Something that’s "nefarious" (nih-FARE-ee-us) is extremely wicked or villainous. The word is derived from the Latin for "crime."

Example (as used by Alexis today): "Plenty of SEO publications, blogs, and forums have lots of great tips and advice on best practices. But many sites can steer you in more nefarious directions with ‘black hat’ tactics meant to ‘trick’ the search engines into ranking your site."

Testimonials

  • It was a nudge into looking at life in a fresh way

    “I recently read Michael Masterson’s article on golfing with his son. The message became very important because it was a nudge into looking at life in a fresh way. It is really amazing how routine we are. I keep a notebook now. Every day, I pluck out some incident to write about. It’s great. Thanks for the nudge Michael.”
