You bet Joseph - be sure to keep us updated on how it`s going, it`s always useful to be able to track the progress of others once they`ve made changes.  Good luck!

The content is not the same.
It`s a completely retooled site. Thus, this problem.
Same domain ... new site.

I just got a write up on diochra.com!  Ok if you aren`t into Irish Dance you wouldn`t know what Diochra is.  Her iste is only the difiniative iste for information on Irish Dance.

I am really excited about this listing.

I had a great offline conversation with TJ Graff from GoTrucksStop.com this morning. 

He had some great ideas for getting the traffic going, cross listing with other folks, doing banner ads for Irish Dance Schols, etc... Some really great stuff. 

He also had some great ideas about reconfiguration of my website to make it more customer/sales oriented.  I have updated it today and will continue to update as we go forward. 

One of the suggestions was to beef up my descriptions of products. I have known I need to do this I just haven`t had the time. But this nudge makes me want to do it all the more. 

Thanks TJ I really apprecite the call.

Peace

Yes TJ is pretty giving of his knowledge to those willing to listen. He was the only person who responded to my post Presenting back links, although 109 people have viewed it. Maybe my questions about how I was trying to accomplish this was too confusing. Nevertheless, thanks TJ.

Cross linking only solves a portion of your indexing.
There are other things you have to take into consideration.
As much as TJ (a good friend of mine) can push you towards, cross linking how much of it can you do? 10 web sites? 50 per say.

"Im going to brag a little bit" I started using Adwords for one of my customers. he subscribed to Adwords on January 20th, under 10 days, I made his impressions go from an unknown web site to 800,121. Not to mention most of his clientele is coming from myspace.com.. and he`s only spending $20.00 a day. He is currently closing 118 debt consolidation deals a week.

If you see his conversion rate it`s at about 92.32%, the last time I checked.
So, even though he has some colaboration cross linking, he`s only getting about 2 to 3 deals a week off of it..

Did any of your pages previously have decent page rankings? There`s a certain strategy to preserving page rankings when you`re retooling your site, utilizing sitemaps and the right kind of redirects (a 301 permanent) that Google understands and likes, plus it makes sure content isn`t duplicated among new and old pages, leading to negative page ranking outcomes...
