looking for advice on getting website noticed
Been over a year since I moved this website from my old dial up isp to
Comcast: http://home.comcast.net/~frank.logullo/Msds.html I had been with dialup isp for over 10 years and was getting maybe 2 inquiries/month for my part time consulting service. Now with Comcast, I just did not get noticed or picked up by browsers. I think I've added only one new client in past year. I inquired Comcast ng group at time and someone suggested I get a site at 1&1 and I have done this: http://www.logullo.biz/Msds.html It's been less than a week and I submitted to Google and other free listers but not showing up on searches yet. I'm open to any advice from group. I'm retired and not looking for a ton or business but want to maintain or improve bit I have to keep professionally active. On the GW side, I noticed Best Buy is selling e machines but no GW's. Is our favorite computer maker now defunct? I remember the sale and bankruptcy. Frank |

I'm listed in other places like Linked In and my name pops up right away. Same with two groups I quit consulting for over a year ago. logullo.biz so far gets no hits. |

It appears my main problem was editing over the years from original HTML through gui with MS Word, Netscape, Open office etc. which all added crap to documents ballooning them to 10X what they needed to be and search engines were rejecting them. One respondent even took my main site and stripped it of all the useless HTML. Now I've got these sites cleaned up and hope they will get picked up. Frank |

Frank Hi Frank, I am in a simular situation with a full time job, but still looking for a little better outside money. If you have the patients you can also do a daily scan on the likes of Craig's List and such. A ;lot of crap ads, but there are the occasional gems. I picked up a position as the local tech for an out of state company @ $75.00 per hr. I only work 3 to 5 hours a month for them, but along with my regular gig an a dozen or so other side jobs I get by. If variety it is the spice of life, this arraignment is some where between salsa and curry. KMC |

I'm not hurting and consulting work I have is pretty consistent at 2-4 days/month but most of it comes from one client who is solid now but who knows what the future may be. I was just hoping to get more inquiries from my internet websites. Now I think it was the new MS Word and Open Office editing that added boat anchor html to them keeping them out of the search engines. Using NVU or now KompoZer gives clean websites. Now I'm waiting to see if the search engines pick them up. If not, I'll blame my lose of grandfather status, i.e. my old sites were put out 15 years ago when the internet was in it's infancy compared to today. |
