With the updates Google made to their algorithm, more tests prove that they’ve become smarter about filtering spamming sites (you know, the ones who use their keywords 40 times in the same paragraphs) by really looking into the text used.
When you write something, you might refer to it using different words. Let’s say a word […]

Maybe you know this little tool, but maybe you don’t. What it does is, it shows you how Yahoo considers your site in the rankings. This can be a fun tool, but I already see how it can be a good SEO tool.

This is, in my opinion one of the most controversial topics for Search engine optimizers. The “Google Sandbox”. Some say it’s there, some say it’s a myth.
Quick recap for those who have no idea what Google sandbox is believed to be. (People believe that Google employs a Sandbox effect in their algorithm as new websites […]

As we all know … to rank well on Google and other search engines, you need quality links (well and other 199 different things). But, links are the gold that drives your ranking. The only issue is that Google, most of the time, knows when a link is obtained naturally or when it was paid […]

Call it what you want ….. “Link building, buying advertising, being out there or simply fooling search engines” …. we buy links in directories for almost the same reason. Link building. But do the rules of good keyword-like anchor text link apply there?

It seems that Google does not favor sites that have AdSense ads on that page they want to be ranked for. How often do you see a highly ranked site on Google that has AdSense running on that page?
To me this makes sense. Rarely do I see a good, quality site visited and loved by […]

Yesterday I’ve received an e-mail from one of my subscribers asking me about affiliate links and if Google will value them if the company runs it’s own Affiliate management program. I decided to write a bit about it here…

It’s simple …. just like Google stated. We know what you’re doing.
I won’t make this long but few things to pick up from what was mentioned by the guys at Google is that…
Every update looks to be stricter on links (the ones you buy).
Reciprocal linking can hurt you if Google suspects that your reciprocal links […]
