Victory?

I don't know. There was a moment already when I declared victory on this blog, and it was kinda premature... After several days I was dropped from the first page of SERPS, traffic went, and so were earnings. I had several spikes of traffic since then, but neither stayed more than a handfull of days.

My earnings were more or less stable in the are of $30 a day, and climbed steadily - but slowly... Finally late February I got a kind of jump, and it stays in the area of $150 a day - which was the intermidiate goal. To be precise, those earning are combined Adsense and Widget Bucks, and Widget Bucks gives about 1/3...

Optimizing internal linking. Tool for this with download link.

Trying to optimize my internal linking to get more juice to adsense pages to rank, I followed Dan Thies's advice and downloaded the great piece of software. I did some analysis on my site. Sure enough it appeared I have a few places I can improve on. I spent the day today figuring out the changes I have to make and applying them, and looks like I'm done with this by now. It is not going to play out today or tomorrow, but over the course of a week or two I expect Google (and other engines, too) to pick up my new internal link structure, and give a due attention to the pages I made accent on.

I love the tool by the way, and I highly recommend you go ahead and download it, too. Of course if you want to control what your pages have higher ranking then others. If you don't, that's you decision :). I'm not aware of any other software doing the similar job showing you how you can accentuate your important (adsense!) pages for search engines. Plus you have really good customer support. No, I'm not affiliated with the author in any sense, I just came there by Dan's recommendation, and I love the tool. It's absolutely free, and here is the link: http://www.seo4fun.com/php/pagerankbot.php
