Our Second One Page Website
Some of our readers maybe familiar with a test which we carried out in November, where we tried to rank a one page website as high in Google as possible, with only one back link and following a number of on-page SEO principles.

Whether we sell it, or just keep it and be an affiliate on it, we will wait and see. As long as there are surfboards, there will be a demand for a
