Seeing Stars

Google have finally added the review organic stars that I have been chasing for months... leaving me with a question... Why now?

Going back through the changes we have made on the site over the last few days would not suggest that this change has happened by something I've done. So I contacted the review aggregate - Feefo. They have not made any changes to the review feed going to Google for PPC / PLA adverts.

Have you had organic star ratings switched on recently? If so - could you pinpoint it to a specific change you made?

Cut the fat and enjoy a Spam Sandwich w/ Relish


How many mailing lists are you subscribed to?

Not the unscrupulous mailing lists that added you without your permission, but the ones you have picked up over the years and you may have read once of twice - but now... DELETE

I have found a great tool to clean up all the fat of the spam and condense it all into a spam burger!

unroll.me
http://www.unroll.me

http://www.unroll.me is a great tool for quickly finding out how many mailing lists you are subscribed to and easily managing them!

If you are using a mainstream web mail client like GMail or Yahoo just give it your credentials, let it sift through your mail and collate them into a simple list that lets you unsubscribe.

But - this is where it gets even better. If there are subscription emails there that you would still like to read, but you would like to manage better - add them to a 'roll' then unroll.me will collate them into a single, easy to use email that can be delivered at a chosen frequency - Easy!

I love this tool, apparently it's been around for some time... I only wish I had found it earlier!
