Improve your Google ranking with Peter Mahoney, 20+ years SEO & Wordpress experience
It’s updated to be fully responsive and looks great on portable devices like mobiles and tablets, and I like to think it’s well laid out and easy to use.
It’s actually been up for a few days as a trial, and within 24 hours I had a compliment from someone who had just come across my site for the first time, and said they found it easy to use and navigate.
What do you think?
(Oh yes, I’d be remiss if I didn’t add that I can make you a site just as awesome—ask me how.)
As you’d expect for someone obsessed with SEO I regularly check my own ranking on Google and the other major search engines.
But when 
My first thought was, “But I haven’t changed anything!” and of course, that’s the problem.
I’ve only blogged a few times in the past four months. I used to keep a regular schedule of three times a week, and Google loved me for it. It got their SEO juices flowing. But now, I’m falling – and it’s totally because I’m not generating enough content.
Content really is king for SEO. Yes there are all sorts of things you can do behind the scenes (and as a WordPress SEO expert – those are my specialty) but ultimately SEO is about reinforcing your core content; key messages, what you’re all about – that sort of thing.
After the sort of work I do the next most important thing to keep Google, Bing – all the search engines happy -is to have regular, topical, original content on your site. And there’s almost no better way to achieve that than blogging. It doesn’t need to be called a blog of course – you can call that section Update, or News – whatever creates an area in your site where you’ll be posting regularly.
It’s ironic in one way (and not in the Alanis sense, but something that actually fits the definition of irony) in that I write to at least two clients a day extolling the virtues of blogging. I’ve been so busy preaching the blogging gospel that I haven’t had the time to do it myself.
Well, all that changes today. Thrice a week, you’ll see me writing. And you’ll see me back at number one as a result of those efforts.
And I won’t feel like such a hypocrite when delivering my SEO sermons.
Which we did, in record time. And boy-oh-boy is the site better for it!

It's official Yahoo acquires Tumblr for $1.1 billion, so now is a very good time to move to WordPress.

He had an online brand that was working pretty well, but then another site that in practice was unrelated, and a desire for a third to help attract different clients, but for a similar product offering.
Step one was to get the existing site working for him, ready to integrate with his personal brand. And that’s where we’re at, so after quite some years without any change or improvement, The Shyness Clinic is finally ready to fly.
Have you ever uploaded a photo to Facebook, Instagram or Flickr?
Previously, and in most of the world today, ownership of your creation is automatic, and legally considered to be an individual’s property. That’s enshrined in the Berne Convention and other international treaties, where it’s considered to be a basic human right.
The new UK law reverses this human right.
