Elvis Blogs - Elvis McNeely

Over the past year some online services have popped up offereing busienss owners the ability to spy on their competitors. Spying as in knowing what organic keywords their competitors are ranking for as well as any paid advertisments and those related keywords being used.

I am happy to report that my server came in today, all 105lbs of it! I couldn't believe that thing weighed so much. In case anyone is interested in the specs of it:

Dell PE 6650 - 2x3.0/4M 4G-8 P3DC 1x73G(10K) 2x146G(10K)

If I wanted I could add two more cores, two more drives, and 28 more gigbyte of ram.

I'm excited to know that my blogging website now has a page rank of four. It only took about 1.5 years!!!

Some months back I decided it would be good business to provide services to local small businesses here in my hometown (Lafayette / West Lafayette).

Yes, it is true. I was approached the other day from a young man who was selling leaves.

Tonight I was watching a show called Flip this house, or something like that. Basically, people buy houses cheap, fix them up within 4-6 weeks, then resell them within 2-4 weeks. In the end they make a very decent profit.

Well, I am hopefully about done with the current project. I am not sure if I can announce it quite yet since it is not my website, once it goes live I will give an update with a link to the site.

A delay has come up in launching iPhone Gear. A friend is working for a client whose developers skipped town on him. Well, I shouldn't say skipped, but something happened to their commitment.

iPhone Gear is almost most done. I am so eager to finish this that I can taste it.

This is just a quick update for the website iPhone Gear, is 90% of the way finished. This website, in my opinion, has a good combination of community features and shopping options. My plan is to allow the community to help others to know about products, what works well, how to use certain products etc. so far the video, galleries, iphone widgets, and forums have been completed. I have not done the update to the live server yet but on my laptop these things have been done. I am considering of changing the theme/design but I will make those changes if the community indicates that should be done. I'll also began looking on hiring a few content moderators/builders. I might as well offer callout while mentioning this. The job won't offer enough pay to quit your day job but in return you will get to participate in building a great website, receive some form of salary and possibly win free iphone accessories.
