Answers to nearly 100 SEO questions that brought people to SEO Theory

Posted by Michael Martinez on May 23, 2007 in Link Theory, SEO Theory, Search Engine Optimization, Supplemental Pages, Web spam

What do you rank for? What queries do people use to actually find your site?

Many Website operators never look at their Web server logs. Buried in all those 1-time visits are a treasure hoard of queries for which you rank poorly but could do better on. If someone is digging into the 3rd page of results to find your content, you have an opportunity to help more people if you emphasize that query a little more.

Ideally you’d want to consolidate your query referrals on base sets of keywords and create pages for each base set. Frankly, I don’t have time for that today. I’m about to go on vacation so consider this your warning that I won’t be making another post to SEO Theory for at least a week.

We’ll start with the questions where, for reasons I cannot explain, people didn’t hang around long. Maybe they’ll find these answers to be more satisfying.

why does google cache some pages frequently and others not as much

Internal PageRank, or so they say. Basically, your page’s crawl frequency is determined by three things:

1. Whether it’s being crawled by Googlebot or Supplemental Googlebot
2. How many links are pointing to it
3. The PageRank of the pages linking to your page

So if you want to know how to get cached more frequently, you need more value-passing links or links which pass more value or both.

define: seo theory

SEO Theory is the study of the techniques and methodologies utilized in search engine optimization.

determine google supplemental results

Does “determine google supplemental results” mean you want to know how to tell which of your pages are in the Supplemental Index? Do you want to know why your pages are in the Supplemental Index? As I point out below, there is no reliable method for listing all the pages from a site that are only in the Supplemental Index.

“jim wilson” seo theory

I am guessing someone wanted to find our SEO Milestones post.

looking at supplemental pages

There is no easy way to look at Supplemental Pages. In fact, I understand it can be quite a painful experience for some people. Your mileage may vary.

seo non-commercial content

There is no inherent SEO value in non-commercial content, if that is what you mean. Or, if you mean, “How do you SEO non-commercial content” you do it the say way as for commercial content.

why does google not show my internal links?

Google might not be showing your internal links because you’re using the link: query operator, which only provides a random sampling of links. You can learn more about what Google is willing to report on your internal links through Webmaster Central.

trustrank theory

The TrustRank theory holds that the Web can be crawled outward from a core set of “trusted” Web sites (manually vetted). The theory was proposed by a group of researchers from Yahoo! and Stanford University. It was later shown (by the same research team) to be extremely flawed. So far as I know, no search engine has actually implemented TrustRank.

meaning of blog in seo

It means pretty much the same thing as outside of SEO. I will presume the query implies a question about whether there is SEO value in blogging. Yes, but no more than the value you get in creating individual Web pages on the same site. Blogging just makes the creation process easier and its RSS distribution mechanism may help get the blog crawled and indexed faster than a traditional Web site (but you can create RSS feeds for non-blog sites).

“how to ” users forum “create fake profiles”

I’ll never turn to the Dark Side! Never! (At least not where you can see me do it.) Sorry, but this blog doesn’t provide Dark Side SEO tips (at least not by intention).

website links categorize organize theory

Gadzoontheit.

how much do directories really help ranking

Depending on the directory, it may help by passing anchor text and a little bit of PageRank, and it may help by establishing trust in your site.

pagestrength fake

Rand Fishkin and I may not be Big Beautiful Friends (or is that Best Buds Forever?) but I’m gonna tell him you’re looking for ways to fake Pagestrength.

signing on to multiple sns sites

Is that like “Saturday Night Sneaky” sites? I would just open a bunch of browser windows, but that’s just me.

how to tell if pagerank is passed

You can’t. Some people think they can. That’s their problem; don’t make it yours.

internal vs. external search terms

I’m sure I’ve never written about internal vs. external search terms, but it’s a fascinating subject. If you do actually offer a site search tool, you may find some interesting differences between your internal referrals and external referrals.

