You heard me. I’m having a damn hard time even trying to index a site with Website Baker 2.7.

I actually installed the CMS on to the server at the very beginning of the summer (maybe April-ish) with the site content organized and about 80% written up to be posted that very day. I customized the template and added the finishing touches from then til now and I can say its finally complete with some content, a gallery, sitemap, and contact form -very basic stuff.
But!
The damn thing hasn’t been indexed yet! This is actually my first real attempt at using Website Baker as a CMS and after adding in content week after week to finish up the site, not seeing it index at all is pissing me off!

Or something like that.

I started looking into WP about the same time last year. At that time I was getting into Website Baker and Joomla! and I thought I’d give WP as a CMS a try as well. I signed up for a WordPress.com account and even manually installed it on one of my domains just to go through the motions.

But that’s typical of me, getting ahead of myself and then becoming frustrated when things don’t happen fast enough.
So I left WP alone for a long while. I did make the arbitrary posts here and there, mainly as an attempt to motivate myself. That never really worked -until now, I suppose. Read the rest of this entry »

I work in the Internet Marketing industry. You know, SEO, SERPS, PR, SEM, PPC, analytics, and all that jazz. So I can say confidently that I know more about such topics than most people. Most people that don’t have to stare at this shit and think about lead and demand generation everyday, I mean.
Outside of work, I am just a tiny operation here my room, with my junky old computer. I know I haven’t devoted nearly as much time as I’d like to this blog or the other website projects for that matter. But I still have this, all mine, my precious, this blog: the “Clever Bytch.” And that’s bitch with a “y,” my little realm in teh internets, my muse.
In creating the blog, I had thought, “Ah ha! I shall monopolize on the word ‘bytch’ and I shall rule the world!”
