It’s been a few days now since I went to the barber shop to get my monthly cut. While waiting “Inc.” magazine with a Twitter headline caught my eye and since my number one hate is wasting time I decided to have a read.

Initially when I picked the magazine up I was actually thinking it was a tech related magazine but in fact it is designed for the entrepreneur. I was so impressed with my read and the overall material I decided to pay for a subscription which was only $9.97 for twelve issues.

Yes, I know you can read thousands of websites for free on such material but there is just something about picking up a magazine and a cup of coffee and having a great read wherever the place may be at the time.

In January 2008, Google dropped our PageRank from a PR5 to a PR4 for selling links but just today I noticed that we have been given an “authority listing” by Google for JaKel Daily. Is it a huge deal to have Google acknowledge that I’m the authority for information about ‘Ja Kel Daily’? To be honest I’m not sure - but I guess it’s better than not having an authority at all.

Similar to an “indented listing” (see below), an “authority listing” is a site which has received a significant of natural backlinks, total number of daily searches, and high quality linkback “authority” from other high PR sites, over a long period of time. Many of you already know that JKD started with fashion and celebrity blogging in February 2006 then following the Geektalk section in February 2007.

Buy 100,000 premium targeted visitors for the very low price of just $39.95 and increase site profits! Now you would think this sounds great after all it’s at a bargain price, but the sad truth is that the majority of the sites offering this service are complete scams.

Yes, of course they’ll deliver the targeted hits you’ve purchased, but the reality is that the actual traffic either doesn’t exist at all or it’s generated by software to create an illusion of unique visitors that comes from sources like auto surf sites. The truth is that it is near impossible to monitor & evaluate this bargain traffic to know if it’s real or not, and the fact is you have no way of knowing whether it’s targeted or just garbage hits.

As you know from my prior post on January 1st I’ve recently join the dot mobi domain craze nearly a year and half after the initial release to the public. Since there is an estimated 2.2 billion mobile devices in use as of today I think it would be a good idea to get ahead of the game and get your mobile sites into testing and operation before your competition.

I’ve purchased http://www.jakeldaily.mobi and http://www.celebrity-gossip.mobi along with a few others I intend to squat on until I find some motivated buyers. Even now this late in the game there are still a lot of great dot mobi domains left to grab up for long term squatting and selling off when the rest of the tech world catches on and gets into mobi web surfing.

The dot mobi domain era was initially opened 22 May 2006 by Mobile Top Level domain the company put in charge by the Internet Corporation of Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN).

Thousands of domain names were registered within the first day. For some including myself were not apart of this buying frenzy due either not being aware of it, or believed that is was not necessary to adopt a new domain for the mobile internet.

Blogozette.com an idea I came up with some time back by joining the words blogosphere and gazette. A social network blog community gazette.

Blogosphere is a collective term encompassing all blogs and their interconnections. It is the perception that blogs exist together as a connected community (or as a collection of connected communities) or as a social network.

“Gazette“, by extension, has come to be used as the name of mainstream newspapers. The word comes from gazzetta, a Venetian coin used to buy early Italian newspapers; the coin became a name for the papers themselves.

Unfortunately, I never had enough time to go forth with the idea and have sat on the domain for a while now. So today I’ve decided it’s time to sell. Both the logo and domain are for sale now, no content! Make an offer by emailing me at admin@jakeldaily.com. It will go up for auction in two days time on SitePoint.
