Purple flavor

For "practical" reasons, most people tend to stick to black or earthtone-colored coats for winter. Yeah, yeah, makes sense. Sitting on the subway though, sometimes I wish I didn't blend in so much in the winter. Up pop those thought bubbles...the techno precision of Raf Simons combined with a tasty grape purple would sure look nice against all this snow. And cozy? Look at it, it SCREAMS cozy, even if you get stared at a whole lot more (at least Barney & friends will be on your side).

I will ask Google...

What real way for improvement of the position in Google SERP?
Many believe, what exactly Google PR helps to rise above in Search Engine Results Page (SERP) while PR actually is only one of the factors considered by the great searcher.

Google loves the authoritative sites.
If your site enjoys authority in the niche such site also will be authoritative and for Google.
The searcher considers all elements of a site, and then states it an estimation on a scale from «very authoritative» to «unauthoritative». For example, if you search "Seo in Toronto" at the top of charts there will be only the most authoritative sites about Search Optimization in region Toronto. Thus, the search result is influenced by region, web hosting location, and inquiry language.
Google Authority is influenced by many factors, including the domain zone (for example, trend.gov have a more trust than trend.info), quantity and quality of links, traffic level.

The mythical white list of Mr. Google.
Probably, here the one who refer to you is the most important for entering into the top of SERP. It's considered that at Google there is «white list» which includes websites which are enjoying confidence.
Thanks to trust, some websites manage to take the first positions of competitive keyword's searches at the expense of creation of the page aimed at the necessary keyword. But, according to research of one authoritative SEO expert, such sites as NYTimes.com or CNN.com don't worry about creation of additional links for own pages because Google trusts them, thus they without any work receive the first places in the Top Ten.

Blingers

I've wanted a nameplate necklace for a really long time, and it has nothing to do with a certain Carrie Bradshaw. In fact I didn't even want my name, in part because there's too many jerkfaces in the sea of millions here that would abuse that. I guess I wanted something more, er, "clever"? I forget where I saw it, probably some recent editorial, but the model had a nameplate necklace that said "Nobody." That was my AHA moment, so as soon as I had the chance, I headed down to Chinatown, and ordered up "Somebody." I'm kind of a smartass so it suits me well!

While i'm on this topic of shiny bold lady jewelry, I've been coming across some pretty sweet big earrings lately. I'm usually more of a tiny stud person myself (I have these silver cubes that have not left my ears), but look at these hoops...nothing but net!




Mouth hoop earrings, Aurélie Bidermann; Perspex phone earrings, Holly Fulton

Then there's this amazing piece from Ann-Sofie Back I spotted at Daily Projects that I don't remember seeing in her Fall collection. I don't even understand how this stays on your ear but it's totally badass! Instant sci-fi elf status.

Rally for Rowley

Attention New Yorkers (well, fans of Cythia Rowley's colorful, urban, sporty vibes anyway)! She's having a sample sale this week starting Thursday promising 80% clothes and accessories, so you might want in on this action. I just revisited Rowley's Fall 10 collection, which should pop up at the sale, and there's some pretty amazing pieces. Seeing as the end of winter is nowhere in sight, maybe you could still make good use of a sweater or puffy coat.

Still an animal

Here's your January dose of Japanese crazy, this time from Tokyo-bred label BANZAI. A giant stuffed tiger got it on with a jacket...while a matador watched. I like that the tiger looks to be a backpack at first glance, but is really attached to your back. Interested? The jacket is only available at Ilil in Tokyo right now, but its designer, Yoruko Banzai, promises he is "roaring towards large projects" in the near future so watch this man's blog!

Hot mess

Sex sells- that's a no-brainer. Somehow it still has enough shock appeal to stir things up stateside, but for Argentinian label A.Y. Not Dead, it gets the job done...especially with the help of a certain blonde named Dree Hemingway. Moving past the bonerific campaign images, A.Y. Not Dead's Summer '11 range offers a saucy mix of revealing cuts and radical prints...equally effective under a strobe light or the daylight. I have my eye on quite a few pieces, and I'm stoked to recently discover the label is stocked at Asos. You better believe if I ever find myself in Buenos Aires though, I'll be paying one or more of their six stores down there a visit!

Boom

Well look at this, Fendi just stole my heart...

It didn't hurt

A lot of us have several more holes in us then we were born with- I'm talking about the holes with metal shoved through them! The starting point of Ann-Sofie Back's Spring '11 collection was pornography and manipulation of the body. This translated down to the accessories which included a ring and necklace that look like long metal rods poking through the neck and finger.



The necklace is kind of chanelling Frankenstein eh??





How dope is the ring!!!?? I'm definitely stalking this one...

Fur sure dude

Oh yeah, pre-fall yeah! Look at some of the goods Phoebe Philo came up with for Celine. Call it Girls Gone Mod if you will. My faves were about the fur and the shine- that green iridescent PVC coat is bananas! And yeah...LV did foxtails, so what? Phoebe put them on a tiny flat clutch and I dig the play on proportions. If I could reach through the screen and feel that animal hide-looking top, I would.

