Google WiFi - Secure Access Software (Beta)

Google WiFi - Secure Access Software (Beta): "http://wifi.google.com/faq.html
Seems Google are gettign ready to launch Google WiFi! "

I just downloaded Google WiFi and it appears to be working using my existing broadband. I'll have to play with this and see if it works anywhere in NYC.

My Metrics Diary is now www.now-seo.com and www.blog-keywords.com

I decided it was time to get rid of the site that was www.now-seo.com as it no longer reflected me. Last month I purchased a domain called www.blog-keywords.com for which I will eventually develop a site (or another blog) with.

I was puzzled on how my site no longer showed PageRank once the site loaded, but showed PageRank as it was loading; decided it was a coding issue that I did not control and that made me more willing to get rid of the content on marshall.sponder.50megs.com and maybe just start all over with that domain, or just use it for downloads and extra storage, stuff like that.

Looked around for website templates for FrontPage and decided I did not like anything I saw that much. I also looked for blogger templates and did not find as many templates as I would have liked...

Updating My Website

I feel a hypocrite for optimizing websites of my clients while ignoring my own site. It's much easier to work with a site that already exists and has problems than deciding what to do about www.now-seo.com.

For one thing, when I built Now-Seo, I used 50megs.com as a hosting provider, which was a poor choice because it's really shared hosting. At first I triedmasking the actual address and doing a redirect from the hosting provider so only now-seo.com showed up in the address bar; then I realized that might hurt whatever rankings I might get, so I stoped that. As a result, I make no attemt to mask that www.now-seo.com resolves to http://www.marshall.sponder.50megs.com/now-seo/index.html.

I noticed today that my site does not show pagerank in the Google Toolbar. I became upset and looking at the site I've been ignoring, it's looked ugly and sloppy to me all of a sudden.

Soon, I was Googling for "seo website templates" and "seo friendly website templates" or just "website templates". Here I was, fixing multi-million dollar sites for others, but would not lift a finger to fix my own site over the last 30 months or so.

I found a couple of products that look interesting like SEO Website Builder http://www.seo-website-builder.com/ but I wonder if I'd have the patience to work though the templates. I do SEO/SEM.....I don't want to work though a restrictive system, and the site also says that an experienced Webmaster or SEO would not like this product as much because of the restrictions.

But I don't want to come up with the whole design of the site from scratch...and now I'm back to looking at the website project from the point of view of those who build sites and think more about appearance and message than SEO.

Rather than doing anything tonight, I'm going to step back and let the emotions pass and then take an objective look and see what I want am willing to do about it.
