Will Google be effected by the continuing credit crunch?
And what effect will it have on Adsense publishers? I am sure this question has been asked many times over. I did come accross a report at http://www.vnunet.com/ that quotes : IDC’s report found that Google continued to extend its lead in the US internet advertising market in the first quarter. The company’s estimated net [...]
Top bottom or in the middle
I’ve been browsing through a few blogs that are members of EntreCard and this made me think about the best position of the Entrecard widget. Top – above the fold so the visitor does not need to scroll down the page. This is the best position in respects of attracting other blogs to advertise on [...]
Entrecard is safe from automated bots
As I registered with Entrecard to advertise my blog on other blogs I wanted to ensure that drops could not be automated. There are already sites out there that will load a number of blogs in seperate browser windows so the user can then drop on each of them but the user does have to [...]
Just joined EntreCard

YzooBlog and YzooMail have gone
I am afraid to anounce that both YzooBlog and YzooMail services have been withdrawn and the sites have been taken down. It is hoped that both could be relaunched in the future with a more robust system or maybe we can partner with someone who is able to develop and manage one or both of [...]
Blog Move successfull
OK the blog has been transferred to another of our servers. This was done because we are shutting down the YzooBlog and YzooMail services due to the spam they both received. It has not been viable to keep them both running and free from spam as the income earned from them did not cover the [...]
Moving Server
As we are closing YzooBlog.com down due to the amount of spam sites I am in the process of moving my blog to another of our servers. Just my luck my ISP didn’t update their DNS until late tonight so I’ve not had a chance to copy the blog content to the new server. Updates [...]
Strange things with Google sitemaps
As I mentioned in my last post Google did reindex YzooSearch but the pages where old and fairly out of date. Well over a month later the number of pages showing as being indexed by Google remains the same and the old pagesĀ are showing in the results. Don’t get me wrong, I am grateful [...]
No Posts for past month
I must appologise for the fact I haven’t posted for the past month, I was away for about 2 and a half weeks and been busy the rest of the time. At the end of July I sent a reinclusion request to Google as they had totally dropped Yzoosearch from their index. Well while I [...]
