fantomNews™ — the ultimate know

Well, it’s been a while… Not that the blog was absolutely inactive, after all we published our fantOons every Monday like a clockwork. But ok, that may not be quite the same thing as text blogging.

Lots of things happened in the course of this two years’ hiatus, some good, some bad. Business partners coming and going, meeting some wonderful, some not so wonderful people. Projects were developed, some completed, some not, some floundered, some succeeded – so what’s new? Let’s not bore you with retrospective navel-gazing and, instead, focus on the present day – and on what’s coming in the near future.

So: We’ll resume blogging alright now, though maybe not quite at the old rate which was a lot of fun but simply too time consuming. Also, there’s even more fantastic SEO blogs around now. (And yes, we will update our blog list later, but do allow for a few weeks till you’ll actually see it happen.

These days, links have become all important. Not that they ever were anything you could discount with impunity, but today it’s turned into a true must to get as many decent incoming (decidedly: one way) links as you can muster. And, more importantly perhaps, most people in the online marketing world, even the newbies, have actually realized it now.

Then again, if links are important, so are domains, especially the vintage variety.

Which is why we’ve decided to go for both, launching two new sites in tandem in celebration of our proactively returning to the blogosphere.

Sites that should help you gain a lot of clout if you’re into serious search marketing. We plan to discuss some of the basic tenets of this rationale in more detail further down the road: This is a mere heads up by way of a friendly “Hello, we’re back” (not that we ever weren’t, at least not quite) greeting to our loyal readers before we really start to kick the marketing engine into top gear.

So what gives?

First, there’s our new web site at DomainsForTraffic.com: As we’re refocusing more on software development again, with some real kick ass applications in the pipeline, we’ve decided to divest ourselves of a part of our domain inventory. Not all of these are “vintage” domains, but many. Not all are live, either, but many. So why not have a look yourself and take your pick before the hoi polloi goldrush starts.

But seriously, there’s some pretty good stuff to be had for the asking there, much of it at rock bottom prices, and if you must know: you’ll even find some fine special deals plus a neat introductory discount coupon over here.

Next, we’re giving away no less than three free PR6 links to anyone willing to ask!

No strings attached (ok - expectably, you’ll have to register), no reciprocal links required, no scam, no bad joke: Of course, this is obviously a teaser offer to promote our soon-to-be-launched monthly PR and traffic driving linking service code named 20 Links A Day – but it’s quite for real and can help you in achieving phenomenal results almost immediately.

So take a gander at the three free PR6 links service here.

We’ve really done our research on this kind of approach and in another post later this week we’ll give you a hands on review of some major commercial linking networks we tested extensively during the past months. And no, that won’t be about knocking the competition, quite the contrary in fact. But here, too, a little less hysterical marketing hype and a greater wallop of hard nosed factual analysis should be in good order.

Speak soon. And, er, yes: glad to be back!
