End of an era

Filed under: General — Joe Brewer @ 3:40 pm

Even though my parents are moving down to Devon tomorrow, and I’ll have loads of things to look forward to (including holidays at their new house, and a heightened sense of independance of my own), I’m feeling a little sad. I said my goodbye’s this evening at Stuart House – I’m glad I made the decision to move out earlier as I feel like Pease Pottage is home now

I have been at Levinia’s for most of the day today doing gardening, and it’s been amazingly theraputic! Garden shreaders are a gardener’s best friend 🙂

Went to a thoughly enjoyable evening at the South Downs Magicians today. Stuart Harley gave a very informative talk on the life and times of Harry Houdini. If you get a chance to go and see his talk, I’m sure that you’ll enjoy it.

For more information on Stuart, you can find his webpage here

Using Joomla! for Affiliate sites

Filed under: Marketing — Joe Brewer @ 3:36 am

I’ve been using Joomla! for a little while, and have been very impressed by the features and community suppport for it. The only pain is keeping up with the security updates, but that’s not really much hassle, and it obviously pays to keep updated.

From an SEO perspective, I have been watching where my links have been coming from and I have noticed that I starting to get some hits from google from my researched keywords even though I havent added any of the SEO componants that re-write the URL. This just goes to show that google is after original content.

I have written a mambot for Joomla that cloaks affiliate links. If you run an affiliate site and dont cloak your links, you should know that you are loosing commission through users changing the link. My link cloaker is simple to install and use on any Joomla site – even if you have a Joomla site with many links, it is very quick and simple to alter the links to cloak them. This software is free, and you can download it from the link on the right.

With apologies to anyone who is actually reading this stuff…. time seems to fly by, and without updates to this site.

I have a few updates in the next few days to let you (the loyal reader) into what I have actually been doing with my time….
