How to Create your Publishing Network

The Ycademy September Seminar will focus on building a personal publishing network and then to link it with other networks. The goal is to increase visibility and impact on Google and other Search Engines as well as on aggregators.

The Basic Network Structure

According to the YORGOO Publishing Model we are looking first at a three level in-house structure; thereafter we link with external networks.

The external Publishing Structure

Here we consider namely

  • Aggregators
  • Social Networks
  • Media Networks
  • Friendly Websites
  • and more

This topic will be explained and implemented during the seminar.

Search Engine Optimization

SEO will be a special issue at the Seminar. All participants will use Semiomantics Scripts tuned for aggressive configuration. We will present step by step a recommended configuration for each site on each level.

The Author Blog

In most cases, the Author Blog is a Semiomantics XO site with quite a diversified and complex category and tag structure. Authors however tend to specialize on a few main topics (categories) which would constitute the recommended primary categories of the respective newspaper sites.

The Newspaper Site

In fact each newspaper owner provides a particular mix of topics designed to attract the targeted readership. In the ideal case the mix is function of the main interest of the editor and likely to correspond to the main categories in his author blog.In addition each Newspaper editor may add external authors and their content in function of the requirements of the project. Important: only publish content with the authorization of the external authors and respect copyright notices; all participants agree to allow all the other participants to syndicate content from their networks.

Newspaper sites are built on Semiomantics NewsCast or its successor script. The sites are provided and boosted by YORGOO Press.

The Niche Sites

These sites are traditionally YORGOO Blasters or Boosters. License holders may also use XO or NewsCast scripts for the purpose whereas it is important to take into account the particular editing requirements of these two scripts.

Special Configuration of Blaster or Booster type sites will be demonstrated at the Seminar.

Pre-requisites

It is of paramount importance that participants prepare their publishing structure before the seminar. This week’s daily calls will help to prepare these structures. Also, we will publish a sample based on my own model and publish it for reference before the seminar.

A Gaggle or a Wedge http://hostingsouthafrica.net/uncategorized/a-gaggle-or-a-wedge-2/ http://hostingsouthafrica.net/uncategorized/a-gaggle-or-a-wedge-2/#comments Mon, 20 Sep 2010 22:15:58 +0000 Zo Nicholas http://zonicholas.com/?p=3632 Zo Nicholas


Flying Geese

When you are busy it’s the unusual sounds that disturb and attract your attention especially if the noise is getting louder and louder. Looking out of the window I discovered where the noise was coming from, a gaggle of geese flying straight at us, or is it a wedge of geese? No time  to discuss. Grab a camera, shoot!  The light for taking some reasonable shots was just about right as it was evening with a few clouds in the sky and the sun was soon to go down.

Geese Flying in Formation

The geese were flying in formation coming in of the sea, wave after wave of them with a few straglers trailing behind. This was a really amazing opportunity to shoot a few images and a few videos, not always so easy when caught unaware with absolutely no time to prepare. Here is one of the pictures that was taken. There will come a few more images hopefully when I have time to go through all the shots.

Best Restaurants Cape Town

When it comes to choosing amongst the Best Restaurants in Cape Town, South Africa, Thorfynn’s Restaurant at Monkey Valley Resort – under relatively new management of Darren Byrne – comes to mind.

Darren – who you see on the photo taken by David Turnley above – has a huge passion for the hospitality industry and vast experience from having brought “The Brassbell” in Kalk Bay to fame and making it a favourite dining out destination as well as serving the best fish ‘n chips almost on the wave crests of the Atlantic Ocean.

I loved to go there… but now with Thorfynn’s Restaurant just down and up the road and with a mouth-watering and well-priced menu I just eat out at home… or almost :)

Best Restaurants Cape Town

When choosing amongst the Best Restaurants in Cape Town, fine and fresh food well prepared is certainly a prime objective, however, it’s also about the environment, the views, the ambiente and the warmth of the people.

Thorfynn’s Restaurant at Monkey Valley Resort has always been an insider tip for those who love getting out of the hectic city buzz and enjoying  that unique “Out of Africa” feeling that just seems to be inherent to Monkey Valley Beach Nature Resort in general… and to this fine Noordhoek Cape Town Restaurant in particular.

Darren Byrne and his Team go the extra mile to make you feel literally on top of the world!

Sunday the day of rest http://hostingsouthafrica.net/contributors/sunday-the-day-of-rest/ http://hostingsouthafrica.net/contributors/sunday-the-day-of-rest/#comments Sun, 19 Sep 2010 19:38:36 +0000 Zo Nicholas http://zonicholas.com/?p=3625 Zo Nicholas


Sunday the day of rest

I remember Sundays when it was a day of rest, a day of peace, childhood fun and family get-togethers. These days everyone seems to be caught up in work, shopping, travel and catching up on yesterday. The 21st century appears to have acclerated society into perpetual motion, everyone chasing their tail, and yes! I am here on a Sunday…

Sunday

Sunday

Sunday for some is still a day of peace and rest. As the proverb says….“A Sunday well-spent brings a week of content.”  The lucky few.
