How to Increase PageRank, Get Found Through Google, and Make Some Money!

April 8, 2013 by MMD 50 Comments

If you’ve had a website for any length of time, then you’re probably already aware that every 3 months or so Google will give you “grade” called a PageRank.  Your PageRank is simply a score of how prominent your website is, and it can have a lot of implications on other factors like your earning potential, rank placement, and more. If you’ve been struggling to figure out how to increase PageRank within Google, rest assured you are not alone.  My Google PageRank was pretty much stagnant for 9 months at a PR2 before it finally increased to a PR3.  Even though I’m not an expert on search … [Read more...] about How to Increase PageRank, Get Found Through Google, and Make Some Money!

The House is Painted – Plus Blog Updates

April 6, 2013 by MMD 19 Comments

Finally!  Yet another improvement is complete and the house is painted.  For pretty much this whole week the inside of our home looks like it went into foreclosure.  All our stuff was off the walls, the curtains were down, holes were patched, and all our furniture was pushed into the center of each room.  It was very cramped.  But now it’s over and everything is slowly coming back together. I really don’t mind paying someone else to paint our house because 1) painting sucks and 2) I’m not very good at it.    For the right price, I’m finding out that some jobs are just better left in the … [Read more...] about The House is Painted – Plus Blog Updates

My Awesome Birthday Weekend and Finally a Google PageRank Increase!

Birthday Weekend

Did I happen to mention I’ve got the best wife ever? Monday was my birthday, and in celebration, Mrs MMD surprised me last weekend with a surprise trip to a bed and breakfast along the Michigan coast. What a great gift! It was a beautiful little place with a fireplace, hot-tub, champagne, and – of course - oven cooked French toast in the morning! Needless to say, I had a great birthday weekend and really enjoyed this getaway. Here are a few pictures if anyone would like to check it out:   … [Read more...] about My Awesome Birthday Weekend and Finally a Google PageRank Increase!

Weekend Wind Down 11/10/2012 – Will Star Wars 7 Suck?

November 10, 2012 by MMD 24 Comments

star wars 7

While shopping for Christmas presents last weekend, I was reminded by just how much of an influence Star Wars still is on children. So the news that broke last week with Lucasfilm selling to Disney for $4.05 billion dollars and the immediate plans to proceed with a new Star Wars 7 movie comes as no surprise to me. I have said since the Episode 1-3 trilogy that NOT making Episodes 7-9 would be far too good to pass up. And apparently Disney thought so too! So now the big question: Do you think Star Wars 7 suck? Do you think they’ll stick to the versions that are already written, or go in a … [Read more...] about Weekend Wind Down 11/10/2012 – Will Star Wars 7 Suck?

This week I am saddened to tell you that one of my great uncles has passed away at the golden old age of 86. Although we’d only see each other once per year at the family reunion, I had fond memories of him. You know how family reunions can be awkward, especially when you’re a kid? Well, no worries because here would come my Uncle to ask you how things were going and make you feel totally comfortable. Plus he was a great influence for my Dad which makes him extra important. Coincidently, I’m also reading a finance book that just got to a chapter about estate planning and wills. I’d like to … [Read more...] about Weekend Wind Down 7/21/2012

Weekend Wind Down 5/19/2012

May 19, 2012 by MMD 4 Comments

Well, wish me luck. I’m off to England today for a business trip. That’s 11 hours of travel plus a 5 hour time change. In other words, by the time I start to feel sleepy, we’ll probably be landing and it will be morning outside. My stay there will be a little over a week. I’m going to miss my family; this will be the longest I’ve ever been away from them. Luckily, the week after I return is when we go on vacation together. I’m hoping the hotel’s WiFi will be nice and reliable. My last hotel had very questionable Internet service. So if I disappear, sorry about that! Posts You Should … [Read more...] about Weekend Wind Down 5/19/2012

Weekend Wind Down 5/12/2012

May 12, 2012 by MMD 14 Comments

I’ve felt like a VERY delinquent blogger this week. My apologies to all of you who I normally visit and comment upon. Work has been extra demanding this week (with one of the big projects nearing a close), so my time has been spoken for. We’re looking forward to the weekend! Tomorrow, the boys are going to see “The Avengers” while the girls are going to get their nails done. And we’ve got all Sunday to do whatever Mrs. MMD wants to do for Mother’s Day (including catching up on all our shows that keep piling up on our DVR). Speaking of TV shows, is anyone watching “Don’t Trust the B”? That … [Read more...] about Weekend Wind Down 5/12/2012

What’s this? Am I on a boat?? Nope! That’s just me driving through my neighborhood and what it looked like after a massive rainstorm came out of nowhere! When I initially drove out of my driveway, the water was just a little deep. But the further I went along, it got deeper and deeper! I was getting a little worried and didn’t want to stop. I’m glad I didn’t stall out! This was kind of a busy week (as you can tell since I’m a day late on my normal schedule). I was on a business trip through OH when I stumbled upon something VERY interesting! More on that to follow in Monday’s post ….  I … [Read more...] about Weekend Wind Down 5/06/2012

Weekend Wind Down 4/28/2012

April 28, 2012 by MMD 11 Comments

Following the last post “The Value of What You Know”, I found a hilarious example to use as a follow-up and lighten the mood. What is it that this guy “knows” and is using to draw value from others? … Fighting Zombies of course!!! That’s right! There is a place in South Jersey that is offering a “Zombie Survival Course”. The program prepares you for the “upcoming zombie apocalypse” through teaching you to shoot guns, hot wire cars, perform first aid, and even the martial arts of “Zombitsu”. So how much does it cost to learn these life-saving survival skills? Packages run anywhere from … [Read more...] about Weekend Wind Down 4/28/2012

Weekend Wind Down 4/21/2012

April 21, 2012 by MMD 4 Comments

I’m embarrassed to admit it, but I made a little mistake last week when I ordered the 7 yards of slate stone …. I needed 3 more yards! Mrs MMD and I shoveled and spread rocks for hours and hours on Saturday only to have to make another order and finish the job on Tuesday. So after all of that, was it worth it? I think so! The landscaping looks much better than it ever has! I will have pictures once everything starts to bloom (and I get a chance to mow the lawn). Work was BUSY this week. I unfortunately did not have as much time as I usually do to devote to preparing my articles and making … [Read more...] about Weekend Wind Down 4/21/2012
