Computer games are art or at least according to the US government and NEA (National Endowment for the Arts) and this is about as official as you can get. It’s good that one’s settled. But I dare to say, that they are not just art but can actually make you smarter. Sometimes a great game blurs the line between a realistic simulation and a very fun game and achieves the supposedly impossible and becomes more than just a game. I’m … Read More →
Website Redesign And Restructuring
Finally! As you can see I redesigned the website and now it will live up to it’s name and it will become a collection of blogs, a blogpark (hence the name Simon’s Blog Park). I will do my best and try to update them as often as I can. It’s still a weekend project for me. A weekend project I take very seriously, but still. These are the new additions to the blog park: (Source: http://www.hdrphotos.com/) http://simonsblogpark.com/onlinegambling Yes, I do gamble online … Read More →
Problems with Exercising, The Lies and The Solutions
Don’t worry! I’m not going to write about cliches like “pills won’t make you slim” or “miracle, fad diets won’t work” or “you actually have to get your ass up from the chair and exercise“. No. We all know that. If someone doesn’t know it, is either very-very young or doesn’t deserve to know it and deserves to be cheated and lied to by the corporations. It’s not my job to save stupid people from themselves en masse. I don’t even think it’s possible. … Read More →
My Current Projects and My Toughts on Being A Professional Blogger for Higher Click
Lot of things happened lately! I’m currently writing the blog of Higher Click. The guys at Higher Click read my blog and probably liked it, so they asked me to contribute regularly (every week or so) to the company blog. I do this on the weekend. It’s really cool so far and I like it a lot. I like that I can contribute to the public image (and in a way to the success) of the company in such a direct way. I … Read More →
The Management of Probability, Sustainability And The Necessary Simplicity
“So we divided this month’s workload and you can see your part on the sheet in front of you.” -said David my colleague (name changed for sake of privacy) I starred sheepishly at the sheet in front of me and simply blabbered: “Well…. He did not know but at that moment, my mind was catapulted into a complex calculation and a graphical illustration of probability and long-term sustainability. Charts rose up and functions intersect splattering out semi-correct percentages of probability only … Read More →
Domains, Subdomains, Subfolders, SEO And The Human Mind
I promised a follow-up and a deeper look at the SEO implications of domains, subdomains, subfolders and how you should build up your online empire in my previous article “Quality over Quantity, The Marketing of Quality and Content Marketing”. You have to mimic the cognitive processes of the human mind itself. Sounds fancy? Well it is easier than you think and Google tries it’s best to do it for years now(They are pretty good at it btw. Knowledge graph anyone?). When it comes … Read More →
Short Post: Changes In Infoist WordPress Theme, Update 1.1.1 “To Hell And back”
I will show you how to modify your Infoist wordpress theme. I’m using Infoist wordpress theme with a few plugins and one widget. They rolled out an update just the other day and I downloaded it unsuspecting. Then all of a sudden my good looking website layout turned into a monstrosity of bad design and post mayan apocalyptic chaos. The nice, short informative teasers of my articles, I’ve grown to like were suddenly nowhere to be found. One click would bring you to … Read More →
How To Do A Simple 301 Redirect And A WWW Redirect And It’s SEO Implications
Experts working in SEO often find themselves cast in the role of an IT professional. Therefore it is my understanding, that without basic knowledge of HTML, CSS and PHP one should not call himself an SEO specialist. One of the most common of these are the redirects. If you Google it and go to the Wikipedia page you won’t get much smarter in how to actually do it or what it means from an SEO perspective. During my work I had to … Read More →
Quality Over Quantity, The Marketing Of Quality And Content Marketing
This article is a follow-up of my previous article. I highly advise you to read it before continuing with this one, otherwise you might get lost. You are right to ask after reading my previous article, that why exactly is it bad if I just appeal to the lowest common denominator of my potential visitors. Well people with lower IQ are known to have shorter attention span (from content marketing perspective it’s important because of the time spent on the … Read More →

Are you looking for quality content? Originality and fresh new perspectives? Well then look for things, which are unpopular and hard to find. Things, which you do not normally find on the first Google search result page . Popular things are usually stupid and simplistic and here is why. In this article I will not talk about alternative measurements of Intelligence and accept IQ as somewhat reliable assessment of one’s mental acuity. I know this is not entirely true but that’s a … Read More →
