The Waterloo & City line is a short underground railway line in London, which was formally opened on 11 July 1898. It has only two stations, Waterloo and Bank (formerly called “City”, as it is within the City of London). Between its stations, the line passes under the River Thames.

I just love whacky stuff like that! By the way Bank must be London’s most complex and confusing Tube Stations.

Bank and Monument are interlinked stations, officially one station known operationally as the “Bank-Monument complex”, although the separate names are used on station entrances, platforms and the tube map. The complex spans the length of King William Street in the City of London. Together they form the eighth busiest station on the network, being served by five London Underground lines and the Docklands Light Railway (DLR) (Wikipedia).

Don’t arrange to meet a date at Bank, you’ll never find each other!

I met up with Tom Butler-Bowdon author of the well known Top 50 Success Classics today in the Coffee shop of Blackwell’s Book Shop for a brainstorming session and chin wag. Tom is now recognized as an expert in personal development literature.

We discussed SEO, LSI, idea-generation, the importance of keeping your website continuously updated, what we had recently read and upcoming projects. One conclusion we came to is that in the end Google seems to reward GENUINENESS ie if you have real original interesting content on your website that is of interest to other people in your NICHE then Google will eventually reward you with traffic. Obviously you can maximize with chances with good SEO but in the end as usual CONTENT IS KING. So Blog about things that are passionate and enthusiastic about and eventually you will get visitors.
