com. I also spotted the same contents on searchengineland.com. If you ever wondered why your site suddenly invisible on Google, you might want to read the article.

"In June of 2006, while working to resolve some indexing issues for a client, I discovered a bug in Google's algorithm that allowed 3rd parties to literally hack a web page out of Google's index and search results. I notified a contact at Google soon after, once I managed to confirm that what we thought we were seeing was really happening."

PhotoWorks Adds Storefronts for Users to Sell Work


Mashable posted an article about Photoworks where you can share your photo and now even sell!

"PhotoWorks, the photo sharing site, has added storefronts to its service, letting you sell your images to site visitors.

The storefront works with a regular shopping cart model. For each user that has a storefront, you can browse through the images and products that they have placed for sale, and purchase the ones you’d like. For photo books in the storefronts, you can flip through the pages to see what’s inside. It looks as though you can currently only sell photo books in the storefront feature."

getting a compliments from clients


Recently I found a testimonial from one of our clients how much he was satisfied with our services. These comments always cheer us up no matter what. Special thing about this testimonial was that he mentioned about my coworker, Joe who is in charge of client relations. While I was reading it, I felt that Vexcom accomplished a lot with designquote.net, a lead service site. It earned good reputation with its superb services and also a bond with co-workers because the service system is not only working by one person nor the program itself. It needs a lot of team work like checking the seriousness of the projects and explanations on how to find a right job and how to get a better quotes in price and quality wise. Since all these team work spun together well, Joe can get great compliments. Warm applause for Joe and to ourselves.

40 IN 5000 OUT


It looks like a pretty good deal.
I do come to the site and see lots of projects available that you can work on.
There are no fishing involved because DQ is checking on every project by phone most of the time and see if the project is a serious deal or not. I wanted to see some more about the projects but I found this testimonial.

"I bought $40 in credits and within 3 days my company had contracts worth more than $5,000. DesignQuote.net has allowed me to focus on development of projects rather than hunting down work. Instead of going out looking for jobs, I have clients who have projects in hand and ready to hear what we can do for them. I can review the job and decide which clients I want to go after. This service changes the way my team works. Thanks DQ!"
