I recently had the opportunity to Fix the Grader and PageRank Tool: are working... Great! - Big surprise - I also discovered that PageRank has Returned! I mean, many Google's Developer and Experts said in past months (if not years) to avoid paying too much importance to PageRank. Now, why they say something like "PageRanks is not important" and then in less of 4 months they change the PageRank Code (Hey Google!

First of all, thanks for your continuous support and thanks also to all the people that every day visit ChkMe.com making it as reference to check the SEO status of many websites.Since long time I had not too much time to post in this blog because I am actively developing new SEO tools that are not published here, not at this time.But I have news!

Why SEO is important, this is what people usually ask and yes, don't worry, there is an answer. For every time I finish a website there is always an happy and satisfied client who leave the office and says me thanks but every time I stop and ask them "what does it means having a website?". Our website is our Shop! Common answer, isn't it? Yes, a website is like a shop, if it's not just a personal blog of course.

  I never thought and never was aiming to success. Well, success is a big word but for me it's really important. Thanks to you all that every day visit Check My SEO (ChkMe.com) and thanks also to the core optimization of GC3pro, my not so famous CMS, since the publication of the new Check My SEO, ChkMe.com, along with YoGem.com, in one month our Free SEO Tools Home gained it's first PageRank point. Yes, a SEO Star point appear in our badge, the first one.

More the time pass and more I see how many companies are appearing in this wild world web called Internet. What was missing? The doctor. Yes, the SEO Doctor is here. A new website, where they claim to offer miracles for a modest fee. The same of SEO Gurus, SEO Magicians, SEO Merchant: They all have a brilliant and powerful method that will work only if you will pay... Now we can really sleep .

Simplicity is a key factor, of course. It's the reason why we created ChkMe.com and today we received a nice email from Jayde promoting SEO Rush. Practically SEO Rush seems to copy the ChkMe style, talking clearly and giving advices on how to fix any possible SEO issue. Here's the original Mail:   Dear Xxxxx Yyyyyyyy,Simplicity is a key factor when looking for an SEO tool.

Since the beginning we never thought will be easy but today we are certain that ChkMe.com is slowly becoming popular and it's all thanks to you. We never aimed on showing too much advertisement and in fact we decided to remove all the advertisements. The one you will see are not advertisements that will never bring us an income. All we want is your satisfaction and many people contacted us saying "thanks" because using our SEO Tools they were able to fix their websites and also gained positions on various search engines like Google, Yahoo, Bing (former MSN) and AOL. We just want to say thanks to you all because your satisfaction is our best earning. Many people asked to sell the service or to sell various clones of it but we decided to continue like this, totally not dependant.

Since one of my friends asked me to explain a bit better why a lot of Guru and SEO Websites are appearing on Internet, I decided to say what SEO really means. SEO is not a magic word, you don't need a magic wand or a voodoo dool to activate it.

YoGem Uptime Monitor will be part of our Suite of Tools. It will be different for many reasons but one is the most important: Downtime Reconsideration.
