Is Google going add their own links to your website content?

2010-08-03T18:05:00.000-07:00

Is Google going to add their own links to your web pages? A recent patent application of Google indicates that this might be coming. The name of the patent is "Enhanced document browsing with automatically generated links to relevant information". It is an update of the patent application that Google filed in 2006.

What is Google's patent application about?

Here's the official abstract:

"Additional documents are automatically located that are relevant to an original document, such as a document being read by a user, and also potentially relevant to personal information of the user.

The additional documents may be located based on descriptive information that includes personal information of the user and content information of the document being read.

The additional documents, or links to the additional documents, may be incorporated into the document being read. In some implementations, the additional documents may be presented in-line with the document being read, such as through an in-link link or text snippet. The user can thus be efficiently presented with additional information that is relevant to the original document being read."

In other words: Google wants to read the contents of your web pages and then might insert their own links on your web pages.

According to the patent application, the links will be based on the personal search history and the geographic location of the web surfer as well as on the contents of the page on which Google will insert the links.

How can Google change the content of your web pages (technically)?

Changing the content of your web pages is easy if the web surfer has Google's toolbar installed.

Google's toolbar does not only send information about every page that you visit to Google, it also allows Google to change the content of each page that you visit through the document object model.

If you use Google's toolbar then Google can add any content to the web pages that you visit and you wouldn't notice that the original content has changed. Note that Google could do this. That does not mean that Google actually does this.

What type of content would Google insert on your web pages?

Google might enter simple text links on your pages, they might link existing content or they might add whole new paragraphs on your web pages. Technically, all of this is possible. It's not clear what Google will do with the methods described in the patent.

However, since there are several documents about this topic, it seems that they are serious about this.

Google knows a lot about you and they control a lot of the information that we get on the Internet. Will they also change the content of your web pages in the near future?

Being listed on Google's first result page is becoming more important than before. Google can only recommend your website as a link if they know your site. To optimize your website for Google, use the top 10 optimizer in IBP.

Steps for Creating a Social Media Strategy

2010-07-29T21:43:00.001-07:00

3 Steps for Creating a Social Media Strategy

Social media is all about engaging with people whether it be clients, friends, or relatives. As Li Evans of Serengeti Communications explains, “Everybody likes to share, and they like to share a story.”

She goes on to tell WebProNews that businesses are just now grasping how they can use social media. If they create valuable content, she says people will share it, which will expand their reach.

Contrary to some beliefs, effective social media marketing is a lot more than simply having a Facebook page. Evans says businesses need to, first of all, understand where their audience is. Although Facebook and Twitter have exploded in popularity, it doesn’t mean that your audience is there. If this is the case, these platforms will not be effective for your business.

It could be that message boards and forums are where your audience is. Although these areas have been around since before the term social media was even coined, Evans believes they are still very powerful, have a large reach, and rank in search engines. Other effective platforms include ratings and review services and location-based sites.

Secondly, businesses need to understand what their resources are. It is important to realize what you are capable of doing before you jump in. Otherwise, you could quickly get overwhelmed, which could lead to failure.

Thirdly, businesses have to listen to what their audience is saying. Just as businesses need to understand their resources before embracing social, they need to do a lot of listening too. If not, Evans says it could be compared to petting a shark. Businesses should know what is acceptable and what is not before they embark on a social media campaign.

Once a business applies these 3 steps, she says it can build a social media strategy.

Domain Name for SEO

2010-07-28T19:16:00.000-07:00

Select a Domain Name That Boosts SEO

There are two ways of selecting a domain name. You can choose the domain name first and use it as your organization name or vice versa. Most of the old organizations prefer to retain their brand name in their URL.

Many startup organizations select their URL first and then name their organization. This is because of the non availability of the perfect URL.

Your website URL is your online identity that is visible to millions of internet users. It impacts your organization name, website seo and future business endeavors. All these factors should be taken into consideration before selecting a URL.

