Best Fathers Day Gifts - Give your dad what he really wants

Father's Day is close upon us, as can be seen by the over flowing junk mail in and around the mailbox. Everyone knows that these so called 'days' are an evil plan hatched by all the department stores and retailers so they can put their grimy hands down your pants and grab your wallet, and while they're down there, your balls too. Let's spare a thought for the countless trees that were sacrificed to bring attention to all the father's day deals

Let's for a moment forget the advertisements, even though they are like the smell of skank - clinging all over you. What do fathers really want? Does every dad want turbo charged power tools that can slice of his careless and in 2 seconds, or the latest semiautomatic garden hoe that can chop off all his 10 toes at the press of a button, or a John Rambo signature hunting knife? I don't think so. Here are the top 10 gifts any and every father would love to have.

Clothes - Lingerie, not for your dad, unless he's a fairy. Lingerie for a wife to wear for her husband. What is the common denominator for all men? Sex. Dress yourself up in sexy lingerie and turn up without a head-ache on father's day. Please note that this is probably not a good idea if you're trying to do this for your dad (you're his daughter). Unless you're super hot and your dad is a bit of an incestuous perv.

Power tools - Vibrators, this is an excellent gift because he can use it on himself as well as on his wife or partner. Believe me, if you are a wife, this is one power tool he will want to use on you everyday. Over and over again. Even when you are sleeping.

Books - How about an annual subscription to Playboy or Penthouse? Or something a bit more skankier like 'tit-o-rama' if your dad is so inclined. Not only will he actually read through the whole magazine, but this will help give his right hand a good workout too.

DVDs - Porn! I'd suggest softporn with a semblance of a story. He can fill in all the missing hardcore bits with his wife. This is the gift that keeps on giving, because when no one's home he can indulge in some serious monkey spanking. How many times can you watch Jeremy Clarkson? Once? Now how many times can you watch a hot woman undress? Nuff said.

Food - Forget chocolates or other fancy health foods. What he really wants is a bucket full of oil slathered KFC, a six pack of the best beer and some carpet to munch on a little later in the day.

Analytics

Google Analytics – This allows you to monitor who visited your web page, from where they came, and how long they stayed on your site. You have to start by cutting and pasting some html/javascript onto your website. Ideally you want to paste this in your template so it’s automatically on all you pages. This is useful because you might be trying to generate traffic through many channels. This will show you from where the traffic is coming (refered) so you will know which channels are successful. It’s much smarter than a web-counter.

Ping-o-matic

Ping-o-matic – For those bloggers out there this is an invaluable tool. It notifies all the main stream Blog and web search engines of updated content. Please note that blog hosting services such as WordPress can be configured to ping ping-0-matic. While hosts such as Blogger may or may not be doing it. It still doesn’t hurt to use this service once regularly, just to make sure everything is updated. www.pingomatic.com

Technorati

This is a blog rating site. If you just join you will have an authority of Zero, which means you will be given the least preference when it comes to search results. This also means that the chances of users actually visiting your blog through Technorati is virtually zero. The only way to increase your authority is to have other sites/blogs link to you. The best way of doing this is through blog carnivals (tip 9). The next best way is to do some link exchanging. Building up your authority is tough work. Still, lot’s of people talk about it so it wouldn’t hurt to create an account and claim your blog in Technorati. The more you put your blog out there the more chances of getting noticed.