blog links for visibility

Blog links for visibility! Blog links for visibility! Yeah, they help. So do other links. The type of page on which you find a link does not inherently offer any advantage. The best performing link I know about was not on a blog.

supplemental results search operator

The so-called “supplemental results search operator” you’re trying to find returns false positive results. These aren’t the Supplemental Droids you’re looking for.

hakia spiders

Sorry. Haven’t written anything about Hakia Spiders. Wish I knew more about the search engine, but I’m waiting for them to gain market share.

link popularity of site in topical community + seo

There is no SEO value to “link popularity of site in topical community”, although some people think there is.

uncertainty principle for idiots

There is no way to gauge how stupid and idiotic a person may be at the same time. These aren’t the idiots you’re looking for. I’m certain of it.

seo hold old domain registered

No real advantage that I can see.

creating an awareness before launching a product theory

That’s called marketing.

internal lining seo

Sorry. I only practice 1-layer SEO. But perhaps “internal lining SEO” is a typo for “internal linking SEO”. Yes, I’ve written about the value of internal links. Try not to put “home” in your internal link anchor text, no matter how much it keeps you awake at night not to do so.

measuring website competitors

I found one of my Website competitors weighed a good 100 lbs more than me and stood about 6 inches taller than me but he’s a great guy and very helpful in a pinch. I suppose, however, you were looking for ways to determine how competitive your competitors’ sites may be.

How many pages of content do they have?

How many times do they repeat your keywords on their pages?

How many of their backlinks are using those keywords?

That’s a start.

“blog tag” analyse

That does not compute. These aren’t the blog tags you’re looking, but they’re for sale if you want to buy them.

(not set)

So cool. A true Boolean query.

“supplemental results” blog

I cannot imagine writing a supplemental results blog but perhaps you’ll be interested in our Supplemental Results Pages Category.

htaccess www wasting pr

PR was made to be wasted. Real SEOs understand that.

rel=nofollow effect on hilltop

The rel=nofollow effect on hilltop is probably about the same as in the valley. (”Ho, ho, ho!”)

Um, Hilltop is so 2002 (and don’t you dare say “Florida”). Yes, I meant to say 2002. The SEO community still hasn’t figured that one out.

internal link vs external link

It sounds like a wrestling match. There is value to be had in both external and external links. You should not allow them to fight each other. Rather, let them work together.

why directory pages are going into supplemental

Lack of (Internal) PageRank. Basically, Google has pulled the PageRank plug on a huge number of pages and for the past several months we’ve seen a cascading effect where, each time it re-evaluates inbound links, fewer and fewer links are counting for many millions of pages. So with each iteration the main Web Index has lost pages that just don’t have enough PageRank-passing links pointing to them.

While Google has undoubtedly pulled the rug out from under many spam sites, they’ve also deeply hurt their user experience by making it virtually impossible for many authoritative, high quality pages to appear in search results because those pages lack internal PageRank. It’s a stupid approach to solving a problem that Google created. All they really need to do is stop allowing pages (ALL pages) to pass anchor text.

misdirection and illusion theory

Sorry. I don’t do stage magic. But as far as SEO Theory is concerned, misdirection and illusion theory do have a place. I don’t discuss the black hat stuff on this blog. Misdirection is very deep dark-side SEO. Have I ever done it? Yes. Am I talking about cloaking? No.

seo include remote javascript

There is no SEO value in JavaScript of which I am aware. Some JavaScript is occasionally indexed in Google’s search results. I believe that happens on a random basis, perhaps as Google tweaks its parsing or indexing software. If you’re looking for syndicated content you can place on your Web pages in the hope of speed-producing lots of relevant content, don’t use JavaScript content feeds. You’re wasting your time, you wannabe spammer.

empty links seo

Do empty links help SEO? Do empty links hurt SEO? Empty link theory is another dark side trick. The conventional wisdom is that search engines figured that out years ago. Can you still get by with it? Only the SEO Method will tell you for sure: Experiment. Evaluate. Adjust.

hope for google supplemental results

Yes, there is hope for Google supplemental results. Just get some value-passing links from pages in the main Web index. You can buy them from reputable directories, according to Google employee Matt Cutts, because Google accepts the editorial review of the directory operators.

