I don’t understand a lot about SEO and this blog really isn’t too concerned about it.  As time goes on I find it more difficult to read due to the medication I take for RLS.  Restless Legs Syndrome.  And so trying to comprehend a text about SEO is difficult.

I like taking photos and enjoy editing them.  Writing doesn’t seem to be affected too much.  But if I sit down with a book I go to sleep after about three pages.  I used to love to read and I have a nice library so this is frustrating to some degree.

But it’s just the way life is. . . You go up and you go down.  You count your blessings and you deal with your problems. You take your meds and YOU will take them too when you need them.

So back to the SEO stuff.  What I DO understand is that linking to posts you find interesting is very important.  And I actually do that quite a bit.  I don’t buy the theory that you want to keep people on your blog so you don’t send them to interesting places.  I find this ludicrous and a lot like trying to collect water with a sieve.  Someone did some testing and found that you are better off showering your readers with interesting links.  Because they will come back for more!

Look at Drudge!  That’s all he does and he has made millions.

In the past we  have concentrated on the StumbleUpon stuff.  And that’s fairly temporary.  What we need to do is send links back and forth from relevant posts.

This is what will produce higher PR and in turn more search engine traffic.

Blogging is fun.  It’s even an entertaining conversation from time to time.

PR is important.  We went through a period where a lot of folks were saying it’s not.  But that was, in my opinion, a reaction to the fact that PR was being reduced on the blogs of a lot of these same folks.   PR helps us to reach out to a larger audience.

I await your comments.  And if I say that  you need  to “draw me a picture” don’t take it personally, alright?
