Great review of the green earth cookware. It's always great to hear about new products that work. Katie

As an Ipad Owner myself, all I can say is that I fully understand the benefits of having a good quality iPad case. It is a must from day one if you want to protect your device. One of the good things about most of the cases I have come across is that all ports and controls can be accessed even when your ipad is still in its case.

Humagaia = Humanist + Gaia. Humans can solve the problems they have created with a lot of collaborative effort. Gaia can heal the damage humans have created, if humans stop creating the damage.

I have a couple of these added to my pages. Aren't they cool. I even added one to my personal website. Great article.

All excellent points, thanks for writing this. Patience is the key.

Welcome to Wizzley, looking forward to reading your writing.

You've got some great tips here on making photos pinnable! I only recently got a decent camera (iphone pics are not good enough) with which to take photos so it is a steep learning curve for me. I like the idea of using a catchy title or slogan for photos on articles which don't lend themselves to attractive images.

Good article. You might add: Be prepared to reinvent yourself when the search engines decide to reinvent themselves.

Thank you so much Katie. I really appreciate your personal comment too. Sometimes I feel like a broken record talking about ADHD but it is a huge part of my life. It helps to write about it too. My daughter's teacher was the first to bring it up to me too. With my son, I knew from the time he was a baby that things were a little different. You are right... we will stick together girl! Thanks again.

Katie, I did read your "How to add......" and I thought I had. On looking up the page, I have. Do you not see it? Perhaps only those that do not already write here, see it. The ads do come between the recruitment ad and the comments, and it is a smaller format - but it is there.
Back to what you say - thanks for the glowing praise - I do try. By stating the obvious, perhaps the obvious will be implemented, to the benefit of us all. Wizzley has a great base. If we as a community pull together, we can make it the best, as well as great.
Thank you for commenting.

Angel, You know of my personal experiences with ADHD as we've discussed privately, I appreciate your insights and love the way you write on the topic, it's refreshing and gives me much peace. I agree with you I feel I too no doubt have ADHD just haven't been identified or tested. I'll never forget the first time I considered my daughter as being ADHD, I was in conference with her teacher, she made the comment, "I would be concerned with Sarah ADHD if she wasn't so bright, but because she's so bright I'm not concerned about it at this point" The look on my face must have given it away, she then said, "You didn't know"?

Great article rating it up, tweeting, plus and like it! We must stick together.

Katie

Thank you so much for these very useful tips about making the most of pinterest. Why not make your online time count,especially if you are having fun.

Whilst I agree with you, Humagaia, (interesting user name by the way sounds like human+gaia to me ;-)) that having 'some sort of backlinks' is better than having none at all, if these are exclusively from 'low value / unrelated sites' it makes your back link profile looking rather funny in Google's eyes. For example, when I start a new site, the first back links I see appearing are those from the domain registries, website info sites etc. Kind of normal back link background noise ;-) I would never, ever dream to throw a whole lot of low value back links on a new site with only a bit of content on it. Fact is, apart of putting my link up whilst commenting or mentioning my own sites on Web 2.0 articles like here, I have given up on back link building completely. I concentrate on building content / brand / reputation instead, with content being the biggie ;-)
As for the anchor text scenario, no I haven't actually split tested that one. And it would be very difficult to do. Instead I put myself in Google's place and asked myself how would I think a real back link = recommendation looks like and what I would suspect to be a sponsored / paid link?
As for the rest you mentioned, google the term 'negative seo', frightening to say the least!

Thank you for this lovely article. I now have both the pin it and follow me on my blog. I would have never thought of it without your article.
