Why I am writing So less ?
This is my first post in last 10 days and I felt to write it to tell current subscribers and readers why I am writing so less on the blog.
The reason is, this blog was started as a blog which can share my SEO knowledge with others as well as to establish nBridges Media as a SEO Brand. Now I did got decent success in both but the growth was very slow and because I wasn’t making any money from this blog, it don’t make any sense to spend hours writing content for it. I can ofcourse spend more effort into the site now and make it a premium SEO blog as I have already done the hard work but I feels somehow it don’t align with what I am doing currently and planning to do next in coming 6 months.

How fast is Fast while adding content to websites ?
I think I had covered this point last year but felt to write a full post on this.
This question is often asked by ecommerce store owners that how fast is “fast” while adding content to their websites so it don’t trigger google filters or the site don’t get penalized. Personally I have never seen any site getting penalized (atleast a genuine site) because of fast content addition but have heard people saying that the number of pages should not exceed the current existing indexed pages. This theory has loopholes, if you think about it for a moment and probably is not correct but it can give you good measure of how fast you should add content.
How to remove your Content from Google’s Index Immediately
In case you have heavy duplicate content indexed in google or google has indexed that content which wsn’t meant to be public, you can remove that content by filing for Urgent removal request with Google webmaster Tools.

We try to complete this process in 3-5 business days, though large-scale URL removal requests will take longer.

Return of Manual link Exchange ?
I was thinking about this for some time now that manual link exchange which is considered to be dead in the last 2 years is again making roads and coming back as one of the best ways of link building ? The reason being, with google crack down on all automated link exchanges and when services like TLA and payperpost being too costly and risky to use, I won’t be surprised if people go back to dawning board for their link building campaigns and have again started using IBP and outsourcing link exchange requests work to India, specially business which are not that much “into” SEO and link building.

Hi guys, in the past week I have only updated this blog once, so apologies for that. Its just that I am not able to get time for writing as I got stuck with lot of other work.
