Seo Home blog

Here in the UK google has added a link below the bottom search box saying Try Google Experimental linking into the labs page..

I can only assume google is seeing what people like when using the experimental search layout and shortcuts etc..

Here is the screen shot:

Fun..

I’ve been IM’d by a load of people about the new bbc homepage..

Bascially the bbc have just put live the new code but all hasn’t gone to plan..

 This is what a load of people have being seeing..

The real problem I have was I had to end task on both IE and Firefox after trying to view the bbc as it completely killed my browsers!!

Good luck beeb

 Happy holidays from me to all … Today google put and funky new logo live on the .co.uk homepage:

If you look here:

http://www.google.co.uk/doodle13.html

It would seem we are going to have a few more logos to come

 Functionally is a cool new home page but the font is a little to big…

 I know web 2.0 is all massive fonts etc but come on..

BTW I’m not the only one that said that..

 You can of course edit the homepage to fit your need like igoogle and many other…

Enjoy playing

Live.com serps do not highlight anything under 2 characters..

It seem like a lazzy way of doing things ?

Here some screen shots for the terms “ca” and “cat” 

Now you may say CA isn’t a word but live also isn’t bolding 2 lettered words…

VS the cat:

Vs google and CA

Spotted this morning when I logged in and I still messed up..

Basically google is showing the list randomly.. or in some wired order compared with the normal highest earning channel at the top..

Screen shot:

Wrong order!

Good news I think..

I’ve only every clicked on 1 once in my life and really didn’t feel it helped the user.

This also decreases the links on the page by 1

Quote from the bbc:

Huge opportunity’

Microsoft’s internet empire also includes services such as Virtual Earth, Live Search and Windows Live.

Earlier this year Microsoft bought a 1.6% stake in social networking site Facebook for $240m (£117m) and US online advertising firm aQuantive for $6bn

10 million users per month… Nice traffic.. Thats got to bump up the live UK search traffic hasn’t it? We wait and see.

I can’t say to much (yet) but hope to write about a new project and hope it wil help some folk that may come accross a similar change..

Basically and massive u-turn for a site I work with from selling online to advertising online.. The traffic is very high quality and come in massive amounts with great press coverage..

Its going to be interesting and i’ll try and write a bit about the transition as I go..

One massive bonus is the amount of time this will free up which opens new doors as I’ve haven’t been interested in new clients for over 4yrs now and with spare time is can expand…

Its pretty amazing how some drunk on the train was singing “all change” something.. (I could only make out those words) this morning on the commute into london at 9am this morning and the chance you meet a new client on the train the night before.. hmmm ..

I’ve been waiting to get my hands on the latest copy of sms…