Wordpress search engine optimisation starts with using the right plugins

One of the nicest features of Wordpress web pages are the many plugins available to help with Search Engine Optimisation. These plugins allow you to easily customize URLs, titles, and descriptions. This can be a great help in avoiding duplicate content or simply matching titles to addresses for relevence.

However these plugins should be used carefully, for one can very easily over-optimise and incur an SEO penalty.
A good rule of thumb when using Wordpress to create pages is to limit the exposure of the main keyterm you are optimising for to just one occurrence to approximately every 150 words of other content. Bear in mind that overall keyword density must also be checked. If your keyword phrase is "Cheap Office Furniture" and you use the word Cheap 800 times, you will likely disqualify the whole page from ranking.

In fact you will find that page ranking in reverse, meaning it will rank for ridiculous long tail keywords of little or no value. Google has a tendency to default to the remaining words after the keyword stuffed words are filtered from the page's relevance.
When putting together SEO planned pages on Wordpress sites we must watch out for accidental redundant use of our keyterms in titles, category listings, recent posts etc. Another place to watch is in picture titles and internal links, as all of these represent places where one can easily repeat the same words over and over. Use the highlight function built into your web browser to locate all of the uses of your keyterm words both separately and combined.

Thankfully I'm not sick, but I gotta do a better job of not letting heat escape through my head. Supreme has a lot of dope beanies this season...and for the frozen non-wallflowers, may I suggest this ski mask?

SEO for Professionals

Search optimisation or SEO (Search Engine Optimization) are purposeful actions for the purpose of a «site raising» into the TOP of Search Engine Results Pages (SERP). According to statistics, transitions to a website are carried out basically from main searchers (Google, Yahoo!, Bing).

The Main SEO Principles

When the search engine will give to you a sites list from your keyword, you will start to search for a suitable resource from top to down, since the 1st page. Frequently, only the first 5 links is actually (or necessary) for you. You will not get on the 100-th search page, thus, all resources which will be of a low position in SERP, remain without your attention.

To raise a site rating in the searcher, carry out work on optimisation of your web pages. Work happens internal and external. External work is an advertising of a site on other web resources. It's possible, so to say, simply to buy a adv place on some websites and to start up on them your anchor links.

It's possible to make a bit more artfully: to agree with other owner of a relevant website and to exchange links, and it's not obligatory to do it as advertising. Usual advertising — irritates some users, therefore to a typical contextual advertising of attention usually addresses — little, very little. My recommendation to exchange so: «Dudes, this resource is simply ingenious, I never created more helpful information on SEO!» — thus, the similar words for people much more positively and trustfully.

Search engines cannot define, whether your site is necessary to people or has been created only for the purpose of earnings and does not contain the helpful information.

SEO Advices from Google Experts

Best webhosting hub:

Last month, we all went for a Europe Tour during summer vacations. After spending one month in Europe, we came back to our country. I wanted to share my experience by starting a travel blog, so that it would be helpful to all my friends when they plan to visit Europe in their holidays. Now my main problem was how to start a blog. I had no previous experience and had no idea as to where to start from.

I started looking for a good and reliable webhosting provider whom I could trust. My friend suggested a site called webhostinghub.com. My friend had used their services and was fully satisfied with their services. When I visited the site, I was attracted and convinced with their prices and services they offered.

The site was user friendly and easy to access. They offered me with unlimited disk space and bandwidth with unlimited websites at lowest prices when compared to other webhosting companies. They also offered me to provide a free domain name and easy web site building tool. They even provided spam protection to my site. Their services were available 24 x 7 and they promised to return the full money within 90 days if we were not satisfied with their services.

After going through their website thoroughly, I opted their services. Now I am using their services for my blog and I am happy about my decision.

Most wanted

So here's two of my most wanted shoes for spring. I've had a crush on the United Nude block pump since first laying my eyes on them. They are architecturally sexy and definitely look dope with shorts. I'm glad I've held out, because I like this latest version with the wood heel the best. Then there's these cut-out oxfords from Minimarket that showed up in Solestruck's Spring '11 lookbook- they remind me of puzzles!

We all have our "style icons" out there, some of whom we may stalk on the daily...don't lie, you read Fuck Yeah Mary-Kate Ashley too. On the opposite end of the spectrum is a familiar face on the Tokyo scene, Mademoiselle Yulia, who I have been following for the past few years because, well, she rules at life. The girl is a DJ, singer, and designs an accessory label called GIZA that blows me away. Yulia OWNS her style...it's hard to sum it up, but she's big into Jeremy Scott, short shorts and blue hair. If you look at any recent pictures of her, she can probably be seen sporting the collection she recently collaborated with LA-based Joyrich on, which is due out real soon. Joyrich x Giza is the perfect marriage: it's got classic pieces like tanks, shorts, and motorcycle jackets, all decked out in prints like dinosaurs and wrenches. I mean!!??











In November, a club in Taiwan played host to a party celebrating the collaboration. Of course Yulia was behind the decks! She even arrived in a Lambo.. now that's the life.
