4th Quarterly Competition

Time once again for my competition entries. This time for the 4th Quarterly (Yardley Photographic Society)…..

Tide out, Mist In

Dead Tree

Not sure about either image to be honest – the full size versions work well, but when resized down to 1024×768 it loses the detail. Both images have been manipulated a little bit in Lightroom first and finished off using some Nik plugins i’m testing at the moment.

Oh, an update from the Rose Bowl comp – my surfer picture won.

SEO Spammers

Lets take a little time to see what they are offering.

Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your **SEO SPAM CRAP ** SEO is is missing a few factors

O.k., Just a few????

for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization.

I really do not care what the H tags are to be honest. Here’s some Italics and Bold and now Bold Italics

**SEO SPAM CRAP ** SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings

Pandas are pretty

You now NEED **SEO SPAM CRAP ** SEO. So what is good **SEO SPAM CRAP ** SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.

I don’t care

I’m sure this means something to some oneYour Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword…

Losing interest

wait there’s even more

Now I’m interested

Now what if i told you there was a simple WordPress plugin that does all the **SEO SPAM CRAP ** SEO, and automatically for you? That’s right AUTOMATICALLY

Actually I lied
