I know this has noting to do with making money or loopholes but...

I thought I'd write a blog post to introduce my new blog and to get a much needed back-link to it! My new blog is called Tasty Tagine Recipes and you can take a look at it yourself by clicking on the following link - Tagine Recipes . I did have it on a free domain name to start but decided that I liked it that much that i'd move over to a .com domain, especially since GoDaddy has their excellent special offer on at the moment so I got that domain AND an identical .info domain for the measly price of 88p for 1 year!

The actual site itself has been a work in progress for the past week but I haven't done too much work on it because I just knew I wanted to make it a .com so any work I'd have done publicizing it would have been a waste of time. Unfortunately Google decided to index it and the links so I've had to throw up a 301 redirect on the old domain name so that I don't get a Google slap for EXACT duplicate content so I've gotta wait now for Google etc to update and send the love back to the new domain.

Once that's done I think I may also make it into a project for all to see how it's doing on this blog just so that you all can see how it's doing, bring in some reports, how to's and what not's. I'm aiming to at least make my 88p back over the course of the year which should easily be achievable! If it starts making enough i'll move it over to a paid hosting site as well rather than it being stuck on a free host with their restrictions, i'd rather have a host that doesn't restrict daily visitors too much really but I suppose what i've got for the time being is sufficient for now until it makes enough to pay for itself on a paid host.

To start with I think i'll make weekly posts explaining what i've done that week, how many links are indexed, how many backlinks (DoFollow) have stuck and are viewable, social media stats etc. Then, once it's a bit more established and people start linking etc off their own back i'll update twice monthly and then monthly.

So, if you want to see the ins and outs of a start up site with just a paid domain name and free hosting so as to make it as cheap as possible then start subscribing to the RSS feed or bookmark us for future reference and pop back often. I do aim to try and post daily if at all possible but that obviously depends on whether I find something I think worthwhile mentioning to you all.

I've also made a couple of changes to the blog which you may have noticed, mainly social bookmarking buttons and the sidebar. I hope that some of you find my content interesting enough to bookmark and/or pass on to other friends, followers etc. I'm averaging approximately 500 visitors a month at the moment which isn't bad considering I've only just taken over the running of it and it had been neglected for some time! If there's anything any of you want to see in particular then please leave your comments below or elsewhere in the blog and I'll do my best to give you what you want.

How to post to 4 social networking sites at once for offsite SEO gain

Here's a neat little trick that will allow you to post to 4 social networking sites (if you have the accounts for them that is but it's easy to make and start them) all at once to save you having to log into each one and post your latest post etc each time. They even give you a little browser button add on so you can do it all from the page you want to post which makes things 10x easier for you!

The site i'm talking about is - http://seesmic.com (formerly ping.fm) , just pop along there, sign up for free and add your social networking accounts to the account and if you want add the browser add on for extra ease of use. All you've gotta do then is start adding the posts you want to get indexed fast, viewed etc and bob's your uncle, fanny's your aunt, job's done, Simple as that!

Now, a lot of you must know that Google simply loves social media sites at the moment so any post you put on those sites will get crawled quickly and a lot of weight is added to any links it picks up from them also so it's a great idea to get as many natural looking links from them. Even though it's only 4 sites it's a good start and so simple to set up you'll kick yourself for not knowing about this earlier.

Next thing i'm gonna blog about is going to go one step further than this post as I'm gonna show you a site which has 58 social networking and bookmarking sites for you to add your accounts to and also has 160+ RSS feeds (although i'm not too sure what to do with the RSS feeds yet!) I know 58 sites is a lot to sign up for and add but it's well worth it in the end and also why I've only given you seesmic.com to start you off with so you can see how much easier it is for you.

I hope you're liking the kind of stuff i'm bringing to you all, if there's anything you want to mention, comment about or even ask for inclusion then please don't hesitate to reply via the comments box in any of my blog posts and I will do my best to answer you as best I can. Thanks for reading.

How to get nearly 500 FREE backlinks to all of your sites.

Here's a great way to get nearly 500 backlinks with your keyword as anchor text for free, zilch, zip, nada, zero! All you have to do to get these free backlinks is to head to this site - www.http://freebacklinktool.com and signup for their free account and then login. Once you've done that, click on the Members link at the top and then in the members area click on 'create backlinks'.

On the next page all you need to do is enter your website address and keyword (anchor text) in the boxes provided and click 'start backlinking'. It will take approximately 6-7 minutes to complete and you will need to keep that browser window open (you can open a new tab and browse elsewhere whilst it's running!), Once it's done it will tell you that it's completed and how many site's you've been bookmarked at with a complete list of which sites and where it's pinged for you.

It really is as simple as that! Nearly 500 backlinks will do anyone's offsite SEO some good no matter if they are low PR sites or not, every backlink counts in this game! My next post will be about a social networking promotion/posting site where you can send out your post to a number of social sites at once for even greater Google love!

How to bypass the piratebay.se block on virgin, talk talk and other ISP's

Hi, My name's Mike aka. (h4x0rm1k3) and I have taken control of this blog from the original author as he didn't have any time to keep on top of it. I believe that this could be a great blog with a little love and attention so i'm here to try and bring some life back into it!
Anyway, on to the main reason for this post, A lot of us in the UK have now had our access to www.thepiratebay.se blocked because of the recent ruling on the 27th April 2012. First it was Virgin media that blocked access and now Talk Talk has blocked access so i'm guessing it'll be a clean sweep soon!
As some of you may notice it is difficult and pointless using a public proxy so I have started using a different way which is painless, simple and also adds an extra layer of security to your system.

I have now started using a  service called a VPN which is short for Virtual Private Network. The way this works is very similar to a VPN but adds extra security to your browsing. Putting it simply it uses a program on your PC to change your IP to 1 that they have for you which allows you to browse the internet as you see fit but also in a way that no-one can tell where you come from as your I.P address is different which means that they can't hack you or try to use unsigned code!
By using a VPN in this way you can browse blocked sites like www.thepiratebay.se , download what torrent files you want and then turn off your VPN and run the torrent files up into your favourite torrent client. This will allow your torrent client to download the file still as it's not actually accessing thepiratebay.se, it's connecting to all the seeds and peers through the piratebay's tracker which isn't blocked!

Now, I bet you're thinking about how to get a VPN service now and what it's gonna cost? I can tell you that there is a well known and popular free VPN service that you can use for this and general browsing and it's real simple to setup and use. This free VPN service I talk about is called 'Hotspot Shield' by anchorfree. All you need to do is visit this link here - http://mydati.com//download/hss-win2/DM-338.exe (direct download link for free version). Once you've got the download double click on it to start installation, there is probably a few options you need to click off during the installation as they ask if you want the ask toolbar etc so untick them and just let it complete it's download and installation. Once it's completed it will start a secure connection straight away for you which you can turn off anytime by opening up your  system tray (bottom right corner) and right clicking on the shield icon, from that menu you can turn on or off the VPN service so you go to and from normal to secure (unblock) browsing.

For a free VPN Hotspot Shield is an excellent service which for the free version, doesn't show many ads, in fact in over 30 pages browsed I never saw 1 apart from when you 1st turn on the VPN but then it's only a webpage which can be closed or moved away from with no problems. Again, the use of a VPN allows you to browse the internet completely anonymously because you're not displaying your real I.P address.
So, if you want to be able to browse www.thepiratebay.se again then you'll definitely be needing this guide because it will allow you complete access to the internet with no access blocks or whatever. This should also be useful if you're ever in a country with certain blocks on the internet.
