SEO Bible by Jerri L. Ledford
(ISBN: 978-0-470-17500-2) As usual I have not purchased this book, I have, however, borrowed it from the Ottawa Public Library.

Using Alexa To Clean up
I have been trying to find a smart way to clean up my old blog on blog spot Canadian Financial Rants, but I finally bit the bullet and deleted it and then recreated it. That purged all of the entries on the site, and now it has a single entry telling whoever trips over the [...]