I could probably count on 1 hand how many directories I would give money to, but that’s just my opinion.

“blog farm” matt cutts

So far as I know, Matt Cutts does not participate in any blog farms. I’m not even sure of what people mean by “blog farm”. Is that something like where you raise a lot of little bloglets until they become big fat blogs? If I had to guess, I would say someone thinks that where a group of blogs all link to each other is like a link farm. Let me set your mind at ease: it is a link farm, and there is no need to call it anything else.

The definition of a link farm is pretty simple: Any collection of Web sites where all the member sites link to all the other member sites is a link farm. If you want to call it a “blog farm” just because all the sites are blogs, hey, that’s cool by me. If you have something else in mind, you’re one step ahead of this SEO theorist. Bloggy for you.

value content rich sitemaps

This is clearly a keyword query rather than an SEO question. I don’t offer value content rich sitemaps, for what it is worth. I would guess someone wants to know if there is any value in content-rich sitemaps. I’ll further guess they want to know about XML Sitemaps. I would say no, at this time, there is no value in content-rich sitemaps. I don’t think the search engines are stupid enough to let you pass anchor text to yourself through XML sitemaps. But, hey, maybe they do. I’ll admit that I haven’t tested this idea.

If you’re asking about whether there is value in content-rich HTML sitemaps, well, as long as you don’t let the content get in the way of the user’s experience, then I would say yes. An HTML sitemap is important to visitors who have trouble navigating your site through your regular navigation. If you have a LOT of content, then categorizing it, briefly explaining what it’s used for, etc. is probably a good idea.

google phrase based indexing meta tags

Well, since Google is not yet into phrase-based indexing (sorry, but phrase-based indexing is just another SEO myth borne of too many people looking at search engine patent applications), I would not worry about whether they support phrase-based indexing meta tags. However if they do add some sort of phrase-support meta tags, this query should eventually help you find the information you’re looking for. As far as SEO Theory is concerned (with phrase-based indexing), these aren’t the droids you’re looking for. Try an SEO forum or something.

ways to tell if you have been spammed

Um, well, one of the ways to tell if you’ve been spammed is to count the number of times you’ve received something. Like, I’ve been getting a lot of FDA something or others in email lately. That’s spam. Spam of all types (email, news group, and search engine) is generally defined by volume. Excess. If someone is producing a lot of the same thing, that’s spam.

how to check how many supplemental pages i have

I know there is a bogus test out there that tells you how to check how many supplemental pages you have. It doesn’t work. Why? Because you can have pages in both the Main Web Index and the Supplemental Web index at the same time. They are two separate indexes maintained by two separate crawlers. So any “test” or query that purports to show you only Supplemental Pages doesn’t show you which of those pages are also in the Main Web Index.

Besides which, knowing how many Supplemental Pages you have won’t tell you much of anything anyway. If you know you have ANY Supplemental Pages, you know you need to get some more internal PageRank (hint: you won’t find it by looking at Toolbar PageRank).

sub navigation below content markup

I’m not sure how many submarines navigate below content markup. I’ll go out on a limb and guess that “sub navigation below content markup” has something to do with Cascading Style Sheets. Have you considered just looking at the W3C’s CSS documentation? If you want to know whether there is any SEO value in placing your sub navigation (are you talking about secondary internal navigational links to deeper content?) below your content markup language, I would say not. As long as the links can be found and crawled, where they are placed doesn’t seem to matter.

jerry brassfield bestline products

Don’t get me started (again) on Jerry Brassfield and Bestline Products. Yes, I wrote about the guy. I’m done.

external links versus internal links

Yes, I wrote about external links versus internal links in April. There are pros and cons. Generally speaking, you know more about whether you can trust your internal links than about external links. Some people do wonder if they should nofollow their internal links. I say, if they don’t learn a lesson after doing that, there is no hope for them anyway.

do pages in supplemental index pass pr

No. Pages in the Supplemental Index do not pass PR. I am guessing you mean “Toolbar PR”, which is that stupid little meaningless number from 0..10. Since that is a derivative value, it is not passed by any pages anywhere.

