		<description>Yeah Pete, it&#039;s a shame your links don&#039;t count for more in the algo atm. I&#039;m sure they will once Google start to sort the mess they created and can rank the entire seo neighbourhood as it should ;-) Nice going on the SEL blogroll link too mate, very sweet :D</description>

		<description>Thanks for the feedback Ben and sorry for those little jabs at the end - I really was clutching at straws to find some things to pick on :)

In retrospect, I could have just said two simple things... I agree with you that my previous, oversimplified advice wouldn&#039;t work in competitive niches and yes, it is a pity my 8000 social media inspired inbound links aren&#039;t worth more value (although that doesn&#039;t mean that social media doesn&#039;t play a vital role for branding, traffic and exposure... even if the links are crap).

Hope to see you around the blog more often - keep up the good work mate :)

		<description>Haha, real sorry about the hidden text in my blog (did you find that cos I told ya? I will leave that up to Google to sort out, geez maybe I will get banned too). Well I&#039;m not really - it&#039;s a personal blog and I only post every so often about random crud. Glad you read my post tho! Now if I were trying to rank the site, or wanted to make money from it that would be another story - did someone mention hillsong?</description>
