10/9/2008 I apologize in advance for the bad grammar, but that's really how nofollow links talk, so it's not my real fault. I'm just trying to "keep it real". It 'aint nothing but link love baby I was looking at the stats of one of my blogs and in the "came from" section of the report I saw a referral from another blog. I was cur...
9/29/2008 Sure, Adwords is a great tool for any kind of advertiser, from the little fish with a small budget that can really target low cost and specialized keywords squeezing every little bit of clicks they can, to the big white sharks that can afford to buy the all broad terms and live through the stormy seas of low CTRs and sky-high CPCs. But I'd like to tal...
8/5/2008 Hi, and welcome to part III of the ongoing debate "why the h*ll do some SEOmoz profiles have PR and others don't". If you are unfamiliar with this question, you read about parts I and II.As an intro I would like to say that I was ver...
7/17/2008 Ok, don't kill me for bringing google killers again. I am fully aware Google rocks and Google will not be easily killed of by some junior startup, or even by improved Microsoft Live technology. I'm talking about something different here - I'm talking about something obvious that Microsoft could use to overlap Google, using what it does best...
6/16/2008 I've noticed for a while that my profile page on SEOmoz has no Toolbar PR. Actually, I noticed it more since I reached the 100 mozpoints mark - because when you reach 100, the link to the site on your profile page becomes "follow" instead of "nofollow", as you can read here. And it's always great to have a link from such a gre...
5/19/2008 I was reading up on Wired.com, as I do everyday, and I came across what seemed like a fun project called The Big Word Project. What is The Big Word Project?"The Big Word Project is redefining words. Search for your word and link it to your website. Your website is then the new definition. Simple." "...
4/30/2008 Introducing VisualRank When you search for McDonnalds on Google's Image Search, Google won't scan the pictures in its index looking for visual clues linked to McDonnalds. Instead, they do what most other search engines do: It looks at the text surrounding the image itself (caption, paragraph text, titles, etc...)It reads the filename...
3/17/2008 I had asked for an account for some time now, but today the email finally reached my inbox. And I was really excited about seeing what all the hype was about [true knowledge]™! Ps: getting really excited to test out a search engine, must mean I'm in the right job... So what is [true knowledge]™?In simple terms,...
2/4/2008 It had been rumoured for a long (long) time, but the time has finally come, as Microsoft proposed to adquired Yahoo! for roughly $44.6 billion in cash and stockAnd Microsoft isn't shy in saying that it wants Yahoo! to go head-to-head with Google:"Today, the market is increasingly d...
2/1/2008 Should the Mozzers be paid for their posts in YOUmoz?I mean, I love the all comunity free thinking thing, but when you think about it, we are all helping seomoz for free. Our posts end up being indexed in the Search Engines and when people click, they are entering a comercial website, that sells premium memberships. So where does this leave all of the Mozzers out there, that devot...
1/18/2008 Search Engine Land's Danny Sulivan recently issued an apology regarding a post published in SEL where the title read "Get a free link from Wired"For those who don't know what I'm talking about, here's a little recap:Wired has a ...
1/16/2008 When a big client wants to advertise in "search" they probably end up in Google's own portfolio. And it makes perfect sense: why pay more for an adwords campaign when you can just pay for the clicks and have the rest of work done for you, by the same guys that invented the system in the first place! After all, if they can't do it better, who can?Well... you for i...
1/4/2008 One year in Rome, the festival of the Bona Dea ("good goddess") was held at Caesar's house. No men were permitted, but one did manage to enter disguised as a woman, intent in seducing the Caesar's wife Pompeia. He was caught but was later released with no charges. Nonetheless Caesar divorced Pompeia saying that "my wife ought not even to be under suspicion."
5/21/2007 DMeurope has a very interesting article describing how Google might look like in the near future. Google calls its vision - Universal Search. And no, it doesn't mean they are going to index all those weird martian porn sites. Frankly, that would be impossible, even for Google.The US in bi...