On the outside chance you were actually referring to internal PageRank, my opinion is that pages in supplemental index do NOT pass pr. But you don’t have to take my word for it. If you have pages in the Supplemental Index you’re in a great position to use the SEO Method: Experiment, evaluate, adjust.

seo relevance

Is there such a thing as “seo relevance”? I have no idea, so I can only imagine what a search engine would do with a query like that. On second thought, I don’t want to know.

Search engine optimization should definitely be looking at relevance. Building relevance is at least as important, if not more so, as building trust. Without relevance, all the trust in the Web doesn’t do you much good.

Relevance trumps PageRank every time. Why is that so hard for people to accept?

Now, if you want to know how to build relevance, start with the basics: include the words you want to be relevant for in your document and repeat them as much as your visitors need to see them in order to understand what the document is relevant to. Try not to spam.

It takes practice.

“influence mapping”

Maybe you were looking for where I mentioned influence mapping in an April post about Meta SEO Theory (which, by the way, I won’t write about again since no one is searching on the topic or discussing it anywhere on the Web).

link spam farm analysis

There is something to be said for using whole sentences in search queries. Are you wanting to know how to analyze link spam farms (as opposed to link farms or spam farms), or are you wanting to know if such a thing exists? What, exactly, is a “link spam farm”? Is that where we grow links with our bloglets?

What would be the benefit of analyzing link spam? I would say it tells you how not to build links. What is the benefit of analyzing spam farms? Raise your hand if you can tell me what a spam farm is. I would guess it’s a link farm? Well, if you know what it is, please study it and analyze it and share your findings with the rest of us.

impact of supplemental pages on rankings

The impact of supplemental pages on rankings is complex. First of all, Google is not parsing Supplemental Pages. That is, they don’t index the words on your Supplemental Pages. That is why your Supplemental Pages don’t appear in user queries. Secondly, Supplemental Pages don’t pass value, so they cannot help you link bomb your way to the top. You may want to read more in our Supplemental Pages category. Stop crying, I’ve already told you how to get your pages into the Main Web Index.

do supplemental have pr

Do Supplemental Pages have PR? You know, this is a very interesting question. I believe the answer is YES…and NO. If they don’t pass PR, how can they have it? After all, most of their links are coming from Supplemental Pages. So, here is a Supplemental Page on Matt Cutts’ blog. My little Toolbar checker (which I had to turn on for this test) says the page has no PR.

But I’m not about to sit here and load a hundred Supplemental Pages and test them all for you. You can do that for yourself. Remember the SEO Method: Experiment, evaluate, adjust (I think some people translate that into “ask some idiot fool into doing the work for me so I can justify spending my time on SEO blogs and forums”).

write a memo about want you do good about throwing a perfect pitch

I have to admit to being somewhat surprised to learn that this blog was somehow relevant (prior to this post) to the expression “write a memo about want you do good about throwing a perfect pitch”. Um, is that a baseball question?

redirecting expired pages +404

Redirecting expired pages +404. Yes, I used to do this all the time. It caused me no end of trouble as neither Google nor Yahoo! want to handle 404 redirection intelligently. So I have had to create new content for discontinued URLs just to get them off my back (because 301 redirection doesn’t make old links go away). Do I still recommend that people redirect 404 pages? No, not unless you can use a 301 redirect (in which case, technically, it’s no longer a 404). If you just got rid of content completely, be afraid. Be very, very afraid.

