Google Ranking Factors - The Top 100
Steve Rubel had tracked down a list of the top 100 factors that affect page ranks. Some of these are blatantly obvious like having your keywords in your domain name and meta tags, but other less obvious ones like putting your keywords in bold and the font size of keywords.
Worth checking out as we [...]
Google Adds RSS Feeds To Its Personalised Homepage
Google have finally added RSS feeds to its personalised homepage and there are rumours floating around that adding your own feed might increase your page rank. I still think MSN’s beta service has the most potential although I’m using Rojo at the moment more as I like the way it aggregates my feeds and clearly [...]
27Jul2005 | Everton | 0 comments | ContinuedSkype Has Revenues Of $6-10 Billion??
CNET reports that some analysts think that Skype has up to $6-10 Billion in revenues.
I think this is absolute nonsense. Skype has been downloaded around 140m times so far. Even if I’m being really bullish and assume that 1% use SkypeOut for all their calls (probably still too high) and that each user [...]
Google Updating Page Ranks?
Lots of sites are reporting that Google seems to be updating Page Ranks and posters on Problogger seem to be agreeing. Maybe this explains why my Page Rank has been so erratic this week. Hopefully I might get bumped up a notch to 5.
Anyone else noticed a change in their page rank this [...]
PubSub Sending More Traffic Than Technorati
I just checked my stats and already PubSub is sending more traffic to my blog than Technorati. My biggest referrers are:
Google
Trackbacks I’ve added to other blog articles
PubSub
Technorati
Other drivers of traffic to my blog are Ask Jeeves, Lycos and Yahoo! I don’t get a lot of unsolicited links from other blogs, (other than Aqute!), [...]
15Jul2005 | Everton | 1 comment | ContinuedLoL Page Rank Back Up To 4
Hmm my Page Rank is back up to 4 - weird. Lets see if my traffic recovers tomorrow.
It’ll be interesting to see if the fall in page rank is the main reason my traffic fell. I’m almost tempted to write no more posts for a while as an experiment to see what happens…..
Google Sandbox?
My traffic has plummeted over the last week and given that my page rank has gone down to zero I think I’ve been put in the Google Sandbox.
Apparently I could be here for up to six months which is annoying as my traffic is about half of what it usually is, and about a third [...]
Earning Milestones
Hmm maybe I should take blogging more seriously. Darren Rowse of Problogger fame cashed more money from his latest monthly adsense cheque, than he made in the whole of 2003.
I recently removed the ads from this blog as too many ads were coming up for blog services and I didn’t want to upset blogware [...]
My page Rank Has Disappeared!
I know I haven’t been posting much recently but that doesn’t explain my pagerank dropping from 4 to 0!
Come on Google - sort it out!
Google Over-stretching Again?
Google have just invested in Current Communications, the largest provider of broadband-over-powerlines in the UK.
I can’t see what expertise Google have to offer in this field. I’m starting to think that Google have too much money to hand and are randomly investing in companies and products. I really think they should just stick to [...]
