Dry humour, sarcasm and sharp observation with more than a hint of barely concealed frustration at the way the whole system works.
Good stuff !!! :T

Yes, backlinks, but they need to be drip fed over a period of time else Google will make an assumption that he's paid for links - and they're against those.
Tagging/keywording needs further development, he was passed the google adwords keyword tool earlier this evening.
Right now, the first objective is to make more postings, then we hit the next batch of link drops to raise the profile.
So far today we've touched on: copyright, hot linking, using divs for image placement, tags, keywords, value of keywords, linking, trends/timing of postings and twitter.
That's enough for one day of PMs. Poor bloke shot off to bed a bit early tonight ...
Yes, PN has been promoted to Sales and Marketing Director of the RTB Blog!
She's a very clever girl indeed, although sadly most of her techy advice might as well be written in Russian for all the sense it makes to a dunderhead like me. :rolleyes:
But rest assured we're working on it.

Do you know, that is actually very good....written in a style that is very attractive to me (plenty of sarcasm, I am a master of sarcasm) but with enough 'normal' stuff to keep it grounded.
Well done Max...and well done PN in your advice to him.We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

I agree with Sue, you got my vote too Max and PN. I really liked the pictures, summed up the message well.I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.0 -

Honestly, they're blimmin brilliant!
Come out of Sainsburys with just a couple of carrier bags and instead of putting them on the boot floor as normal and getting home to find they've rolled across the floor spilling all their contents, you just hang them by their handles on the hooks which are mounted high up and then they're still there and of course upright when you get home.
Very simple but flippin clever. :cool:Hi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0 -
Max, I need to know what the car is now, just to get one with hooks. Brilliant blog...Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.