I actually redesigned Xenite’s 404 page to act as a mini-site map to help people see what the most current important content is. Your mileage may vary (and, no, so far as I can tell the search engines don’t crawl the page — I think they do get the 404 code and interpret that correctly as “nothing here, go away”).

query 100 top brands 2007

You should consider yourselves lucky that I’m just trying to respond to 100 random queries. Sorry, I don’t have any information on the 100 top brands of 2007. So why are you clicking through on a link to SEO Theory about the 100 top brands of 2007? This blog is not relevant to 100 top brands 2007.

ask algorithm

Ask algorithm. Yes, I wrote about the old Ask algorithm but I don’t yet have any information (or opinion) on Edison, which (as I understand) is supposedly the algorithm Ask is promoting in their new advertising blitz. So far as I know, Edison has not been rolled out. But maybe Ask did roll it out without telling us, or maybe I missed that memo because was reading a query about baseball.

javascripts link misdirection

More misdirection queries. More JavaScript queries. More link queries. Um, if you’re link building, my advice is not to trust anyone who asks you for an HTML link in exchange for a JavaScript link — unless you get something else in exchange (like visibility). JavaScript links are not necessarily bad to have. They can, in fact, be quite good. I dole out the JavaScript links on my network with some care and consideration even though they don’t (usually) pass anchor text or PageRank. Why do I manage my JavaScript links? Because I do care about whom I link to.

Can JavaScript links be used for misdirection? Sure. Do people get away with it? Sure. Do I recommend you try that? Absolutely not. But if you don’t mind losing all your search engine rankings and all the search engines’ trust, hey, go for it. The SEO Method does after all say: Experiment, evaluate, adjust.

can i re-publish pages in supplemental results using a new url

I see no reason for why you cannot re-publish pages in supplemental results using a new URL. You could do the same thing with pages that are not supplemental. Do you want to know if republishing your supplemental content will get it out of the Supplemental Results Index? He he, there is actually a complex answer to that: YES…NO…MAYBE.

It depends. In most cases, I would not expect it to help. I don’t think you’re addressing the problem correctly if you’re thinking of just abandoning your Supplemental URLs. What did they do to hurt you?

google penalize content remove

Google penalize content remove. If ever I wrote like that on this blog, shoot me. Wait, hold your fire! Okay, are you asking if Google removes penalized content? I don’t often see them do that. After all, it’s penalized but it might still be useful. Some content does get removed as a penalty. But I cannot tell you where the line is drawn and I’m not going to guess.

ickipedia

Yes, it is. Wikipedia is Ickipedia because of the extensive erroneous and biased content it promotes. As a resource, Wikipedia is so unreliable, so untruthful, so filled with propaganda that only a fool would trust it. I use it about once a week and then check their “facts” against other sources.

We live in a sad, sad connected environment.

ask hits algorithm

Well, I think Ask had a pretty good algorithm to begin with. Whether they got so frustrated with it that they actually hit the poor thing, I don’t know. Algorithm abuse normally comes from people like you and me.

However, if you want to know more about IBM’s HITS algorithm, I would recommend you start with this page. HITS (proposed by John Kleinberg) suggests that documents can be categorized by topics and the categories can be analyzed to determine which documents are experts (filled with lots of useful information and pointed to by many other documents in the category, including hubs) and hubs (documents that point to lots of experts and which are in turned pointed to by many experts).

HITS and a subsequent algorithm, CLEVER, have served as the foundation for Ask’s ExpertRank algorithm — which has been pretty darned good, in my opinion. Pity they’re replacing it with Edison.

jerry brassfield

‘Nuff said about Jerry Brassfield.

simulating click + javascript + mozilla

Simulating click + JavaScript + mozilla. Right. I’m sure there is a legitimate use for such knowledge, but “these aren’t the droids you’re looking for”. I don’t write about that kind of stuff on this blog.

do outbound links hurt ranking

Do outbound links hurt ranking? Through the years people have attempted to answer that question. Where Google is concerned the answer can be complicated: YES…and NO. On the one hand, the outbound link anchor text does make a page more relevant to the words in the anchor text. On the other hand, the outbound link is treated by Google as if it is a recommendation. Matt Cutts is often careful to use very common, generic words as outbound link anchor text on his blog when linking even to very reputable, informative sites.

