Hi everyone! Hope you all had a great week. This week Google officially announced its new “inactive accounts manager“, a feature that, as they say, is to help you plan for what happens to your account (or accounts) after you’re gone. Not really something that motivating, talking about death, nonetheless it is may be considered by some quite an important issue. Thinking out loud, imagine if you a high earning AdSense account holder? What do you think about this new feature?
Rand of SEOmoz this week walks through user experience and the actions that can be remove from certain processes in order to drive more conversions, earn more links, get more social shares. Simplicity, FTW!
Finally, inform.ly has published an interactve infographic that is totally worth looking at (see link below). It includes excellent traffic tips for content marketers. Good one!
BTW, Matt Cutts recently uploaded a video (end of post) answering to a question that many of you may be interested in knowing. It debunks the myth of being penalized, if your hosting company hosts spam sites. Can you guess what his answer is? Here’s a hint – “typically not”.

If my web host has a lot of spammy clients, will that influence my site’s ranking?
That’s it! Enjoy, have a great weekend!

DiTesco, I had so much fun writing the feature about you on CommentLuv. I’m really blessed to have you as a friend.
I love the White Board Friday video and I agree with the whole concept. This is one reason I don’t like squeeze pages and landing pages that make you scroll way down to past tons and tons of useless content. It really irks me at times….:)
Matt’s YouTube video was not too surprising this time.
No words to express my gratitude on that post Ileane.. simply awesome 🙂
I agree with you on those landing pages.. thing is, they really don’t have to be that looong.. For as long as it is simple, honest and straight to the point, it should work (hopefully)
Ditto on Matt’s video.
