Why the SEO industry needs to chill out a bit..
So many serious people… so many SEO practitioners, so many SEO gurus… so many SEO companies calling me asking me: “How do we know if you are a real SEO professional”.
The answer is: You don’t!
May be instead let’s presume … there are no SEO practitioners… there are no SEO gurus… there are no SEO professionals….
Skills to become a good link builder
We all know that about 90% of SEO is link building. The on-site stuff is just too easy to master, especially with all of the WordPress plugins and SEO guides out there these days.
What really separates the movers and shakers from the haters is link building. If you know how to build high quality backlinks that Google loves, your site is going to take off like a bat out of hell.
Understanding Link Bait Content
If you’re working in SEO, I highly recommend you learn how to create link bait content. Whether this is for yourself or for your clients, this is a great way to get tons of extra backlinks and traffic to your site.
….so what is link bait content?
It’s basically an article, blog post, video, etc. that is going to attract a lot of attention.
So I decided to give up with SEO…
For 1 week… yes. For 1 week I just decided not to check ranking, not to do backlink reports, not to look at what my customers competition was doing, not to read what SEO gurus was doing… in fact I just decided to do one thing: Unplug myself.
No internet.
Bye bye SEO. I’m quitting…. I’m leaving you…
Melbourne, SEO and Rock and Roll Rabbits
Before I start let me clarify that I’m NOT DRUNK at this exact moment… so bare with me in this random, weird and strange post.
Today I’m in Melbourne… the cultural capital of Australia. Lovely city, a bit cold, a bit weird, a bit to busy for me.
It’s a weird, I have been away from home for less than 2 days and I already miss my 2 young ratbags, my home office, my wife and my dog. (pretty sad huh?)

Who is Gabriel Machuret
This new financial year I have decided to play a bit more in the arena of online reputation management… and to be sure I prevent my reputation to be ruined by “villains” I decided to talk about the most boring topic in the world:
So before starting…. here is my new amazing… video about : Me!!!
SEO Consultant doing Stupid things
When google updated the Page rank a few days ago noticed a few changes… but one of the most funny changes came from SEOconsultant.com.au a site that clearly with such a huge page rank had a difficulty covering it’s tracks/links….
You see , I noticed a Page Rank 7 in the site in mention and I said to myself…
Getting banned from Google
Seriously. Can I?
how difficult is to get a website banned from Google? How easy is it?
Can I get your website banned? or …
Can a group of Indian link builders working for peanuts can screw your site?
When you need to be a big boy SEO wise
So what happens when you are really trying to compete in an industry where Money Talks
Forget affiliate marketing, forget adsense, forget tiny mini sites… let’s talk about REAL money… let’s talk about markets where the competitors are in FACT companies with HUGE budgets willing to do anything to get that ranking.
SEO for Kids it’s up and running
I’m so proud.. and so happy….so I will keep this ultra-ultra short.
I have worked a bit hard to get this idea running… but after taking the decision I now know it’s a fantastic idea and I’m sure I will achieve my objective.
Well here it is:
Before you hire an Australian SEO company
Last week I welcome to my SEO program 5 new clients… 5 new clients that told me in a few words: We are sick of SEO companies in Australia.
I find this sad, funny and ironic. Many of these SEO companies are in some sort of way (in theory) , good companies, but it seems they keep failing in the same points: They forget about their customers, they forget about doing things RIGHT, being FAIR with the prices they charge and COMMUNICATE with their customers about the progress of their SEO.
Robert Steers: My first SEO Fan
There is someone called Robert Steers, I don’t know him, but I know a bit ABOUT him,
Robert Steers owns a company (ANOTHER MARKETING COMPANY) Called Creative Development and clearly in the last few months he has been trying to jump in the SEO wagon. But instead of creating something cool, something fresh, something unique… he decided to use others’s peoples terms to attract some tiny traffic. In this case, we used one of my sites name…
SEO Software: Bookmarking Demon
So I get a lot of emails, each day asking me about SEO software… what SEO software should I buy Gabriel? My answer usually is the same:
Don’t buy any SEO software until you are 100% sure you know about SEO… and until you have money to spend.
but in case you really want to know…
Brave SEO experts until you confrot them.
They are all Super-Jedis… unique Ranking Masters… in fact any SEO consultant seems to be a mix of MacGyver + Mr T with a bit of Xmen.. seriously.
Don’t you know it already?
SEO professionals are b*d ass warriors, and Google masters of the universe, real Ninjas with unique powers.. until…
mmm wait…
Bring the Good Aussie SEO Professionals
No.. I’m not the only one, and I’m not the best… BUT for sure I’m the ONE with the worst spelling and grammar in the whole SEO industry.
But here we have ladies and gent the true blood , the people that in fact know what they are talking… the guys that I consider REAL and not just a bunch of monkeys scamming and ripping small businesses in Australia. (at least the ones I know about)
