    Duplicate Content Or Not Duplicate Content... thats the question

    I have been told that as long as you post the content on your website first then your site will not get penalised for it being duplicated elsewhere. However if people can read the whole article in the newspaper then why will they come to your site. It may be better to have a shorter version of...

    Lack of Ladies on Here

    I think many of the user names used on this site are non gender specific, which means probably 50% of the time when you think you are talking to a man it's actually a woman. Maybe it says something that most people immediately assume the people on a business site are all men!!

    TV Licensing - BBC: End the licensing fee to watch TV in your own home.

    Tesco caught with their snouts in the trough

    I personally wouldn't choose to eat horse meat, but how many other products are being sold stuffed full of miscellaneous ingredients. We have probably been eating them for years and never known about it which I believe is wrong.

    can self employed have website

    Help with dieting for those who sit at a desk all day

    I know where you are coming from on this one as I also sit at a desk and snack!! I've found the best thing to do is not bring any bad food to work with me and instead bring in healthy snacks such as vegetable fingers or fruit. I know it sounds boring but it helps in two ways, firstly it is much...

    Google Page Ranking

    Most of the time you have to buy software to look at where you are ranking within Google. However if you have the time you can do it yourself by just doing a good old fashioned search using private browsing.

    Can I refuse to refund a customer? Offer only credit note

    I would send them a credit note, this way you are not losing out and they can order something else.

    Is design important to you?

    I'm ashamed to admit I go for form over function every time. if there were 2 products that did exactly the same but one was double the price because it looked nicer, I would pay the extra to have the nicer one!!
