The Adult Webmaster

I’m a huge fan of Best of the Web, when it comes to getting my sites indexed and ranking in the serps. This directory is the next best thing to dir.yahoo.com or dmoz.org, imo. There are plenty of pages with high PR bleed to help get your new sites ranking well.

Usually I submit sites here that I don’t have time to build link-backs to, but I know are potentially big earners if they rank well in the serps.

So immediately after designing and optimizing my site, I will submit it for a lifetime listing at BOTW. Within a month it usually has a decent PR ranking and then I just make a post on some webmaster forums that I have a “PRx” site looking for link trades. With this technique I am able to pick and choose who I link with a little easier, because they are looking at PR usually, while I am focusing on the overall quality of their site. If I started with a PR0 domain looking for on topic link trades, I wouldn’t really be able to pick and choose because few people want to link with a brand new site.

Anyway, this may be a high price to pay for some in gaining a single link, but in my linking strategy it is one of my first places to go for a somewhat authoritative link-back.

Now you probably read all of that and are saying, “hey I though this post was about a promo code?” Well I just wanted to get your juices flowing before I gave you the big prize.

This code is good for 20% off any botw directory listing for the month of March, just enter it during checkout: 4LEAFCLOVER.

It’s times like these I am proud to be a member of the American Civil Liberties Union!

Yesterday, the ACLU won their longstanding challenge to an Internet Censorship Law!!!

Basically the repercussions consist of parents becoming responsible enough to monitor their children’s computer usage. Long gone are the days of plopping little Johnny down in front of sponge pants square tv.

Webmasters, continue to self label and rate your websites.

Oh and lets not forget, everyone who values their protections under the Bill of Rights, join the ACLU today! (They might protect you from big brother tomorrow!)
