Beer google seo and the internet

Monday, January 8th, 2007

Just read this great post started by tedster over at wmw forums :)

 

Here a few quote from what he’s writen in regards to missconceptions (and a drinking quote from George Orwell)

1. Page Rank is not Ranking

2. Site has no technical definition

3. Page has no technical definition

 

Really like this one.. Such a bad habit (I always say tag tut tut ;) )

 

4. alt is an attribute, and not a tag

5. title is either an attribute or an element

And so on …

 Bit of fun on a Monday morning ..

Read the rest here:

Nude blogging.. google no longer telling me to share !

Friday, January 5th, 2007

Yesterday it seems google has remove is “tip” box above the serps for the keyword blog..

Basically by typing in ANYTHING like “nude blogging“  would trigger google to display a tip with the blogger logo and the text says

Tip: Want to share your online life with a blog?”

Loads of seo/webmaster became unhappy as it would drop you down in the serps for very target keywords along with views along the lines google about ranking site so if blogger isn’t ranking then why should it be on top..

 

so much coverage of this topic..

Heres some :)

supplemental results changing again!

Wednesday, January 3rd, 2007

Been watching a few site including some amazon clones which keep popping in and out of the sup’s..

 I’ve noticed some really odd site commands over the past week.. I’ve always loved looking at the ranking for site: as it give clues about the power of the internal pages..

Things i’ve noticed when promoting internal pages:

The site command returns the top level domain followed by the internal page with the most “rank” revelence not pagerank ..

The news sup’s seem to be apearing above the top level domain on “sup sites” (sup site for me is when only the top level domain is indexed)

 

Then about 2 days ago the sup de-indexed.. only to return later…

hmmm..

Still watching…
