A Real World Case Study Of Website Ranking Systems
Posted on April 15, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging, Technology | 3 Comments
I was all but absent from Philaahzophy for a couple of months for a number of reasons (both personal and professional), but I realized this absence also gave me the perfect opportunity to run the various ranking systems through their paces and see just how effective each of them really is. The four ranking systems I’ll be examining are Google PageRank, Alexa Rank, Technorati Rank, and IZEA’s RealRank.
First, their definitions/descriptions in their own words-
Google PageRank-
PageRank relies on the uniquely democratic…
The Ticket Scalping … er … Reselling Experiment
Posted on January 30, 2008 - Filed Under Earning Offline | Leave a Comment
One of the money making opportunities I’ve been intending to explore for sometime is the controversial world of scalping reselling concert and event tickets. When I was homeless in the 90s one of the ways I’d earn money was to sit on line for ticket resellers in order to help them get around the 4 tickets per person limit for big events. I was sleeping on sidewalks anyway, so why not do so somewhere I was not going to get hassled…
Actual Proof We’re Still Passing PageRank
Posted on January 25, 2008 - Filed Under Blogging | Leave a Comment
It was almost exactly one month ago that I discovered I was still passing PageRank despite being Googlesmacked for writing paid posts. A Google employee was quick to jump into the comments and inform me that I was completely wrong. I had neither the knowledge nor the resources to run a genuine experiment, but luckily Brian Combs of Apogee Search does and he did just that. You can read his results in his blog post: PayPerPost Blog Links Still Impact Google…
Experimenting With Exclusive Articles At Associated Content
Posted on January 14, 2008 - Filed Under Paid To Write | Leave a Comment
I’ve mentioned Associated Content before here at Philaahzophy, though I still need to do a full review on them. They’re a site that pays you to provide articles and I primarily use them as an additional source of revenue from my blog posts. In addition to re-publishing material they offer users the option of submitting exclusive content. I always assumed that exclusive content would receive a larger upfront payment, but never had anything I was willing to write for them without…
Results Of The (Not So) Great Diet Pill Experiment
Posted on January 14, 2008 - Filed Under Aahz, Health Care | 2 Comments
Part of the Relacore Experiment Series - Previous in series
Just over a month ago I wrote about starting a diet pill experiment to test the efficacy of Relacore. As I wrote in the original post-
I’m NOT a fan of pills. Americans are way to dependent on their “medicines” and I’ve been adamantly opposed to taking all drugs (legal and otherwise) most of my life. It’s only been in the last few years that I’ve even been willing to…
The Grand Wiki Experiment
Posted on January 5, 2008 - Filed Under Technology | 3 Comments
It’s no secret that I am very much not a fan of Wikipedia. This has surprised many of my associates who know that I’m an anarchist, but don’t yet truly understand what the term means. They believe that, because I’m an anarchist, and the strongest of free speech proponents (for example, I refuse to have any moderators on the forums that I run, trusting the community to police itself) I should therefore be passionate about the free-wheeling openness of Wikis. The reality…
