Woot woot, we are back to another version of Sweet Monday Roundup. Let me give you the highlight of the week. Well first thing first, this week was the one that Balkhis hit 1000 subscriber mark. Hence why you see the count on the right hand side. If you don’t then it means you are seeing a cached version. So keep refreshing and you will see the count update. My personal life was good but very hectic the past week. Considering I had 3 tests, 2 Quizzes, and 1 paper (800 words). The bad part was that my two tests and 1 quiz and a paper was all due monday. But now the week is over. Weekend was superb. Well not all that superb considering Florida Gators lost in the football game, but It was superb because I went to the oldest city in Florida, St. Augustine. This city have a lot of cool places, but I mainly went for the beach. The waves were definitely over 12 feet and as high as 18 feet (my approximate). Fun fun, I will put up more pictures later on this week. But aside from all this I had fun time reading some of the awesome posts, so check these out:

This Week at Balkhis
This week at Balkhis was very informative for the readers I suppose because I got very good feedback from the posts that I wrote. If you didn’t read any post from the last week, I strongly recommend you to do so. There wasn’t a single post last week that was not important.
I wrote a series of post that can help you increase your Search Engine Traffic

Then I wrote a short guide on What is RSS?
Also a funny post about Your Guide to Enjoy the Terrible Economy
Once again this week was superb for Balkhis. Hit 1k Subscriber mark, a consistent one. Traffic was really high specifically due to the tutorial posts. All the social networks just loved me. And ofcourse it wouldn’t be possible without you guys.
If you think you should be in the link roundup in next week. Send me an email with the link to your article, and if I like it. It will be up. Or a good way is just be in my top commentators because I check their sites before anyone else.
Hey, I am Syed Balkhi, The guy who is behind Balkhis Inc. I entered the industry back in 2002 not knowing a single thing. I barely spoke English at that time. In the past six years, my language barrier has been eliminated. Aside from English, now I also speak html, and php. Along with the languages I have also managed to master a few arts. Art of web-designing started when I first entered. Messing around with photoshop, I learned how to create my first web design. Now I founded a web designing firm Uzzz Productions. After running numerous amount of websites in various niche, I have mastered the art of web-development. Now I am compiling a resource of what I already know, and what I am learning on this blog. This resource is to help me if I ever need a guide to look back to, and it is help my fellow webmasters.