Boost Your Website SEO with the Following Domain Selection Tips:

1. Choose a Keyword Rich Domain Name:

A keyword rich URL is a bonus for any website. It helps boost ranking in the search engine results pages. If the desired keyword rich URL is not available, you can add a prefix or a suffix to the keyword. A URL which contains a combination of keywords helps in drawing more traffic to the website.

2. Include Hyphens in the Domain Name:

Search engines can distinguish between hyphenated keywords very easily. This helps in ranking better in search results pages. Hyphenated keywords in the URL are a good option if the desired keyword rich URL is not available.

There is one pitfall in using hyphens in the URL. Your website visitor can land on the competitor's website if they forget to add the hyphens. Webmasters should include hyphens as a last option to obtain the perfect domain name.

3. Select A Top Level Domain Name:

A website URL should be selected based on the geographical location of the customers. If your website caters to the customers at a global level, a dot-com domain is suitable for you. If the dot-com domain is not available, you can opt between dot-net and dot-org. If your organization is based in United Kingdom, your top level domain should be dot-co-dot-uk. A non-profit organization should opt for dot-org as their top level domain.

4. Purchase a New Domain Name:

A domain name should be researched well before purchasing. It is an important to get a URL related to your niche.

Tips for purchasing a new URL:

a. The name should be easy to spell & remember.

b. URL's are inexpensive. You can register multiple keywords rich URL and redirect them to the main domain. As a result, a lot of traffic will be directed to the main site.

c. Make sure that you are not infringing another organizations brand name.

d. If your organization belongs to a particular region, Purchase a geo specific URL. This helps in capturing the target audience.

5. Purchase an Aged Domain Name:

Always check the background of an aged domain before purchasing it. Aged domains can give your website seo a good boost.

Tips for purchasing an aged URL:

a. Check the domain age. This will give you an idea of how old the domain is. Google gives a lot of importance to aged domains in search results pages. Your chances of ranking well improve with the age of the domain name.

b. Note the page rank of the aged domain. As the page rank increases, the importance of the domain increases.

c. Calculate the number of backlinks of the aged domain. An aged domain should have a few hundred backlinks. If the backlinks are not sufficient or are of poor quality, move on to purchasing another aged domain.

A good domain name should not exceed 67 characters. Look for a reputed service provider to host your URL. Register your URL for a few years instead of one year. Your website will leave a good and lasting impression on Google.

Does Google show the right Sitelinks type for your website?

2010-07-21T00:02:00.000-07:00

When Google displays Sitelinks below your website listing in the search results, it's very likely that your website will get more clicks and more visitors. The majority of searchers click on the top 3 results. For that reason, getting more links in the top three results increases the number of clicks that your website will get.

Unfortunately, Google does not always display the right Sitelinks. This article explains how to check your Sitelinks and how to make sure that Google displays the right Sitelinks for your website.

How to check which Sitelinks Google displays for your website

It seems that Google only return Sitelinks when they are confident that the search query is looking for a specific site.

If you want to see the Sitelinks for your website, search Google for your domain name without the .com or for any other keyword for which your website is listed on the first position.

For example, if your domain name is "cebuads.info", search Google for "cebuads".

Which type of Sitelinks does Google display for your website?

If you search Google as explained above, Google will display one of the following Sitelinks below your listing:

Google shows up to eight text links that are identical to your website navigation links. If you see these links, the navigation of your website can be parsed by Google and it divides your website into separate categories. This is good.

Sitelinks that go to random pages on your website. If you get these links, the navigation of your website probably can't be parsed by Google and Google took the pages with the most backlinks for the Sitelinks. This is not so good.

Google does not display any Sitelinks. If Google does not display any Sitelinks for your website then it's very likely that your website is not search engine friendly and that your pages cannot be parsed correctly. This is bad.

How to get better Sitelinks

Google generates the Sitelinks for your website based on your website navigation and based on the links that point to your website.

If Google shows the wrong Sitelinks or no Sitelinks at all for your website then you should work on your website navigation:

Avoid JavaScript and Flash navigation and try to use regular links as often as possible.

