Wild Weekend Hop

August 27, 2011 / 17 Comments

I am trying to get my numbers up for Google Friend Connect, Facebook and Twitter.  So I’m trying another blog hop today.  Let’s everyone keep our fingers crossed this one goes better than before!!

Soooooo HELLLLOOOOOO to my new followers! Thank you so much for the follow!!

Now if you aren’t here from the hop….. well, you still could join the GoogleFriendConnect…..group…. Twitter… what about the daily newsletter??  Or you could just vote for me on Picket Fence… I’m shameless….. I will beg for hits……

Have a great weekend all.  And if you live back east?  BE SAFE!!!

If walls could talk, my blog would whisper, “It wasn’t me.”
Because somehow, somewhere between coffee refills and letting the dog out, the Ghost of Peanut Butter and Whine keeps sneaking in and removing pictures and videos.

I don’t delete them. I would remember that. I am a responsible adult who double-checks things. And yet… photos vanish. Videos evaporate. Blog posts wake up looking underdressed, like they forgot their pants.

Cue dramatic music.

After the fifth “Where did that image go?” moment, I decided to stop fighting the paranormal and use it as an opportunity. If the ghost insists on rearranging my content, then I’m going to roll up my sleeves and improve my SEO score while I’m at it.

Because if I’m re-uploading images anyway, they might as well have proper file names, alt text, and sizes that don’t make Google sigh heavily. Videos? Optimized. Old posts? Updated. Keywords? Polished like they’re heading to prom.

SEO updates aren’t glamorous. No one brings a casserole when you rename image files from IMG_8472.jpg to ghost-proof-blog-photo.jpg. But they matter. Search engines like clarity. Readers like faster loading pages. And apparently, ghosts like chaos.

While I’m updating, it’s also a great time to remind you about my monthly $50 Your Way Giveaway, where one lucky winner gets PayPal, Venmo, or a gift card of their choice. You can find all the details right here:

And because Google loves good neighbors, here’s an external resource I actually use when brushing up on SEO basics:

So if you notice posts looking sharper and loading faster, don’t worry. It’s not a haunting.
It’s just me, outsmarting the ghost… one optimized image at a time.
