		<title>Botched South African national anthem in rugby game against France</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I must say that I am still stunned!

How can the organisors of an international rugby test match allow for a stoned reggae singer to completely disrespect the South African national anthem?

		<title>Different ways to Improve Search Engine Ranking</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Showing up on search engines is one of the most critical ways to increase website traffic and expose your content, product or service to people who might be interested in what you have to offer. Most of the major search engines utilize an algorithm to determine where a website ranks. The search engines have set up specific criteria that a website must meet to get to the top of the list. The criteria are different for every engine, but all engines share several commonalities. It all boils down to the type and amount of content provided on a given website, the level of optimization done on the site, and the popularity of the website (link popularity/PageRank). Tailoring your website for improved search engine rankings is also known widely as search engine optimization, or SEO.]]></description>

		<title>Inbound links = inbound income</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Inbound links? What are they exactly?

Inbound links are links that come from other websites directly to your website. The more websites you have linking to your website, the higher your search engine ranking, which means more traffic. Ultimately the importance of inbound links lies in pushing your site up the search engine rankings, but they also have a deeper purpose. Visitors from other websites that click through to your website  will most likely do so because they are interested in what you have to offer – which means you would have achieved getting interested prospects on your site with minimal effort or money.]]></description>

		<title>Why professional websites don’t cost R1000…</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For years people have been playing around with WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) HTML editors and claim that they are web designers – sorry to break it to you, but they are NOT web designers, they are novices.

Mistakes I will not readily make again.]]></description>
