The thing is, London is covered in the ask / “75% of online information goes through one company” ads!

Well, last night I was sat in a pub in soho with some friends… I after a few much needed beers I was in need for the loo..

Well.. What did I find..

Interesting spot by a member on dp forum of a url on google that returns serps with no ads..

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&output=googleabout&q=web+design

Simple as that !

 No ad blocker need..

Is this site breaking the TOS ?

 hmmm.. By the looks of it yes but maybe its a premium account holder..

Anyway it look really cool..

Here is the code that not only styles up the ads but opens the in a new window.. I’ve never seen anything like this before:

function google_ad_request_done(google_ads) { if (google_ads.length < 1 ) return; if (google_ads[0].type == 'text') { for(i = 0; i < google_ads.length; ++i) { document.write("

” + google_ads[i].line1 + “” + “” + google_ads[i].line2 + ” ” + google_ads[i].line3 + “

” + “” + “” + google_ads[i].visible_url + “

“); } } if (google_info.feedback_url) { document.write(”Baby Ads by Google“); } else { document.write(”Baby Ads By Google”); } }

Function is interesting.. Taken from http://www.askbaby.com/

Spotted on DP here

Yesterday I posted about the grey bar for new page in which my meaning of new was unindexed pages.. OK .. My thinking was the fact once indexed the page will go to pr0 fine..
http://www.seohome.co.uk/2007/05/02/grey-bar-for-new-pages/ 

So today i’ve checked out a post on SERT that has been indexed..
see here

But if you visit the page then your see no page rank info..

This is pretty massive when link building as before you would keep away from grey PR as it would mean the site was banned..

That he thought we will see Grey PR till the next update and at present it look like that might be the case..

Toolbar Page rank has gone grey this morning for non indexed pages..

 First spotted this on forum “new” link which on vbulletin forum return a search id and listed the latest forum post.. The page isn’t index by google due to no follows and a redirect..

Its been such a long time since i’ve a grey bar..

Here some screen shot from the seroundtable forums.
