    Google Will Look At Your Other Sites When You Get A Manual Action

    That has been known for a long time, more than one example of someone losing multiple sites after listing them all under one WMT account for example. If you run multiple sites in the same sector (targeting same KW's) or are doing anything aggressive to rank them you need to avoid WMT /...

    Consolidating sites with 301 - Your experience?

    Experience hit and miss, the more you 301 the more likely you are to get penalized, short of you not being mega brand redirecting HQ sites I think its pretty well guaranteed you will get zapped before you even hit double figures.

    Guest blogging for SEO just died

    Google have over 90% of UK search, bit hard to get around that if your in a sector where search traffic accounts of a lot of the business. Yeah you can do offline marketing, social, mailshots whatever... but if your in a sector where 60%+ of customers begin their quest on a UK search engine...

    Google update... going after EMD's

    Not sure about this, I thought one of the reasons for rise in clicks on PPC vs the drop in CPC was due to mobile. I think a lot depends on the sector, I can see mobile being good for local services where people are essentially looking for a phone number, but not so good for higher value /...

    G faces legal action from regulators

    G should not be allowed to set up services that rival their advertisers. They take data from PPC and then try to steal the businesses of their own advertisers. Imagine if a TV company did this, setting up their own price comparison sites and then endlessly promoting them with free advertising...

    Pages on Xanga, LiveJournal, and Tumblr - worth it or useless for SE ranking

    They can do, there are two main methods: 1) Built legit sites and leverage the community on those sites (not so much LJ, but squidoo, tumblr you can do things with the community on those) 2) Mass shit slinging with automation tools to make hundreds of them fast and cheap I think the...

    Google Penguin

    Think youve had it TBH (as have I). Google are trying to get rid of: 1) SEO's who they see as parasites reselling their traffc 2) Affilliates who they see as parasites reselling their traffic I can understand that, but it would be nice if they were honest about it and drop the BS about...

    Google Penguin

    These updates are targeting commercial terms which are a small subset of overall search. If you were to ask "what percentage of commercial queries are affected" it would be a big percentage.

    Google update... going after EMD's

    Do you think the removal of host crowding was "for the user"? Host crowding was tested on users a few years ago, people said they preferred it, it was implemented on that basis. It has now been rolled back as part of a wider agenda to incrase CTR on PPC ads. I saw an interesting...

    Google update... going after EMD's

    Absolutely, if they follow the model used for their credit card comparison it will be placed below Adwords listings in a great big block with images. When I search that term I only see 1.5 organic listings above the fold, if three ads were to show in the top slot then there would be no...
