Google talk now open generation – the seo blog news,

Google talk, google’s mservice now offers open generation a new way to communicate with your friends using different IDs,
http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2006/01/open-federation-for-google-talk.html

As google says you are allowed to interact with users with any ID,

on the help page

“We currently support open federation with any service provider that supports the industry standard XMPP protocol. This includes Earthlink, Gizmo Project, Tiscali, Netease, Chikka, MediaRing, and thousands of other ISPs, universities, corporations and individual users. “

What google says

“We’ve just announced open federation for the Google Talk service. What does that mean, you might be wondering. No, it has nothing to do with Star Trek. “Open federation” is technical jargon for when people on different services can talk to each other. For example, email is a federated system. You might have a .edu address and I have a Gmail address, but you and I can still exchange email. The same for the phone: there’s nothing that prevents singular users from talking to Sprint users.”

Some sites were reporting MSN was showing weird search behavior for current seo contest,

Lots of blogs are monitoring the ongoing SEO contest, Some blogs report MSN is showing weird behavior for the search http://search.msn.com/results.aspx?q=V7ndotcom+elursrebmem&FORM=QBRE ,

First many thought MSN is filtering out results for this keywords, Now it revealed its not the case, MSN search looks brilliant than what we think of, It seems msn search first try to understand the meaning of the words, Later if it cant find the words in dictionary, it adds the words to adult search keywords,

Now the search V7ndotcom elursrebmem reveals 41,000 results but we have the following note below the search bar,

Web ResultsPage 1 of 41,216 results containing V7ndotcom elursrebmem (0.06 seconds) (with SafeSearch: Moderate)

You can see the mention safesearch moderate, Usually this gets displayed it adult related keywords are searched,

So is MSN so concerned about po*n in its results, if its true MSN looks great,

sketchy testimonial of a seo company – fake seo testimonail,

We got a link exchange request from a new seo company, when we checked their site we saw something very funny, the testimonial which is listed on every page of their site is totally fake,

It reads,

“My experience with Guide SEO has been exceptional. Our website, www.xyz.com moved from virtually no page ranking and listing on the search engines to being in the top ten in many of our most important keywords. Daily traffic to the site has increased eightfold in just a few months. My experience with Guide SEO has been exceptional. I highly recommend the group.” Salmon.Mc Donald, President, e-learn, inc.

optimized xyz.com>?? look at that, xyz consulting owns xyz.com and they don’t do any seo,

e-learn, INC??? who owns e-learn inc? it belongs to passged.com and definitely salmon.Mc.donald is not the president, So how many seo companies have sketchy testimonials???

Very interesting.

Yahoo site explorer – A nice friend for SEO companies,

Yahoo site explorer is a tool which helps to search a sites backlinks, pages links in yahoo search etc, It gives the data in a more simple form than the normal search, Also it is very quick and is very helpful for major research,

The export feature of yahoo’s site explorer is very helpful in search engine optimization, you can do a linkdomain: search and just export all the data to an excel sheet,

Yahoo’s approach is just opposite to google’s approach,

Google just don’t show proper backlinks for a site, Also their arrangement of site: search is not logical a tall, apart from homepage they don’t arrange all other pages properly,

Yahoo site: arrangement is more logical, it is based on the quality of each and every page listed algorithmically,

Hope continues this great service for a longer time,

Del.icio.ous – A great site to get tagged – massive traffic flow experienced,

Del.icio.ous is a great site, Recently it was acquired by yahoo, it is a bookmark site where people just bookmark when they like a page or a site,

del.icio.us/popular If your site gets into the popular listing of del.icio.us you can expect massive traffic, Plus many other sites just pick up the story, To get into del.icio.us/popular many people around the world have to bookmark it at the same time,

Promoting Adsense the wrong way, – SEO Site using bad tactics to make people click adsense,

We just came across a site which was using adsense, their content triggers firefox ads , when about 90% internet users ( people using internet explorer ) they see this message

We see you’re using Internet Explorer, which is not compatible with this site. We strongly suggest downloading Firefox. We think you’ll like it better:
· Firefox blocks pop-up windows.
· It’s more secure against viruses and spyware.
· It keeps Microsoft from controlling the future of the internet.
· It’s better for web designers and developers.
· Features like tabbed browsing make reading webpages easier.

Click the button on the right to download Firefox. It’s free.

Does search engines use click through data – Search engine optimization tip – May 1st 2005

Click through data is the information collected by the search engines when users click the results for different queries, Search engines always have an extensive log of the click through data for most of their results,

So is click through data used for search engine ranking purposes, NO, search engines dont use click through data for ranking algorithms, In other words they dont use click through data of their results to rank sites for keyword queries,

They do record the data but they use it for quality and auditing purposes, Google has been known to do extensive click through data logging when they do a algorithm update, Yahoo too tracks click through data but they use it only to determine the quality of their search engine results,
