Not much to report
I did some SEO work last night for Project Petaling Street after the successful takeover (some people who think that I am a “right-wing nutjob” might consider it a kudeta….I don’t care) of the site. From a SEO perspective, PPS has little to no SEO work done for it and hence it does not rank properly for certain important keywords (“blog aggregator”, “blogtal”, “ping blog”) in its niche at all. Frankly, I am amazed at how PPS could survive this long with no SEO work done for it. So I am going to take it upon myself to do some more SEO and hire people to submit the site to web directories, social bookmarking, etc. The idea is to attract traffic and showcase PPS as “the face of the Malaysian blogosphere”, just as the tagline says.
And for those who are wondering what will happen to PPS from this point onwards, the first order of the day is to change that ugly default skin to a more slick look before I even think of the next step. The preview of that template is already available online, do take a look!
