"Buying websites and fixing them up can’t be considered search spam, in my opinion. Otherwise Google would be penalizing itself for mixing YouTube pages at the top of their search results after they purchased the web site."Interesting observation by Aaron Wall. Doesn’t Google typically cast an ugly eye towards this type of practice?

Hmmm, video.  We were actually pondering making a silly video about one of our products for our customers.  Might need to think that out a bit more and combine that with our other efforts.-OT

I like the idea on article submission. If its a good content, not only you will get high traffic but its a good method for branding your expertise, product or services. I don’t really agree with buying old/expired domains though.

Isn’t content king?Google doesn’t read flash very well -- and certainly not youtube videos, but they still seem to rank well. (random ponderings)