If you use images for your website navigation, make sure that the images contain alternative texts that allow Google to categorize your links.

If your website has a clear navigation, it will be much easier to get Sitelinks for your website.

Do not use too many navigation links and make it easy for web surfers and search engines to find out which pages of your website are the most important pages. The better a web page is linked, the more likely it is that it will appear in the Sitelinks.

Google Expands Tag Advertising for Local Businesses

2010-05-02T09:02:00.000-07:00

Last week Google changed the Local Business Center to Google Places, and along with that change came some new features for local businesses. We looked at those here.

Among those changes was the addition of Google's tag advertising. For $25 a month, businesses (in certain cities) can use Tags to highlight their listings on Google.com and Google Maps. These are yellow markers that let you promote important aspects of your business. They can be used for things like coupons, photos, and other select features. They don’t affect the rank of search results, but they give customers more information and may prove beneficial.

Google promised that while the offering was starting out in a limited number of cities, that number would be expanding. The expansion process is underway. Google has now announced the addition of 11 new cities.

The new cities are: San Jose, Houston, Austin, Atlanta, Washington DC, San Diego, Seattle, Boulder, Chicago, San Francisco and Mountain View.

"You'll notice that we’ve added Mountain View, CA to the list of cities participating in the trial," says Product Manager Shalini Agarwal. "Because we are still tweaking the product a bit, we thought we’d make it available in our hometown so we can get quick feedback as we work on new features."

Businesses in the available cities can sign up for Tags from their Google Places accounts.

In a couple weeks, Google says it will launch a new tag type: "post to your Place Page". This will be a freeform text field that will let business owners highlight custom messages announcing sales or events.

The company did not indicate when more cities will become available, but I would expect the feature to make regular expansions in the not-too-distant future.

Google Gets Favorable Ruling In Rosetta Stone Case

2010-05-02T09:01:00.000-07:00

A lawsuit filed by language software firm Rosetta Stone against Google for copyright infringement has been dismissed by a federal judge.

In its lawsuit, filed in July 2009, Rosetta Stone alleged that Google allowed third parties including individuals involved in software piracy to purchase the right to use Rosetta Stone trademarks or other terms confusingly similar in Google's Adwords advertising program.

Google said the ruling was "consistent with a growing line of decisions" about the Internet.

"Users searching on Google benefit from being able to choose from a variety of competing advertisers, and we've found no evidence that legitimate use of trademarks as keyword triggers or in the text of advertisements confuses consumers. We're pleased that the judge has ruled in Google's favor, consistent with a growing line of decisions in the Internet space," Google said in a statement.

Rosetta Stone expressed its disappointment about the ruling, charging that Google does not do enough to stop such practices on its AdWords platform.

"We are deeply disappointed that Rosetta Stone was not given an opportunity to present at a public trial the facts underlying Google's practices and the motivation that led Google to adopt its current trademark policies," stated Tom Adams, President and CEO of Rosetta Stone Inc.

"Google has a corporate responsibility to protect consumers and promote trust in its search results. Without question, Google knows that counterfeit software is being advertised in its Adwords program and takes no effective steps to stop this illicit activity."

Rosetta Stone said it plans to review the decision and will consider an appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals.

Facebook Finding More Ways to Compete with Google

2010-05-02T09:00:00.000-07:00

Apparently Facebook is not content with only taking over the web, but wants to get some penetration into the physical world as well. Taking a cue from another dominant company, Google, Facebook is now giving brick and mortar businesses decals to put in their windows. While Facebook tells WebProNews the decals are currently only a test with a small number of businesses, I would expect this to be expanded in the future.

Is Facebook a worthy competitor to Google? Tell us what you think.

Increasing Competition with Google

Google has been sending decals to businesses as part of its Favorite Places program. In fact, they even just announced the expansion of this last week. Whereas Google's decals include a QR code pointing to the business' "Place Page," Facebook's include a link to the business' Facebook Page.

