I know my mistakes now and I now know how to succeed online (I will talk more about my actual online successes in future stories, this one is more about what to avoid).

Dofollow or Nothing: Should We Care?
When I started my website, I was crazy about my Google rank. I wanted to be among the top when people searched what was related to my field. I was disappointed in the results. I was on page four. Can you imagine this? After all the struggle. Later I came to discover that I was focusing on the wrong thing thus doing a series of inappropriate activities.
