I got the latest copy of SMS fall 2007 and once a again enjoyed the read..

Its was a great read regarding the internation side of search as i’m in the uk and “play” with a few european search engines..

The UK with its 79% google search share is something I agree with you a stats point of view.. Great info to remind clients too…

The toolkit page was a good reminder of how you should check your own bookmarks once in a while LOL..

Anyway its well worth a read so go and subscribe: http://www.searchmarketingstandard.com/magazine.html

P.S..   Boris Mordkovich and Andrey Milyan are not identical twin but have the same avatar lol

Some massive speed issues with good in the uk..

Its only 8am GMT so most people still in bed but trying to login into to google is taking about 30 seconds..

Gmail, adsense and even just doing a search is painful..

I know this well not take long to fix but its pretty crazy how slow thing are right not..

You may suggest its just me but every other site is loading fast in both IE FF so some DC might be down over here..

Come on and reset that switch so I can do a little work!

update:

I’ve asked a load of people in the UK if google was slow and got the same answer.. Over the last 24hrs people in the UK have had quote “awful” connection speed’s with google..

Its seems to be fine now a few hr’s later… At least I can do some work now..

OK.. This isn’t really going to work for many people but today I added a new way to combat SPAM submissions to one of my directories…

Almost all of my sites are for the UK only… Non UK traffic only really cost me $$ and makes me nothing… Anyway I have a UK directory for the uk.. Simple so no non UK sites are allowed…

Of course many so called SEO’s or spammer can’t F**king read the conditions for a submission…

So… I’ve added the following..

$time_array = localtime(time());
$currenthr=($time_array[2])-1;
if ($currenthr > 9 && $currenthr < 18){

//allow submission

}

else {

// tell them the office is shut  (along with a few other things) 

}

At present I have a 82% rejection rate… And because i’m off on my holidays soon I need to cut down this rate..

Posted a bit about it here:

Stumble upon not working this morning..

Hope it comes back soon…

I’ve just launched a new site on monday and SU is ranking #1 for the domain which is 2 words joined together..

Come on SU get back online

My first blog from my pda. I’m one of those sad gits on the trian going to london.

So get to the point !

Well now with a pda i’m able to see sites mad for phones. Just yesterday    I was reading about a new book on websites design for mobile which is on my reading list, its not yet out but a blog/site by “Cameron” has much of the content of the book already… http://mobilewebbook.com/

The book focuses will be on design but design imho works hand in hand with seo..

More to come soon on mob’s and pda seo marketing

I’ve been meaning to blog this for 2 weeks but kept letting it slip but hey here we are…

So why could facebook be a racist…

At the start of August 2007 a load of massive advertisers in the UK pulled out of using facebook to promote their products..

2 of the big players in the uk that end advertising are Vodafone and Virgin…

So why? Whats this all about ?

Well over in the UK we have a “group” / “party” called the BNP (Britsh national party) 

The BPN is a very “Right-wing group”

Here is a quote from vodafone

“Our public policy principles state that we do not make political donations or support particular party political interests and therefore to avoid misunderstandings we immediately withdrew our advertising as soon as this was brought to our attention.”

Ouch that’s got to hurt!

Quote taken stright form the wiredblog:

Answers.com CEO Bob Rosenschein revealed this week that his site lost 28% of its traffic in a week, thanks to a change in Google’s indexing algorithms. That news should send a shiver down the spine of anyone who depends on the search engine for traffic and revenue.

The wired blog post includes graphs of the drop in alexa and technorita..

Could its be the selling of text links ? hmmm …
