Larry Rivera – Reclaiming My Rank Position Online

It’s been awhile now since Larry Rivera . com was on the first page of the search engines. I was there for a while and I am not sure exactly what happened that caused me to loose the rank.

I take that back…

I am pretty sure it had to do with what “google” says is relevant. I can’t say I blame them really.

It’s not like I am creating epic changes to the world or anything like that. But I would like it that my Larry Rivera site shows up on the first page in google.

Though I have noticed that the other ” Larry Rivera ” has done some marketing that would push him/them over the top.

What I find interesting is that even though I have the domain name, I don’t have much stuff pointing to this this domain. Continue reading Larry Rivera – Reclaiming My Rank Position Online

Who Else Is Sick And Tired Of SEO?

I just wanted to rant a little bit. We are told all the rules to blogging. How it should be done. The proper way to do this or that. Seriously it is enough to drive this jersey boy crazy!

My blog experience is growing, I write in several different blogs and on each blog I take a different approach.

I have one blog that does indeed get a lot of traffic, however it isn’t very fun to come up with new content and make sure it is seo compliant all the time.

Place like Google and Yahoo are basically the kings of the web. They seem to dictate what they consider important.

Surprisingly enough  I decided to just write what the hell I want to write on my LarryRivera.com blog.  I mean if I spend all my time writing for keywords or locking myself into a particular niche I feel that I am really stunting my creativity and freedom of expression.

So I decided I would take the back door approach to doing what I want. I figure I would simply get my other blogs ranked high. Then point all of them right here to me.

So while I may never have anything of relevance to say on this blog I will still get this blog ranked and will still get traffic to it. All the hard work that goes into blogging, you should be able to just talk about whatever you want and get what is on your mind out.

So while I will continue to market online, I will use this blog purely for my own entertainment purposes, and to hell with anyone that has a problem with that including search engines…..

Another Subject all together sorta..

I am using the Thesis theme for this blog, while I haven’t did much modification to it at all it has some pretty cool features right out of the box. One of them is the multimedia options. From this point forward I will be putting videos on each post that probably have nothing to do with anything other than they entertain me in some way.

I don’t care if it makes me look like a nerd or not. It is what I enjoy.

Goodness this is so unprofessional its not funny. Then again I didn’t get involved with online marketing or blogging because I wanted to be a tight ass professional…….

One last thing,

I would like to take a moment to remember those that lost their life on this day.

There I feel much better now!!!

Do you just write for search engines? What has been your experience with connecting with your readers?


Online Marketing Blog – It Isn’t all It’s Cracked Up To Be?

At this point I have been marketing online for about 9 years. I have learned a ton of stuff on the subject and I must tell you, marketing on the internet isn’t for the weak of heart.

Tip: Using an Online Marketing Blog is the best way to start getting indexed in search engines.

In theory it sounds like a great idea, but for the first 4 years I struggled to just learn the basics.  The stuff they teach you in traditional school is pretty worthless when it comes to learning this craft.

I recommend spending some time on google and researching the basics of online marketing, there is a ton of free information out there on just about every subject.

A huge mistake I see people make all the time is they want to start an online business but they have no real direction.  Don’t go any further in this industry until you know exactly what it is you want to do.
