A Quick Look Back at July 2007

Continuing with my "house cleaning" aka sorting the interlinking of this blog and making the archive a bit more Google-friendly, here's a look back at what happened in SEO / AM in July 2007.

I took on Chard Estate Agents in London and was looking for property-type sites that could review it and link ... nothing happened on that front. But at least the designers are ready to switch the new site live anytime soon.

I then had a moan about delivery companies and foriegn customer support. This time Amazon customer service witnessed my disatisfaction. Now all's well now and I've never been buying more with them.

I went through a faze of moaning about Facebook and why people aren't leveraging it and how most don't even understand the opportunities. A lot of water has gone under the bridge since then and it's getting more press mentions. I then followed this up with a post about the falling traffic levels of some social networks - it was an interesting read I think, but no-one commented. Another post that missed the mark was one about Google becoming a social player with their user interaction. I then had another swipe at those who are blind to the social media opportunities. I then did a post about how Digg et al could be playing a part in Google algorythm.

Then there was the balls-up with Buy.at publishing a load of user email addresses by mistake. The guys apoligised and we all got on our merry way.

I did a post about PPC mistakes and opportunities for affiliates and referenced a sandbag retailer.

I offered some domains for sale but had no interest. At least its reminded me to offer them on eBay.

There was a very good reason why I wasn't at the G2G that month. Boy was it worth it!

I had a go at spammers (again) and then mentioned an increase in SEO spend :D.

I then started a range of posts about how people don't really understand affiliate marketing. And there was to come!
