No Follow Hilarity, Anchor Links Now Showing In Webmaster Central....
- You thought you had spam problems. TechCrunch receives 15,000 spam comments. Per day. That no-follow plan really worked well, didn't it, Digerati? ;) Should have invited SEOs along, really....
- Speaking of Techcrunch, they've just appointed a new CEO. The terms "CEO" and "blog" just sound strange together.
- Google Webmaster Central now reporting anchor text phrases. Nice.
- Ex-Microsoft employee, Robert Scoble, thinks Microsoft Search "sucks". Which is kinda obvious.
- What were Ask thinking? Anti-Google campaign backfires.
- Directory of blogs by birth date of the author. Most authors fall in the 20-30 range.
- Should you sell your SEO services on a performance basis? Examination of the pros/cons.
- How Google might decide the quality score of blog postings. Very interesting outbound critera, such as linking out to "quality" bloggers.
- SquidOffers, from Seth Godin. A cross between Digg and Adwords. Interesting. Not a new idea. But interesting.
- Google exec confirms Google are doing phone stuff. But doesn't elaborate.
- GahooYoogle. Yahoo and Google results on a split screen.
- A look at Google's custom built servers. Current estimates put Google's server farm at around 450,000 machines.
- Group interview covering linking. Ask ten SEOs a question, you'll get ten different answers.
- Live Twitter search. What is Twitter, anyway? Huge hype level in the Blogshere.
- Graywolf rants about the excess(es) of search blogging. On the flipside, some people write because of what they get out of it. "How do I know what I think until I see what I say"? Will bloggers stop blogging the day forum posters stop posting? Does participation require an audience? Nice linkbait, though...
- Google invades Poland. There's bound to be some cryptic message in there somewhere, but damned if I can find it. Are Google taking action against all scrapers, or just putting foreign language SEOs on notice?
I also blog daily at V7N...
