| Link Page Protocol Chas 07:33:21 |
| | As previously discussed in Looking For Links post I have been working
on adding external links to my website and am now trying to determine
if Googlebots prefer external links to be opened in "SAME PAGE" or is
link to a "NEW PAGE" acceptable (which I would prefer) ?
Would appreciate feedback on this topic to continue my SERP education.
Thanks, Chas

| Google Delivers Different Results Guest 07:15:10 |
| | I have a website for a unique word it was #1 on Google, MSN and Yahoo.
Then I checked it from my house, it's still #1 for MSN and Yahoo.
But it's completely gone from Google.
Even when I put in the http://example.com
Nothing came up. So then I went to work and tried and there it is #1 on
Google. So I tried it from a friend who has Comcast high speed, and the
library which has a T1 line. Again I went home and it was number 1
So I tried it with my dial up Webtv. Nothing is coming back on Google. I
have dial up MSN for my computer. Nothing there for Google.
Now WebTv is owned by MSN
I am assuming it's different data centers, but it's odd how the two MSN
owned dial ups nothing comes up.
Is this unusual? Just wondering

| | Bill,
I sent you an email just now. Wanted to let you know so this time it
wouldn't be hidden in all the rest of them and you can look for it. It is
better than posting the info here.

| The Search Works makes record losses Tacila 22:44:36 |
| | Hiya,
This will give some of us heart and hope. It's hard running a web
design firm and offer SEO services and make a profit. You really have
to offer SEO or all your work will go to your competitors. SEO takes so
much time and is so hit-and-miss it is really hard to do it and do it
profitably.
I was checking the latest SEO news and found this ->
http://alicat.newsvine.com/_news/2006/08/06/314487-big-money-for-a-record-loss-maker-the-search-works-doesnt-it
It looks like The Search Works can't do this either. They struggle to
make that profit and offer SEO. The article itself describes why/if
people might still want to buy the company and reference
http://www.realbusiness.co.uk/Default.aspx?ChannelID=3213&loc=rb for
the stats.
If The Search Works can't get their biz model right then no wonder I
find it hard!

| Is Google loosing sitemaps? Borek 22:22:41 |

Out of curiosity I have entered one of my domains and was surprised with a

I was sure there is properly working sitemap so I logged to the Google
sitemaps - and lo, three sitemaps for three different sites were
submitted, none is present right now. Sitemaps were fetched by G last time
about mid-July, three weeks ago. No idea what happened, the only thing I
am sure about is - I have not deleted sitemaps, even accidentally, as I
have not logged to sitemaps account for many weeks. Not to mention the
fact that I was not at home at the time.
You all better check you logs - is it only my isolated problem, or is it
some new Google bug? (err... feature?)
Best,

| What Is The Script Code Where Website Shows Search Engine Keyword Typed? Zennie Abraham 18:07:51 |
| | I've noticed that if I type a certain keyword in a search engine like
Google, depending on that keyword, the first website that comes up
contains exactly that keyword, sometimes even if the site itself isn't
relevant to the keyword.
Does anyone know the script code for that? I'm sure it's around as
this happens too many times.
Thanks.

| Letters of Apology Criteria Canadafred 16:21:15 |
| | Your letters of apology will be well-crafted, worthy of being content
quality should you ever attempt to ruin my career again. Your letters
will CLEARLY indicate that you pre-judged me based on flimsy data
derived from your SEO intuitiveness skills and that your malicious
attack at my integrity was what you once thought was in the best
interest of the SEO community. Finally, you must somehow convince the
readers that you are sincere, as I reserve the right to use your
letters of apology as content to demonstrate when you get out of line,
to show the innocent your history of bad judgment in the SEO community.
This will undoubtedly stop you from ever doing this again to anyone
else in this SEO circle.
You are in check. If you have a desperation move or have devised yet
another, let it show itself now. Otherwise, capitulate.

| optimizing dynamic pages Vegas-real-estate-kid 11:35:14 |
| | Hey yawl -
I have tried to do something to give me an advantage in the ultra
competitive online real estate market. Before I tell you my efforts I
first have to give you a little insight to the industry.
All real estate listings, homes for sale, are electronically reported
to the regions local MLS (multiple listing service.) This provides one
central database for realtors to search for listings for their clients.
It also now allows for brokers to display each others listings on the
web, (use to be illegal)
So, every Tom agent is displaying dynamic pages of all listings on
their sites. The problem is that the engines dont index the pages
because they always have a dynamic url like
http://domain.com/htm?state=NV&city=Las%20Vegas&hometypes[]=1
So we tried to create more static url's and incorporate some of the key
phrases into it. For example, if a consumer views a property over 1
million the words luxury home are added to the url. Here is an
example,
http://www.summerlin-las-vegas-real-estate.com/Red-Rock-Country-Club/luxury-home/498913.reml?search=08aaa3bbecf0c708d5bf578cf440f2ba&
The problem is that this has given me zero results. The pages still do
not get indexed. There are plenty of internal links leading to these
dynamic pages, that stay current for an average of 2 months, but still
no luck.
Any suggestions on how to get these to count as content? There are
literally thousands of them so to find a way to get them indexed means
the gold medal.

