Black Hat and Social Networks

Social Networking

Jesse Stay posted on Guy Kawasaki’s blog entitled 10 Things You Didn’t Know About Facebook. I was surprised to find out how much I didn’t know about one of the biggest social networking sites out there. I certainly made sure to import my RSS feed to my Facebook.com account. I don’t know that will make my headlines fall under duplicate content, but as far as I’m concerned you can never propagate your post titles too much.

WordPress Security

Thanks to a great tip entitled “Turn Off Directory Browsing to Protect Your Content” posted by Gobala Krishnan, my content is a little bit safer (not that anybody is interested in stealing it) today. I had always assumed that Directory Browsing was disabled by default, and found out how wrong I was today.

Black Hat

SEO Black Hat tipped me off to the article “Messing With Digg” from David Naylor. If you’re using the Digg angle in your marketing efforts, these tricks might come in handy.
