Create Infinite Page Duplication: Use URL Session IDs
There is no better way to create an infinite amount of duplicate content on your site than to force session IDs onto each visitor. Typically, session IDs are used for tracking a single visitor’s navigation path through the site, including the adding or removing products from the shopping cart. They are great for tracking purposes, but really, really bad for search engines and inbound linking.
Ok, first of all, that’s a bad URL shown above, but aside from that, tacked on at the end there is the session ID. Both URLs pull the same page pulled open via a different browsing session. The bad stuff happens if the session IDs also get attached when the search engines come for a visit.

Small Business Marketing Unleashed: Day Two Wrap up
I am a day behind on getting this out for the day 2 of Small Business Marketing: Unleashed, but better late than never.
Day 2: Workshops
The day was kicked off with a presentation by one of the sponsors ideablob.com, and then we were released to go to workshops. (Sage Lewis, of SageRock.com tends to refer to each session / workshop as a class, which truly describes what the conference was like.) There were three time blocks with four workshops running in each block – Each block running an hour and a half. With that amount of time, we really were given in depth lessons on each topic. The hot topics were repeated, so you didn’t miss out on anything.
My schedule:
Keywords and Content presented by Heather Lloyd-Martin of SuccessWorks Search Marketing
Building a Community presented by Sage Lewis of Sage Rock
Link Building presented by Debra O’Neil-Mastaler of Alliance Link

The World’s Absolute Best Link Building Technique
Rand Fishkin of SEOmoz asked his readers to present their three best link building techniques. Instead of posting mine in the comments of his blog I thought I’d post mine here for the benefit of all my readers:
- Steal an idea from someone else
- Create a contest out of it
- Hoard the incoming links by not linking to your source of inspiration
Yep, that should do the trick.