There is only one way to find out if the anchor text will hurt you: try it. You can always change the outbound anchor text later if you conclude that it hurt. You may be surprised by what you see.

optimization or seo “key links”

I think someone wants to know if some links are more important than others. Um, yeah, I would say so. Are you trying to learn if you can find your competitors’ “key links”? Dudes, you need to focus on what you can do for yourselves, not on what other people have done. You can change what you do. You cannot change what other people do. You can lead the way or you can follow. Which do you prefer?

supplemental results+pr

Supplemental Results +PR. That’s a non-sequitur. But let me know what you find after you check those 100 random Supplemental Pages.

wordpress internal backlinks

WordPress internal backlinks help get your blog crawled and indexed. That’s critical to SEO success. If they pass anchor text and PageRank, hey, that’s cream.

“white cheese dip”

Oops. Hoist on my own petard. I think you want this site about White Cheese Dip.

“omitted results” google

Google will occasionally show you only a sampling of its search results and tell you that it has “omitted results” and you can see them if you click on the link. This is, so far as I can determine, the main way Google deals with duplicate content. Although you can get false positives (especially if all your titles and meta descriptions are the same or only differ by one or two words), the Omitted Results thing Google does is a pretty reliable indicator that someone is not differentiating their content enough.

There is no correlation between Omitted Results and Google Supplemental Results.

google penalize templates

Does Google penalize templates? Are you asking if Google penalizes templates? I can tell you they did that a few years ago. I don’t know if they do that now. Maybe. I have some reason to ask the question myself, but I haven’t spent any time and effort trying to find out.

how to estimate monthly visitors before you launch a site

I’d love to see someone accurately estimate monthly visitors before you launch a site. You can do it on a statistical basis, but accuracy is not very good. For example we know that about 90% of people will visit only the 1st 3 links in search results. If you can predict how many people run a query and capture the top 3 positions for that query, you may come close to predicting accurately how many visitors you’ll get … from a search engine.

People find Web sites in many different ways, and once they decide they like a site they often bookmark it. Most of my traffic is DIRECT (not referred by search engines). I wouldn’t trust a pre-launch traffic prediction farther than I could throw it.

sample competitor on-page analysis

I don’t sample competitor on-page analysis if I can avoid doing so. I’m of the opinion that most of my competitors don’t know how to find content on the page, since they are obsessed with links. Maybe I should treat them with more respect.

On a more serious (and less arrogant) note, I would guess this query means that someone wants a tool to use in evaluating on-page factors for their competitors’ sites. While there are a few SEO tools out there that I actually use, I don’t (often) recommend them. But you can go look at Spider-food’s SEO Software and Online Tools forum for some past and current comments and recommendations.

google ai algorithm

Does Google have an AI algorithm? Is someone confusing Microsoft’s AI algorithm with Google’s algorithm? Is this related to something that came out of Google code? Sorry. I cannot help you.

internal linking structure to get backlinks

Internal linking structure to get backlinks. I think someone wants to know how to set up internal links so they count as backlinks. Okay, the simple answer is quick and easy: take one page from your site and embed a link on it to another page on your site (I did that above).

The query implies that someone wants to know if there is any SEO value to your own internal links. The answer is a bit more complicated. First of all, your internal links will help your pages get crawled. Secondly, you can structure your internal links to tell the search engines which of your pages are the most important. Thirdly, you can use your internal link anchor text to tell the search engines what you think your pages are most relevant to.

Does that mean you can trump the search results with lots of content and internal links? No, but it does mean that if you create a lot of useful, relevant content for a specific topic you can help the search engines figure out which of your pages are most valuable to their users.

seo competitve analysis report

Oh, I hate these things. Writing an SEO competitive analysis report is very tedious, very time-consuming, very boring. And you spend as much time trying to manage the user’s expectations as explaining your methodology and justifying your conclusions. The actual reporting part of a good SEO competitive analysis report should probably constitute no more than 1/4 to 1/3 of the entire report.

