Is it the Product or the Person that makes a Company

Loren over at SEJ has a great post about the difference of Popularity of Digg and Del.icio.us. I have to admit that Kevin Rose has become an Internet Rockstar and his popularity has helped make Digg even more popular. It’s amazing what both Josh and Kevin did and I give them both credit for creating something that the people would love and find useful which is the purpose of building web apps.

Link Building

What I have learned while trying to get websites ranked on search engines that content and quality link building is key. Link building has become tricker now a days with people now being able to buy links on sites that have a high Pagerank or other websites not wanting to link to you because they are your competition. So where do you begin if you are a new site and want to get links and build up your Pagerank? Well here are some resources that I found that could help you:

Decipho Blog

With not being in school anymore and having more time to work on Decipho and writing on this blog, I wanted to add more topics to write about and mention. Not only will I still write about the progress of Decipho and new features we add but I also want to write more about how search engines work and how to get your websites ranked. I also want to write about new technologies that come out that I find interesting and adding video clips that I find funny or interesting. I hope to have at least two or three post on average so please stay tuned!

Who am I

Someone asked me to write a little bio about myself but I was very reluctant to do so but I finally got the courage to do so. I’m 23 years old and started my first business at the age of 20 which was related to travel to Hawaii. The one thing I loved about this business was trying to get ranked on the first pages of Yahoo and Google. I researched how search engines worked and got so interested in them that I decided to try and create my own which is now Decipho.

Decipho has not raised any outside funding. I just want to innovate, create and have fun!