Google has its fair share of competition from a variety of angles. Apple is getting a great deal of the attention in this regard (making two big moves yesterday), but Facebook is up there as well. Facebook is already a key competitor in terms of where people spend their time online. Facebook expanding its presence all over the web only increases that, and will likely play a big role in the diversification of how people obtain information - in other words, maybe a little less Googling. Some of us have even speculated on the possibility that Facebook could one day create it's own AdSense-like network.

Google Making More Changes to the SERPs

2010-05-02T08:59:00.000-07:00

Google has a couple new elements going on in its results pages. The first one is the addition of brand links for some queries. For example, if you search for "watches" you might get links for Citizen, Nixon, Rolex, Omega, and Fossil. Or if you search for "footballs" you might get links for Wilson, Nike, Rawlings, Spalding, and Dallas Cowboys.

In the ones I've seen, they appear near the top of the results, just below the top paid listings. They are not links to the sites of these brands, however. They are links to SERPs for queries that incorporate those brands into them. For example, clicking "Wilson" in the footballs example will take me to results page for "wilson footballs".

Yahoo CEO: "Google Is Going To Have A Problem"

2010-05-02T08:57:00.000-07:00

It's no secret that Google has, on a very steady basis, dominated its competition and managed to return big profits. And Carol Bartz may be in no position to question the company's methods. But Yahoo's CEO nonetheless chose to point out a potential weakness this week, and she may be on the right track.

Does Carol Bartz have enough credibility to criticize Google? Tell us what you think.

Bartz told Jonathan Fildes, "Google is going to have a problem because Google is only known for search. It is only half our business; it's 99.9% of their business. They've got to find other things to do."

Also, in terms of how Google will be judged as it attempts to find those other things, Bartz observed, "Google has to grow a company the size of Yahoo every year to be interesting."

The 99.9 percent figure is obviously an exaggeration. Still, if you figure that Google has a market cap of around $169 billion and Yahoo's market cap is closer to $24 billion, the second remark doesn't seem too inaccurate.

So as Bartz indicated, that puts a lot of pressure on Google to succeed at something other than search. Whether that something's Android, Google Apps, the TV Ads program, or a different product doesn't matter, but in this light, Yahoo's rather scattered network of properties starts to look a little more attractive.

UPDATE: A regulatory filing has revealed that Carol Bartz received $47.2 million in compensation for her work in 2009, which is far more than either Eric Schmidt or Steve Ballmer collected.

What do you make of Carol Bartz's remarks -- and her compensation package? Let us know in the comments section.

How to get your breadcrumbs on Google's result pages

2010-02-02T21:21:00.000-08:00

Webmasters continue to see breadcrumbs on Google's result pages. What are breadcrumbs, for which websites does Google display them and how can you get Google to display breadcrumbs for your own website?

What are breadcrumbs?

Breadcrumbs is the name for the hierarchical site navigation links that are often used on web pages. Here's an example: "You are here: Home > Category > Sub category > Page".

Since a few weeks Google displays breadcrumbs for some websites on the search result pages:

Why is it good if Google shows breadcrumbs for your website?

If Google displays breadcrumbs for your website then you basically have more links on Google's result page. Each page in the breadcrumbs line has its own link.

If your web page is listed with breadcrumbs in the results then it is more likely that the searcher will come to the right page on your website and that you will get a sale.

How can you get Google to display breadcrumbs for your website?

If you want Google to display breadcrumbs for your website, you have to use bread crump navigation on your web pages. That means that you must have a set of delimited links on your website that reflects your website hierarchy.

Google's Matt Cutts recently published a video in which he tries to shed some light on the topic. It seems that Google is still testing breadcrumbs on the result pages and that the display of breadcrumbs in the search results will change (just like Google's Sitelinks changed).

Regarding the question which delimiter is best for breadcrumb navigation, Matt remains very vague. For example, links could be delimited with >, hyphens or the » symbol. So far, all examples on Google pages use > as the delimiter so it's probably best to go with that symbol.