I’m afraid I don’t have time to explore this topic, but it’s actually a very good one. A lot of people are curious about how other SEOs do it. My reports can extend to about 50 pages, but I’ve had to do a few 1-page summaries.

seo “internal links”

Didn’t we just discuss “SEO ‘internal links’” in one query or another? People are so persistent.

set theory blog may 2007

This is not a set theory blog although I may have mentioned set theory somewhere. I still remember the definition of a set I had to memorize (and use) for several classes in college: a set is any collection of objects together with precise criteria for determining whether (or not) a given object is in the collection.

It actually helps with SEO Theory, too. But that would take considerably more ’splainin’ than I have time for.

steps to reduce supplemental google

The steps to reduce supplemental google results are: get more links from the Main Web Index. And maybe fix your site’s internal navigation structure (if it’s broken).

google broken “may 2007″

Google broken May 2007? Hm. Did Google break anything? Maybe you’re just looking for commiseration from other unfortunate victims of the Google 3.0 (aka Google Searchology) update? Sorry. I have nothing to say at this time. I don’t think it’s broken (yet).

are out bound lnks bad

Are out bound links bad? No. Why would they be, unless you’re linking out to bad Web sites? And if you are linking out to bad Web sites, shame on you! Stop that!

Outbound links are neither bad nor good. The Web is based on linkage. You cannot be part of the Web without links, either inbound or outbound.

latent semantic index doorway pages

Latent semantic index doorway pages. What a query. This is a clear indication of the kind of ignorance that permeates the search optimization community. Latent semantic indexing is a method for analyzing large bodies of documents and determining meaning on the basis of how words are used.

Now, given that Google and other search engines have not implemented latent semantic indexing, why would anyone care about creating doorways for latent semantic indexing?

Still, if I were going to attempt to do it…actually, I wouldn’t. In an LSI Web index, you would theoretically need FEWER doorway pages, and you wouldn’t need to do anything special for them. The search engines would be doing most of the work for you.

google cache deep analysis

I like the idea of Google cache deep analysis. No one, to my knowledge, discusses it openly. At least, I wouldn’t put any faith in what discussions I’ve seen of Google cache analysis. What do you think you can learn from Google’s cache?

seo impact of external hosting

There is no SEO benefit to external hosting. I’m not sure what they mean, really. Do you want to know if hosting your own Website in-house is better or worse than hosting it in a data center somewhere? You’re probably better off putting your server in a commercial NOC, in my opinion. But from a search engine optimization perspective, it makes no difference.

google supplemental results how to tell

Google supplemental results how to tell — tell what? I hate these queries that just tease you. Do you want to talk to Google Supplemental Results? I think the number is 888-SUPPLEM. Choose “1″ for English and “2″ for unknown languages.

internal links showing up under links for google

Yes, internal links showing up under links for Google is perfectly normal. Google shows you a random selection of your backlinks. Don’t be shocked to learn that links from the same site are also backlinks. That’s the way it’s always been.

just because you are unique useful

Just because you are unique useful…what? I could say a lot of things, but what on Earth are you trying to find?

webmaster show pages with internal links

Webmaster show pages with internal links — does that mean you want to know more about Webmaster Central and how it shows pages with internal links? Have you looked in Webmaster Central help?

secret how to get 100000 backlinks

The secret for how to get 100,000 backlinks is very simple: create 100,000 pages on your domain and have those all link home. Hint: Don’t use “home” as your anchor text.

writing new hire announcements

I am not presenting engaged in writing new hire announcements. Nor do I expect to use this blog to announce new hires. Sorry.

funny seo myths

Funny SEO myths. Have you heard the one about how looking at search results tells you what factors are used for ranking? Why is it that SEOs never think to normalize data and make everything else equal before concluding that H1 headings do or do not help?

seo internal linking

SEO internal linking. See SEO Internal Linking. Works like a charm.

how manhy backlinks i need to get 100000 vistors a day