| Ebaynational Scooter 01:27:23 |
| | Speaking of no shame, self advertising... The all new
http://www.ebaynational.com Free Photo Classified Ads website , which
is in no way affiliated with the ever popular eBay (auctions web-site).
Ebaynational provides sellers and consumers a place to connect via Free
and Featured photo ads online. There is a submission upload center, and
the site features search technology that can connect buyer and seller
interests both nationally and locally (your town and state) by
category. New and used items are accepted. Retailers are also welcome
to list sales from their local chains. Whether it's new, used, or the
equivalent of an onLine garage sale, you can obtain price comparisons
in a Buy Now format as provided by the actual sellers of any listed
items on a per category basis, and respond first hand to sellers right
then and there. What else is new? The Ebaynational Resource Directory,
of course. Private contact (anti-spambot) email response system in
place. Basically an onLine ordering system with Buy it Now buttons and
Website promotion to boot. There are even categories for singles ads.
Not to mention categorical reviews for practically everything that is
bought and sold under the sun. Ebaynational includes the optional
Content pages for advertisers with featured ads. Content pages and
seller websites are linked with search results. Ebaynational provides a
free wheel for creative layout on content pages among those who know a
little html/web design and development. Although, knowledge of web
design is not necessary to produce an exceptional layout for your sale
- just type it in and Ebaynational does the rest! For pics and layouts,
Make An Offer buttons and buyer buttons galore with extendable reviews
on site to promote further sales online, here we are. The concepts are
simplistic as well as user friendly, with big, bold, colorful ads that
compliment the all around aethstetically pleasing site. Even I place
ads on Ebaynational from time to time, and recommend this small but
growing site for further review. Last but not least, there is a place
for webmasters to obtain reciprocal link exchanges for their website in
the Resource Directory (a Free Service). Thank you!

Quick question about the page above bill.
"There's a growing body of evidence to suggest that pages that
correctly validate will rank higher than similar pages that don't."
Would you care to show a little of this growing evidence?
Also this-
"Validation will give you cleaner, faster, quicker-downloading pages
that the search engines will love."
Is poorly worded, since you can quite easily create a monster page
filled with countless useless tags that validates and take a user on
dial up quite sometime to download. Validation per se does not give
"cleaner, faster, quicker-downloading pages that the search engines
will love".

| NEWBIE ALERT: Where should I define the keywords for my site Marcus 00:54:47 |
| | I have read that the HTML "keyword" tag is not used by search engines
that much nowadays. What does this mean? It seems like I should define
my keywords elsewhere then, but where and how?
Do I do this in HTML or do I type my keywords directly in some search
engine facility?
I have started reading a lot about SEO, but I can not use anything of
what I learn until I know how to define my keywords!
please help!!

| Opinions on custom 404 pages Glenn - USAEyes . org 21:54:13 |
| | It seems that a custom 404 page would make the website user's
experience more productive on those occasions when a link is outdated
or a URL is inaccurately typed.
What affect, if any, does a custom 404 page with .htaccess redirect
have on search engine optimization? What effect would a custom 404
page have on the Google Webmaster Tools (formerly SiteMaps) reporting?

| Advice on Natural Language Search Guest 17:47:36 |
| | Hi all,
I'm developing a location-based search engine for a few New York
neighborhoods and was hoping that I could get some advice on natural
language processing. Specifically, I'd like to figure out how to
answers questions like these:
1) "Where can I find the best pizza on the Upper West Side?"
For questions like this one, I would like the engine to respond by
searching for Upper West Side restaurants that users have rated highly
for their pizza.
2) "Where do I go to have fun this weekend?"
With questions like these, I would like the engine to use more
questions to figure out what the user wants to do to prepare (e.g. "Do
you want movie recommendations?" "Do you want restaurant
recommendations?"). Once the user answers a few of these questions, the
engine could give him specific recommendations. ("Yes? Well, here's
where this movie is playing in your neighborhood").
In both cases, the engine has to identify natural language patterns for
questions. It should also be able to process more technical search
query methods.
Anyone who wants more details or would like to give implementation
suggestions can contact me at jbo25@columbia.edu
Thanks,
John

| Search Marketing experiment SEMer 16:59:15 |

Hi guys.
For all those in SEM and SEO, there is a website you will find
interesting. It was launched by 'e-channel'
(http://www.e-channel.com.au), an Australia search engine marketing
company.
'Tuesday Island' (http://www.tuesdayisland.com) is a new hotel
accommodation website. While other travel sites are spending between
$10,000 and $500,000 per month on search engine marketing, Tuesday
Island has no initial advertising budget.
Tuesday Island is a real life experiment in Search Engine Marketing,
the purpose of which is to determine if it is possible for a website to
grow and be successful with no initial advertising budget.
All information about the site, its progress and its SEM strategies
will be made available in monthly reports for those who are interested.
The website is: 'www.tuesdayisland.com/experiment'
(http://www.tuesdayisland.com/experiment).
The site has been up and available on the web since May 1 2006. So far,
Tuesday Island has made $22 profit.

| Printer friendly pages - sort of Duplicate content . . . . ? Sky High 06:35:52 |
| | Hi Group,
I have recently put up a site and Internet Explorer sucks when it comes to
making things "printer friendly" by default. Of course, you can always do
fit to page easily in firefox, and with IE, but the customer wanted
print-friendly by default.
So I shrunk the header graphic size and compressed the margins and made
seperate pages with a link to them from the other page. I guess
Printer-Friendly seems to be an ongoing issue reading various websites.
My question is, I had to do a link to a 'printer-friendly' page for each
page (7 in total) which isn't bad, but wonder how I can get round stopping
them getting penalised as 'duplicate' by the search engines - or won't it
matter ?
Hope you can give some pointers, I'm a bit baffled at the moment.
Thanks everyone!
Best Regards,
Paul

| Looking For Links Chas 01:09:02 |
| | Launched website approx nine months ago and was told by generous and
knowledgeable individuals from this chatroom that external links were
needed to increase Google PR. Got sidetracked with another critical
project but have finally refocused on website and put SERP'S at the top
of priority list.
Is anyone familiar with the PR Prowler software www.prprowler.com to
generate links ?
Would appreciate feedback on same and any other suggestions for
obtaining relevant links. We manufacture / sell high end leathergoods
and if possible would like to obtain links of related caliber.
Thanks, Chas
