Does Googlebot Hump Your Websites Too?
June 13, 2005
Yea, that’s right. I just noticed Googlebot is humping another one of my sites. The real traffic has accounted for just over 200 MB of data transfer this month so far. Googlebot, on the other hand, accounts for over 550 MB. I really don’t understand why, the site is www.ncexchange.org and I haven’t even added a new article to it in ages. Got to say, though, I’d rather have the Googlebot humping my sites than ignoring them.
Do you understand the difference between outsourcing and offshoring?
June 9, 2005
Everybody outsources. If you eat food that you didn’t grow yourself, you outsourced. Seriously, people need to get an understanding of what the word means. Take your clothes to the dry cleaners, it’s outsourcing. Need some legal work done? You hire the law firm down the street to do it instead of becoming a lawyer yourself, it’s outsourcing. If you’re talking about a business doing outsourcing, same idea. Does your web design firm use a hosting company to host the website? Woops, you’ve outsourced that! When you have a pizza party, do you make your own dough? No? You got it, you outsourced. Outsourcing isn’t the same thing as “offshoring”, okay?

I thought it significant to note the passing of one of the pioneers of internet marketing. Mr. Rudl died in an auto accident yesterday, in California. May he rest in peace.
