Hi everyone! Hope you all had a great week. Unless I am mistaken, this week was kind of “slow”, primarily due to a series of problems some major sites were experiencing (Amazon’s EC2, Quora, Hootsuite, Reddit, etc.). Despite that, it did not stop anyone from pumping in great content as you will see in a while π
On a side note, I would like to let you know about the guest posting contest that is now happening on Kiesha’s blog, WeBlogBetter. You should know by now that the benefits of participating in such events is a win/win situation for everyone involved and Kiesha’s contest is not going to be an exception, on the contrary. So, needless to say that the best course of action would be to head over there and find out more about this guest posting contest that will rock the sphere.

Hi DiTesco, I didn’t realize the guest post that Andy from CommentLuv did on my blog for updating WordPress manually was tops so well over on WPjunkies. Great to hear that. Thanks for posting another video from Matt Cutts and the rest of the great article links.
Hi Ileane. Andy’s post did make it to the top of the week :), and I hope he continues to post awesome “tutorials” like that one in the future. It helps! Thanks for stopping by