Depending on the size of your website, it is a good idea to use breadcrumbs. They make it easier for users to navigate your website and they help users to remember where they are on your website.

Of course, breadcrumbs alone won't get you in Google's search results. You must also make sure that Google finds the right keywords on your website and that your website has enough inbound links.

This tutorial can help you a lot on how to optimize your website for the search engines. If your website is not ranking high in search engine and you want to make a quick change on it then this tutorial is for you and will be very helpful.

SEO Tips and Guides

Target the Right Keywords
First thing to do is identify the keywords you have in mind that define what visitor will be looking for. You should always remember that single word keywords are more difficult than two or three keywords except when those keywords are more competitive. You have to use keyword-phrasing at least two or three words.

Web Design for the Keywords
To think the keyword, design of your code. What is this mean? This is also the algorithm.
Algorithm can be thought as a design of code. Title and Meta Tags should have keywords at the placement of the keywords in code.

Alt Tags
Image alt tags can be readable in search engines. Using image tags to your images can help your website rank in search engines. Use your keyword in image alt tags and repeat the title in the alt tags.

Text and Link
The most important of the search engine optimization (SEO) is the content or text. It is a good idea to make your sites all text with target keywords, readable in visitors. This helps in Google by adding links with the keywords. Do not overuse the keywords. It needs to be a balance the rest of text and the keywords in the content, it is known keyword density.

TITLE
The title should contain the most important keyword, one or two others. It should have a unique title on all the pages. Always brand your site. Remember: The main keyword should never be first, you company name should be.

Meta Tags
Use a good keyword rich descriptive with the same keywords in your title tags. You can add the keywords if needed. Save the others for the interior pages to make your site rank as a “Category Site”.

SEO 101: What's in a Domain Name!

2009-08-20T01:13:00.000-07:00

Domain names are used in URLs to identify particular Web pages. Every domain name has a suffix that indicates which top level domain (TLD) it belongs to. Because the Internet is based on IP addresses, not domain names, every Web server requires a Domain Name System (DNS) server to translate domain names into IP addresses.

Why do you need a domain?

* on the internet a domain name is the land, your website or blog is the house.

* you need to won the asset, it is easier to transfer or sell

* own domain and hosting means you at less at risk from other people doing the wrong thing.

Theme Keyword in Domain Name

1. The 2 most important on-page SEO factors are having your theme keyword in the Domain and in the Title of the page.

2. Having the theme keyword in the domain name is better than just having the theme keyword in the URL

3. In SEO you want every advantage working for you if possible.

Domain Naming Suggestions

* Use theme Keyword in domain selecting either .com, .net, or .org in that order (ie. setools.com)

* If domain name not available use hyphens

* If domain name with hyphens are also taken, add a prefix or suffix to the domain name for exmaple

setools.com (or site or website or my or your etc.)

1 = 42.1 = 421
2 = 11.9 = 119
3 = 8.5 = 85
4 = 6.1 = 61
5 = 4.9 = 49
6 = 4.1 = 41
7 = 3.4 = 34
8 = 3.0 = 30
9 = 2.8 = 28
10 = 3.0 = 30

From Position 6-5
A 1 ranking position changed, means 20% increase in traffic

we get a 24% increase in traffic

From 4-3
there's a 39% increase in traffic

From 3-2
there's a 40% increase in traffic

Google Pagerank Formula

2009-03-13T05:24:00.000-07:00

First let me explain what the damping factor is. The damping factor is the amount of your PR which you can actually pass on when you vote / link to another site. The damping factor is widely known to be .85, this is a little less then the linking pages own PR.

PR(A) = (1-d) + d(PR(t1)/C(t1) + ... + PR(tn)/C(tn))

In layman's terms PR(A) is the Pagerank boost your page A will get after being linked from someone else's site (t1). PR(t1) is the pagerank of the page which links to you and C(t1) is the amount of total links that (t1) has. It is important to know that a pages voting power is only .85 of that pages actual PR and this voting power gets spread out evenly between all sites it links to.

