Google Mayday Update – Algorhythym changes – Longtail effects

June 21st, 2010 | 2 Comments |

Recently, during the end of April and beginning of May, 2010, Google decided to update their search results and end user experiences, trying to produce a better result for people who search online, which makes them happy of course and maybe click on more ads for Google.

Some people are reporting over the last few weeks, a dramatic loss of traffic, some 80-90% less traffic. While others are reporting no differences from before.

Watch the video below from Matt Cutts, who works at Google, as he explains what Google actually did and how it effects people.

Conan O’Brien Speaking at Google [VIDEO]

May 8th, 2010 | Comments Off |

conan Conan OBrien Speaking at Google [VIDEO] Here is a great video you should watch, make you LOL and then some.

For the social media play – check this out. Conan did not have a twitter account until a few months ago.

As he’ll state in the video, because of 140 characters and 1 tweet he sent out to his followers, he was able to sell out his entire live comedy tour WITHOUT ADVERTISING.

And ya…. his fame and the fact that millions follow him helped, but imagine sending 1 tweet and then selling out of all your products with no money to spend on any advertising!

So, I like Conan’s dry humor, enjoy the video, watch it all the way through.

Allows users to make comments on anything they see on the web, whether it’s your websites or someone elses in a sidebar comment tool that Google controls.
Allows Google to spider these comments in the Sidewiki and show them as SERP’s, that link to THIER links, not yours in the search results pages. (see examples below)
Allows anyone to spam the heck outa the sidewiki until someone notices it and then reports abuse.
Allows people to knock your brand or products without you controlling the content.
Allows people to steer people off your site to THEIR site, by using sly comments to entice readers to go elsewhere to get a similar product or "better" product.
