SEO Chat News

| What do a great cook and a great blogger have in common? A lot more than you might think. So grab a quick snack and keep reading for an explanation you can really sink your teeth into. |
| Feed Your Blog`s Readers Well |
| Streamlining and simplifying seem like such good things on paper. Strangely, though, when Google is the one doing the simplifying, and the subject of the process is its privacy policy, most observers get hot under the collar. Why is it so bad when Google does it? |
| Google Simplifies Its Privacy Policies |
| I've only just started writing here at SEO Chat and already I think Ive created a bit of a problem. Ive discussed several techniques, but provided no real way of turning those into a single cohesive strategy. Consider this piece the first part of my correcting this issue. |
| Laying Out An SEO and Traffic Generation Strategy |
| Every marketer knows that anything ?above the fold? will attract the most attention. That's why many advertising-supported websites put lots of ads near the top of the page. Now these ads are attracting some possibly unwanted attention from Google. |
| Google to Penalize For Excessive Above-the-Fold Ads |
| Personalized search makes it much tougher to know your site's exact standings in the SERPs. But you can use some of the recent changes to Google's features to help your pages turn up high in the results, and attract the traffic you're looking for. |
| The Google Search Optimization Truth You Aren`t Being Told |
| Google blacked out its logo earlier this week to protest two bills currently making their way through Congress: the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the Protect IP Act (PIPA). They're not alone; many websites went completely black, displaying statements as to why they oppose these bills and often linking to other sites for more information. But the battle's not over yet. |
| SOPA and PIPA: Bad Ideas |
| The title says that there are 10 steps to being number one on Google. The truth is that there is only method -- and it is an absolute Google domination machine. |
| 10 Steps To Being #1 On Google |
| After 17 years, it comes down to this. In a surprising move, Yahoo co-founder Jerry Yang resigned from his position on the search company's board of directors ? and from all other positions within the company. This resignation is effective immediately. |
| Jerry Yang Resigns from Yahoo |
| Many people have heard of link wheels. These are a somewhat old (and black hat I might add) technique for getting ranked well. The problem is that all too often the advice that I see given regarding how to build them is either poor advice (such as doing it the black hat way) or just plain wrong. Fortunately, there's a way to do them that doesn't require you to go over to the dark side and risk Google penalties. |
| Real Link Wheel Secrets To Top Google Rankings |
| Google must feel very put-upon at times. It tries to help searchers find what they're looking for, and prides itself on not being evil. Lately, though, whenever it does the former, observers accuse it of doing the latter ? even if some other search engine did it first. Such is the case with Google Flight Search. |

If you've read anything at all about the Internet, you'll probably know at least three things: Websites are the most exciting way to interact, personally and business-wise, Online Visibility and Branding through Search Engine Listings can be really, I mean really, complicated for a newcomer/layman and lastly paid Search Engine Listings can get absolutely, outrageously, often unaffordably expensive.

| A recently conducted Search Engine study examined the links users followed on the search engine results page. They found that 42% of users clicked the top result, and 8% of users clicked the second result.This confirms previous studies that the number one result gets many more clicks than all other results. |  | In this study, the researchers did a second test, wherein they secretly swapped the order of the top two search hits. The original number two entry in the search engine's prioritization ended up on top, and the top entry was relegated to second place. Although the search results were different, users still clicked on the top entry 34% of the time and on the second hit 12% of the time.
What does this mean to your web site? |

 In a recent thread in an online forum webmasters discussed the question how long it takes to get listed in Google. A webmaster had submitted a web site with 15 individual pages to Google six months before and he was still not listed in Google although Googlebot visited his web site on a monthly basis.
It's normal Google behavior that a new web site is not listed in the natural (unpaid) search results for about six months. This Google practice is called the Google sandbox .

 Global Resource Systems' campaign manager shows how smart management of your email list can lower the cost of acquisitions to zero. We have known that there are considerable costs incurred for every direct marketing or interactive marketing activity which are usually distributed over the final number of signed up customers for the product or service. This tends to be generally high due to the low percentages being achieved in conversion ratios for the above based campaigns.

 A good way to get insight into the complexity of web design is to compare it to more familiar design disciplines. Like web sites, buildings are designed to support a wide range of experiences, which involves design from the high-level architecture to signage and interior furnishings.
Understanding the compromises made in the design of buildings can help us appreciate the scope of the web design process.
Once we fully appreciate the depth and breadth of the web design problem space and the design discipline that addresses it, I hope our industry will be able to move on from discussing the relative merits of usability science, branding and graphic art, and concentrate on exploring together how we can all work together to do better design. |