Imagine http://www.se-optimization-updates.blogspot.com was linked by XYZ.COM's link page which had a PR of 4 and 9 other links, here's how the formula should look like:

PR(AKA) = (1-.85) + .85*(4/10)
PR(AKA) = .15 + .85*(.4)
PR(AKA) = .15 + .34
PR(AKA) = .49

To sum up my site would get an injection of .49 PR after being linked from a page with a PR of four and 9 other links.

Let's say I was linked from a site with a PR of 8, double the previous example's amount, which had 15 other links, a total of 16 outbound links, my boost would be:

PR(AKA) = (1-.85) +.85*(8/16)
PR(AKA) = .15 + .85(.5)
PR(AKA) = .15 + .425
PR(AKA) = .575

The above two worked examples show that not only is the PR of the linking page important but what is also important is how many other sites are also linked to from that page.

I think we've had enough maths stuff for now, just remember that the name of the game is to get as many links from pages with high PR and few other links. The more of these links you get the more your PR will grow and the more your rankings will improve for your relevant keywords.

Google Ranking Algorithm

2009-03-13T05:22:00.000-07:00

Google ranking algorithm

Let's now continue onto the main part of this Google rankings report by indulging ourselves in the Google ranking algorithm. Well there are two main parts to the algorithm Google uses, the first is its text matching system whereby Google tries to find pages relevant to what the searcher has entered in the search box. The second and equally important part of the algorithm is of course the Google patented Pagerank™ system.

I'll first go through how to make your pages relevant by discussing the text matching part of the algorithm.

Google gives a lot of "weight" to the title tag when searching for keywords. It is therefore vital to make sure your most important keywords or key phrases appear within this tag. It seems to work best if you've other words in your title tag too after your keywords, but try to remain under 35-40 characters.

I imagine many of you know this already but Google does not use meta tags such as the keywords meta tag or the description meta tag. This is because the text within these tags can't be seen by visitors to a website. Therefore Google feels these tags will be abused by webmasters placing lots of unrelated words in them in order to get more visitors.

This lack of support for meta tags means that Google creates your description from the first few lines of text on your page. This in turn means that you've to have your keywords and phrases right at the top of your webpage, if Google finds them your page becomes more relevant, if however it doesn't find them the rest of your page has to work harder to become relevant.

Hopefully your beginning to get the idea. The idea is to have your page linked to by as many high quality and high pageranked sites as possible. Right? RIGHT and WRONG.

WRONG BECAUSE, you see the Google Pagerank system also takes into account the number of links the page that has linked to you has. The reasoning for this is that a page X has a certain amount of voting PR, if your site Y is the only link from that page X, then Google feels confident that page X thinks your page Y is the best link it has and will give you more PR. If however page X has 50 links, page X could think your only the 50th best link. Hence the more links a page has the less of a PR boost your site will get.

RIGHT BECAUSE, linking to a site with a 6+ PR will provide a significant boost to your PR in most cases, but in cases where the site also links with 100 other sites the boost will be almost zero. Likewise if a site has a PR of just 2 but you and only one other site are linked from it, then the PR boost would be more than the site with 100 links and a PR of 6.

Page Rank is based on Content or Links?

2009-03-13T05:14:00.000-07:00

If you doubt after two months of your website or blog gained or have a Page Rank (PR).

Why is it your site or blog got PR 2 or above directly or even 2 months old?

Page Rank (PR) is based on incoming links, not content. Though you will get more links with original content.

Off page Optimization Tips

2009-03-13T05:12:00.000-07:00

- Submit your site to hundreds of search engines. But prefer you may submit your site to directories. Much better if you submit to a free directory site.

- Join to forums, you can create a signature for your site.

- Create Blog and use your keywords.

- You can also do blog commenting to a related site.

- Link Building (one way or 2 way).

SEO vs. PPC

2009-03-13T05:09:00.000-07:00

SEO vs. PPC, SEO has improved for the past several weeks, while PPC has become more of a challenge. Don’t know if that is unique to our company / market, but wouldn’t be surprised.

