This is the blog of Get Visible. We help website owners achieve their goals as well as test our strategies out on our own affiliate sites. We put our money where our mouth is before we recommend strategies for our clients. If it doesn't work for us, we won't risk it for you.
Just take a look at the most popular posts on the right-hand-side or use the search at the top if you're looking for something in particular
How could I forget about this method of working out what to write about. If your site has a search, and with most affiliates now using WordPress then this is a great one for them. Simply turn on the “site search” option in Google Analytics – find out here. Then, when its been running a [...]
As affiliates and website owners we all struggle at some stage or another to come up with ideas for content that we hope will catch the attention of the t’interweb and drive sales and/or links. So here’s a quick few: Backtweets – whack in your competitors’ domains and see what content of theirs people are [...]
Well sort of. I’ve been a busy bee and neglected you guys here. It was good for me though! Most affiliates could fill up their day with three or four times what they actually manage to do. With me, I’ve got my SEO consultancy work to do too. I’ve had my nose to the grindstone [...]
Just a quick post to say thanks to Zak at Prezzy Box for the goodies I received today!! Zak was in a bit of an SEO interregnum and all I did was make some comments about how to improve their SEO. My view is that “friends in need are friends indeed”. Some friends you’d bend [...]
Don’t you bloody hate it when you send someone an email but forget to send the attachment? I’ve done it countless times and its a pain in the arse when its a proposal. Thankfully when I did it today Google stepped in: Yep, I put some words in the email, which they scanned and then [...]

… let’s hope they don’t drown. Over recent years I’ve come to believe that 95% of what self-proclaimed “guru’s” say is utter bullshit. They try obtain sycophants like Panini football stickers with the aim in having sufficient idolisers for adequately attended circle-jerks on request. I couldn’t care less how many ‘friends’ I have on Facebook, [...]
