Interesting posts I’ve read between 30th April and 8th May:

  • Dr. Dobb’s | What Is Drupal? | April 30, 2007 - A very comprehensive introduction to Drupal. Almost a bit too simplistic in scope and content, but a worthwhile overview. (Note to self: play with Drupal more)
  • The Definitive Guide to Semantic Web Markup for Blogs - There’s nothing definitive about this guide at all - it’s all commonsense advice. And also - why does this just apply to blogs? Any website should be applying semantic structure - for accessibility and search engine reasons. SEO is not just for bloggers.
  • How to: Build an Affiliate Site You Can Sell for $1M - My second visit to Andy Hagan’s site looks at building a website of value over a period of a few years and then either selling or keeping. Interesting insight into the process.
  • Top 17 Niche Social Media Sites (That Actually Send Traffic) - Interesting list of alternative social media sites that reputedly bring traffic. Since the rise of Digg and the Pligg platform that allows you to easily create a niche social media site, undoubtedly there will be more of these sites to come.
  • 3 Reasons to Add Articles to your Web Site - If you’re a small business owner, publishing articles about your topic area on your website will help attract visitors to your website. This is an oft-overlooked strategy and something savvy small businesses should be looking into.
