I'm currently trying to move this blog over to our new site, I'm already displaying about the last 5 pages on the blog tabs but i want more, a lot more.
Over the last few years some of you may know I've been working in SEO or flirting with it really but I'm finding more and more of it interesting in relation to marketing my band and merch etc, I have done a number of marketing posts in this blog on how to help people market their band better on the web but I wanted to do something different with our webstore.
In essence I'm trying to integrate this blog our store, this will allow us to mider more about what we are upto and relate these to bits of merch and events that we have on our site.
You can do this using Java script widget which I use at the moment from https://www.rssinclude.com/ its free but allows me to fire info from here directly to www.sa-da-ko.com on any page I want. The bad news is that google will only read the widget code and not the information I have inputted in my blog, so in essence my blog is associated by link and not by content. its not bad but I want more google power!!!
So how do I embed this information, well Ive looked into a few options including a bit of code that I couldn't get my head round that embeds the RSS feed but I may have found the answer. if anyone has tried to do this before let me know.
My aim is to use an extension for opencart (our webstore platform) and use a blog extension this will give me what I need if I can just install the damn thing!!!
anyway I'm just hoping that I can move old articles from here over but if not I may end up getting all copy n pastey over the next year or so.
I don't know Im sharing this with you btw, I usually keep brain farts like this to my self but as I'm reading up on blogs and things I thought I would contribute a bit of bullshit to cyber space. I may keep you updated on this or might just do what I was supposed to and keep this updated with band news hahah

New Sa-da-kO Merch
04/10/12 - Dark things that Rise from the Earth
OK, were reaching the final stages of mix with “Awakenings now. This has been a journey and a half for us and a bit of a long slog but we knew when we started this that we wouldn't release something we wouldn't be proud of. Not only have we been working on the album, we've managed to put together a whole plethora of band merch, booked gigs for the end of the year and started the ball rolling on a number of music video so the coming months are starting looking really exciting for us.
Anyway we are at Manchester tonight at Grand Central performing with the mentalists that are Footprints in the Custard and Boneyard then we will be heading over to the Alma Inn on Saturday to entertain the weekend warriors, I personally have been looking forward to playing that venue for ages so its going to be my treat.
Right I’m going to have to go cos I always seem to write these while I’m supposed to be at work haha, just one last thing though our web store over at www.sa-da-ko.com is now active and as I mentioned we are stocking it up at the moment so there are some pre-orders available and you can sign up etc, have a look and let me know what you think.
