Thank you Keith and Jerry for a great podcast.
I love the part about simply targeting your ad to the
best sites on the content network, so you can just
piggyback off their hard work.

Thanks for the great content Keith.
A little off topic here but I was wondering why all your urls for this site have numbers in them? I’m asking because my urls didn’t have numbers in them until I installed Jeff Johnsons free plugin and now I’d like to know how to get rid of the numbers.
For example:
My former urls were like this: mysite.com/internalpage
Now my urls are like this: mysite.com/543/internalpage
Do you know why this happened and how I can revert back to urls with no numbers? I asked at Jeff Johnsons site but he won’t tell me.
Thanks
Steve

According to a few SEO gurus, here’s why…
domain.com/x/x seems to be the best URL structure.
Some say domain.com/a/123 is best (because it’s short).
Others say that domain.com/a/keyword-rich is the best (because it contains the keyword).
I use #2 because it’s geared for the click, but I suspect the first structure is best for ranking.
Personally, I can get the ranking with more backlinks as I want clicks more than bragging rights.
To change the structure, just change your permalink structure in your blog.

Hi Keith,
Will changing the permalink structure mean that your blog posts will need to be re-indexed by SE’s, as the original content destination urls have essentially changed?

Yes, but using the plugin Permalink Migrator will take care of many of your concerns.
