Melayu Boleh Blah!

What is melayu boleh blah?

Ever wonder what is melayu boleh blah? and why I chose that name phrase as a blog name?

Well, it came from a challenge brought up by founder of wangcyber.com. The challenge was to get the highest posible rank in either yahoo! or Google when melayu boleh was search up using both search engines. It a SEO challenge. So basically, one of SEO rules is to insert the related keyword, in this situation, melayu boleh.

To save budget, using a free web or domain service is considered the best option. In this case, using blogger. Then choosing the right domain name is another key factor. So I tried for melayu boleh for the domain name. But unfortunately, it was taken by someone. And guess what, the person who took that name, took it a few years ago but has only posted a few post. What a waste.

So the only option was to add another word at back or front. There was a few ideas for the word. At first I was considering to use the word "Lah". It dosent mean anything generally, more like and to emphasize a sentence in Malay language.

Then My brother came, He suggested to add "B" which makes it "Blah" generally meaning to go away, or chiow or let's go. It sounded quite nice. Hence melayu boleh blah was selected for the blog name. Coincidently, the main purpose of the challenge is actually to block porn base web that uses melayu boleh as the keyword. ( read preavious post: info-on-phrase-melayu-boleh)
So melayu boleh blah is a metaphor meaning "go away porn based web site that uses melayu boleh as keyword" (~whateva that means~).


The other reason I'm using "blah" is that in general terms, it means "go far away". So metaphorically it means "Melayu Boleh Pergi Jauh Ke Hadapan". Here's and example that Malayu Boleh "Go Far Away".
