      Rick,

      hats off to what you are doing! I can understand you closely due to two reasons: My wife had a mis-carriage (we have a 17 month healthy baby now), so I can feel ya. Secondly, I am a victim of a problem too (which I would not like to mention/discuss here. after all its an SEO forum :)) ), and I myself go about helping other people come out of it whenever I get a chance. Adding a blog for the same is an idea I just conceptualized. Thanks to you.

      Back to SEO, if your ultimate aim is not to earn money out of your blog, then I suggest continue to do what you are doing... i.e.. right from your heart. Small changes in the technique will help you boost traffic, which seems to be your ultimate goal... i.e helping out more and more people.

      • Use google adwords tool and find similar keywords that people are searching for this syndrome. Deliberately try to use them in your posts/articles as much as you can without losing the originality and 'feel' of the article.

      - Categorizing your posts and videos is not a bad option. It will be better if the category names are some of the keywords that you have searched for above using the google tool.

      • Give relevant description for each video, possibly using the keywords you are targeting.

      • Don't market keywords with wrong spellings. That will not do good, especially since search engines correct spellings these days.

      • Add a forum to the site. let people join in and jump into discussions.  This will result in more traffic, and auto generation of content. Most of the times this content will be keyword rich.

      • A suggestion from design point of view (I am a designer myself) : Black is hard. Make the website more whiter, more neater with loads of breathing space. People will love reading it all the more.

      Hope it helps.

      Thanks,

      KS__

        Awesome website. Thanks for doing something wonderful like this.

        My little 2 cents: I posted a link to your blog post about the Ryan video on my Facebook page and our company's FB page.

        The pictures/avatars/thumbnails available for the link didn't match the video. There were about 20 available: one said ProPhoto Theme, some were blank.

        Since your site is probably going viral 🙂 adding a custom pic might be worthwhile on pages like that. Picture worth a thousand words and all. hth

        I'm off to Tweet about it.

          Thanks for all the great info everyone!

          Quick question, does anyone know how to tell Facebook what picture to show when someone shares your site?

          Thanks! 🙂

            Hey Rick,

            You should add this tag to your header in the html -

            There is more info about this here -

            https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/

            They write: og:image - An image URL which should represent your object within the graph. The image must be at least 50px by 50px and have a maximum aspect ratio of 3:1. We support PNG, JPEG and GIF formats. You may include multiple og:image tags to associate multiple images with your page.

            Hope this helps - let me know if you have issues with implementation

              Since it goes to your page, you could edit it, then underneath the profile image it should say, edit thumbnail.

              You could put your website along the bottom of the profile pic, then the share button would have your url.

              You can also make your site's name clickable under your About Section in Facebook.  Those are for the visitors that enter through Facebook.

              I see you're into video, too.  There is a cool optimization channel called VidiSEO you may want to check out if you get a chance.

              Great site!

              Jared

                  Really admire the work you are doing here. I will obviously not be able to assist to anywhere near the level as Rand but please pop me a PM or grab me on skype if you feel you would benefit from a couple of links from any of my sites... I would be privileged to provide them and would also be honored to let you guest post on any of my blogs should you wish to - I am only a message away.

                  Good luck!