Do you offer something people are going to purchase and do they know they would have to purchase it?

Chances are if they know they have to buy it they aren't searching for it nearly as much right now. If your site / website is content and not just a store and people search for items they know are free like stories on a subject and what not, probably doesn't have as big of an effect.

Economy state has effected a lot of things one way or another whether directly or indirectly I don't think you could say there is anyone that hasn't seen the effects at least slightly.

For example I bet webmaster sites traffic went down due to people not able to start new websites or closing existing sites.

Social media optimization or SMO

2009-03-13T05:08:00.000-07:00

Social media optimization (SMO) is a set of methods for generating publicity through social media, online communities and community websites. Methods of SMO include adding RSS feeds, social news buttons, blogging, and incorporating third-party community functionalities like images and videos.

Social media optimization is related to search engine marketing, but differs in several ways, primarily the focus on driving traffic from sources other than search engines, though improved search ranking is also a benefit of successful SMO.

Social Media optimization is considered an integral part of an online reputation management (ORM) or Search Engine Reputation Management (SERM) strategy for organizations or individuals who care about their online presence.

Social media optimization is in many ways connected as a technique to viral marketing where word of mouth is created not through friends or family but through the use of networking in social bookmarking, video and photo sharing websites. In a similar way the engagement with blogs achieves the same by sharing content through the use of RSS in the blogsphere and special blog search engines.

Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

2009-03-10T02:11:00.001-07:00

Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the process of optimizing your website for the purposes of increasing the likelihood of appearing on the top of search results on search engines like Google and Yahoo. Optimization has emerged as the world's fastest-growing means of advertising and marketing due to its effective abilities of generating new business and simultaneously increases brand awareness. For people who seriously think about increasing website traffic (the cumulative result of Internet users who visit your website), Search Engine Optimization work is a natural choice.

Results: Gaining top rankings through the Search Engine promotion of your website is hard work. It can take months to achieve and is a never ending process of analysis, link building, re-optimization and re-submission. Because of this, and the way that the Search Engines' search algorithms, no one can guarantee the No.1 position in the organic results through Search Engine promotion alone. However done correctly, SEO is an extremely cost effective form of marketing. Therefore always choose a well established company with a pr oven and ethical track record.

2008-11-12T00:32:00.000-08:00

Google has reported to their Adwords blog which two new changes are coming to the Adwords Quality Score.

These are the details:
First, Google Quality Score Calculation Score is in need to change an ad's CTR based on the ad's position. It is not completely new change as Google has always normalized the CTR based on the ad position. Now, they are updating the issue of existing technology that they have already been using for the ad position calculation. or calculating the ad position. Using fresher and more updated data that will ensure greater accurate Adwords Quality Score.

Second, How some ads promoted to the top position. The changing of formula is used to move an ad instead from right side of page move to the listings on top of the organic results. As we know if an ad in the first position did not meet the promotion quality requirements, the ad in the second listing did meet the threshold then the second ad would not be promoted. The update or changes in place, these ads will be move and jump above the ad in the first position and promoted to the top position or top listing.

Advertisers would need to concentrate on this changes more on the ad copies and their promotional qualities particular the second one about how some ads are promoted to the top position.

Content VS Backlinks

2008-11-04T20:52:00.000-08:00

Content

is a key factor to rank well. Content is important in your website that readable by spiders, and readers or viewers. You can still gain backlinks if you put the unique content of your blog or web site. Proving unique content related to your web site is a good, we can say content is king. No need to promote much your web site, you can get high page rank in a couple of months. Good Unique Content is the target from the visitors to read the latest updates or press releases. More related sites are likely to promote your site in their site. Webmaster out there asking you to be added in one way or 2 way link exchange. No need to promote your website and finding related sites to exchange link.

Backlinks is also important but we consider this another option to be popular in search engines. Building Links is important for the web site to gain PR or page rank but not all links are valued equally by search engines.
