Site Sift Web Directory
January 7, 2007 on 9:22 pm | In Musing | No CommentsAre you developing or running an information site? If you are, you face a constant requirement to add new content regularly. At the same time, you need to build links to other websites to get a better ranking with the search engines, and to find ways to get visitors coming again and again to your site.
It’s a constant juggling act; one which takes up a lot of time and resources, leaving you with little to spare for other ideas. A possible way out is to include a niche directory to your site.
However, link building is a critical skill that site developers and owners need to master
1) Inbound links to your site are important; even if you provide links to other sites but they don’t reciprocate, your site isn’t considered important by search engines and therefore not indexed.
2) When you submit your website to a web directory, you need to provide a reciprocal link back; rather than creating a hasty links page that doesn’t fit into your website, it makes sense to provide for a suitable option for linking.
3) Special interest directories are considered valuable, precisely because of the ability to collect together urls and pages related to a specific topic. Other webmasters, who wouldn’t think of reciprocating a simple link, are more likely to link back to a directory; they recognise the value in doing so.
If you think it’s difficult to add a directory, or that it adds too much effort, think again. You can get an easy-to-use directory script from Site-Sift. The script itself takes care of all the functions required for creating a niche directory; it has a simple admin panel from which you can manage it. You could ask for reciprocal links to be placed first, before you approve the listing in the directory; or, as some webmasters do, charge a fee for evaluating the site for inclusion. Others provide free basic links but charge for featured links.
Or, try something different; give a featured link to someone who provides you with an article, or new information. If you ensure that all listings pertain to your website’s topic, that will attract people who have an interest in the topic.
The Site Sift Forums provide help to users of the script. You can find suggestions, help and advice from members of the community, who share their time and skill for free.

Tri City Washington Real Estate
January 6, 2007 on 12:02 am | In Musing | No CommentsThe Three Faces of Tri Cities WA
The Tri Cities triumvirate of Pasco, Kennewick, and Richland has a vivid and rich culture as a direct result of their rich and vivid history.
The Tri Cities area lies in the Columbia Basin and is part of a complex ecosystem that includes the Hanford Reach. The Hanford Reach is a stretch of land along the only remaining free 50-mile run of the Columbia River. The place has been a sacred land for so many reasons, and has continued to play a significant role in our country”s collective history.
Tri City Washington ~ Ancient, Hallowed Ground
The land of Tri City WA is ancient ground, having been home to our ancestors some 10,000 years ago. Long before other areas have been settled, Native American residents of ancient Tri Cities have been cultivating crops and making a decent living out of their land.
The Tri Cities is an ideal land for growing crops. In fact, the area in general is one of the few remaining places that have not made use of modern farming tools and technology. The Pasco Wa real estate traditional agricultural methods abide and continue to be productive in this place. As such, the place has no need for modern conveniences that can sometimes desecrate the land.
Indeed, the Native Americans who first settled Tri City area, has found their hallowed ground, and they have kept it as well. Even in today”s modern times, you will feel that mystical, spiritual aura in Pasco, Richland, and Kennewick. In fact, Tri City WA is one of the few remaining places where Native American campsites and villages can still be found, and where the ancient practices and traditions are still being observed. Truly, all that is sacred and meaningful abide in Tri City.
Tri City Washington ~ The Settled Land
When Lewis and Clark first explored the Columbia River, they did not know that they were clearing the path for pioneers to follow suit. The Pioneers of Kennewick Wa real estate, who have been traveling all across the country in search for a place where they can live off the land, put down roots and finally settle down, found one such place in the lands of Pasco, Kennewick, and Richland.
When the Pioneers saw the land of what is now Tri City, there was a flourishing community of Native Americans. With help from the Native Americans, the Pioneers soon knew how to cultivate their own crops and thus were able to flourish themselves. Side by side with the earlier settlers, early Tri City began taking shape into the land that we know today. Those who passed by Tri City found a place to stay.
Tri City Washington ~ The Modern Phase
The third face of Tri City is associated with the realities of modern life. Technology has found its way to this ancient land, and has left its mark as well. The Richland Wa real estate Hanford Reservation made modern history as part of the Manhattan Project. It is actually in this place where the first nuclear bomb was made.
While the history of Hanford Reach may have been tainted by the World War and the subsequent nuclear age, it is a testament to the resiliency of the land that it has remained habitable and has even flourished in spite of this. In fact, the nuclear phase may have been a necessary element to Tri City and the Columbia Basin”s growth. It is a rite of passage that is important as Tri City continues to redefine itself and find its place in our ever changing world.
Such are the three faces of Tri City; very different, yet all the same. Indeed, this Tri City will resolutely withstand the changes that ceaselessly assail it. In the face of uncertainties, this land will always abide.

WishfulRanking.com
January 2, 2007 on 11:53 pm | In Musing | No CommentsWhen you look at WishfulRanking.com nothing strikes as something out of the ordinary. It looks similar to other web directories on the web but it”s really not.
Other web directories offer several fixed price options; WishfulRanking.com allows webmaster to pay any price they want for the submissions starting at $1.25. The more a webmaster pays the higher his or her site is closer to the top of a particular category.
Each listing in the directory has a click counter to show the value of each submitted website. The more clicks the listing receives the higher ROI for its owner.
Should someone outbid and move a webmaster”s listing down, it”s possible to pay the difference and move the site up to any position the webmaster wants.
Another nice touch the directory offers is that very few clicks are required to submit and fill out forms. All the information is checked immediately, with Web 2.0 making it possible.
Who knows, maybe this will start a new trend in the world of web directories, and a new concept, Bid Per Listing, will be introduced.

Reality Check for IT Training
January 2, 2007 on 12:34 am | In Musing | No CommentsAfter a few years in IT industry, most software developers or systems engineers wish they could go back to school and have some un-interrupted time to re-charge their brains. Precisely, they want to go back to a different school to learn new subjects, or the same subjects are taught in a way that is more close to the IT practice. Of course, this will never happen. The curriculums of higher education aren”t going to be designed to chase the fads of IT industry, and doing so won”t help professors” career either. The closest thing to what IT professionals want is training boot camp, an off-site setting where software developers or system engineers will learn new technology or revisit what you”ve learned on the job without worrying about to beat the project deadlines one after another.
IT boot camps are closely related to IT certifications. For instance, a Microsoft training boot camp is for those who want to pass Microsoft certifications. Companies don”t encourage their IT staff to pass any IT certifications as long they think they can get their job done. IT consulting firms are an exception for this. Consulting companies won”t even hire you if you don”t have certain IT certifications. If a IT degree shows you”ve mastered the principles of information technology, a IT certification demonstrates that you actually know how to apply the principles in the real world, or you can get things done without knowing any principles.
Most IT boot camps or training programs are for computer hardware - CCNP boot camp, or MCSA boot camp. Subjects related to computer software don”t work that well, on the other hand. For hardware, there”s often a clear step-by-step procedures to do the configuration or trouble shooting. For software, developers have their styles of writing code. The syntax part can be easily self-taught from book. Wordpress.org went even far to say “Code is Poetry”.
