Off-page optimization Checklist
May 15, 2008
This relates to the links from other sites coming into the web page in question. For a page to be listed high up in the search engine listings (if you want your page to be Number 1 or at least near the top of the first page of the search engine’s results) you have to be what the search engine judges an “authority” site. This usually means that you have to have other web pages (preferable outside your own site) on similar themes, linking to you. These links are preferably non- reciprocal (one-way only) denoting that the other websites think that this page is important enough to link to it (without necessarily a link back in return).
Offpage optimization basically consists of all of the offpage ranking factors like:
- Which websites link to you
- The number of websites linking to you
- The Google page rank of the website linking to you
- The page title of the website linking to you
- The anchor text used in the link linking to you
- The number and type of links linking to the website that’s linking to you.
- The number of outbound links on the website that is linking to you
- The total number of links on the website that is linking to you
- Whether or not the websites linking to you are deemed by Google as an authority website.

I’ve Learned
May 14, 2008
I’ve learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it may be better tomorrow.
I’ve learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles a rainy day and lost luggage.
I’ve learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when they’re gone from your life.
I’ve learned that making a “living” is not the same thing as making a “life.”
I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance.
I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.
I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision.
I’ve learned that even when I have pains, I don’t have to be one.
I’ve learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone.
People love that human touch – holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back.
I’ve learned that I still have a lot to learn.
Unconditionally loved …
May 13, 2008
I’v
I’ve always wanted to be loved, loved unconditionally, till the end, till I die…!
But now I’ve realized I don’t have the one whom I really love.
I’ve always wanted to make someone feel good, make someone feel loved,
But now I know I have ruined someone’s life and its all because of me.
I’ve always wanted to be the favorite amongst all, tried to
But was hurt by the ones whom were close to my heart.
I’ve always wanted to be the best, but the best were never wanted around,
But now I don’t want to be the best, I did rather believe in having the best.
I’ve have always wanted to touch someone’s heart in a special way,
And was never appreciated for that, But now I don’t want to.
I’m happy that if love didn’t grow in their heart at least it grew in mine. Always wanted that warm shoulder to lean on, & let my tears flow will eternity.
Woke up one night & realized I didn’t have anybody, but now I don’t want anybody cause I am used to crying alone… all alone… and last but not least I want to touch the little blue stars that sparkle in the deep blue sky every night I see them twinkling away into my heart, I want to touch them now and feel them brighten up my life.
Every time I try, I fail but now I don’t want to cause I know, It’s too late..
