Well, everyone knows that I am no newbie when it comes to IM, but when it comes to SEO, I am green as artificial grass on a glacier in antartica :D Anyways, one of my sites the other day generated a google search, and an adsense click for $2.45. This kinda excited me a little, so I decided to try a few things. I have never really done seo before, but I have actively and thoroughly read tips from many bhw members through the years. I decided to put some of these tips into action less than 24 hours ago, and this is what I came up with.

I know it is not a major accomplishment, but there is one thing that others can learn from this if nothing else..... It is possible for an old dog to learn new tricks. Oh, and also this..... Take action, and make money :)
