Nike.com Pay Attention - Googlebot Cloaking Broken

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

I like Nike.com. I think it is a real neat site with a good amount of sizzle. Lots of videos and fancy flash all over the place. Nothing wrong with that in my opinion. But as far as Google bot is concerned, it’s a no-no. But hey, thats cool, adjustments can be made to make […]

Alexa Attempts To Make Rankings Less Flawed

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

Alexa, the highly skewed web ranking system, announced an overhaul to their ranking algorithm.
We’ve been working hard behind the scenes for several months and are excited to announce that our new Alexa Rankings system is available.
Ok what does this really mean? Alexa for the longest time has had a very flawed means of determining a […]

Google jumping the gun again

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

One thing about me, I’m an early adopter. Anything new out, a new beta, a new product, I want to try it. Not waiting for reviews, I jump right in. So when I go to my igoogle homepage I see a neat new button.

What is this I see,a new feature, oh boy! Without thinking twice […]

Quality inbound links from sponsorships

Friday, April 4th, 2008

I read an article earlier on getting links by sponsoring a charity. I’ve got to say that this seems like a pretty good idea, but it also seems like a backdoor workaround to get some paid links. You’re not getting these links naturally due to the relative content of your site. You had to put […]

Google Suggest showing in regular search box

Wednesday, March 26th, 2008

Over the last few days I have seen a lot of the Google Suggest feature showing up in the regular Google search page.

I’m not too sure how helpful this really is to me. I tend to already know what I want to type before hand, and don’t need their suggestion. But it may be helpful, […]

New York wants to make web tracking illegal

Thursday, March 20th, 2008

An assemblyman for New York today drafted a bill that would make it a crime for web companies to use personal information about consumers for advertising without their consent. Is this guy crazy? What personal information can you get unless it has alrady been offered to you? Other than generic things you can get from […]

Good job New York magazine

Wednesday, February 27th, 2008

That was some nice link bait. It looks like their average of 1 million page views per day was shattered with the release of the Lindsay Lohan photos on Monday, with the site registering more that 40 million page views for the first two days of the week, according to ABC News. Too bad they […]
