Jux2 – Updated

by

Well it did take a little while by anyone’s standards, the site was sold on Oct-26-05 and today we get the first updates on it. The Jux Meta Search.. did they go all web 2.0 on us… NOPE

They removed the “for sale on ebay” button and stuck adsense on the side

My work here is done .. move along to a real blog now :)

Matt Cutts said on his blog :

Q: Is the update winding down?
A: It’s starting to. Recall that all of Jagger1/2/3 are separate changes. Jagger1 and 2 are done, and you can see what Jagger3 will look like at 66.102.9.104.

well Dam the site I lost didn’t come back …. but at least we know why :)

try search for mattcutts
now try mattcutts.com

you see it can happen to anyone .. if they’re not careful or leave the backdoor open .. :)

Matt you want to explain why this occured ;)

Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines

by

At SES Chicago last year Tim Mayer, who I’m a great fan of, came out with the immortal line about Search Engine Spam, Although Tim DOES NOT condone Search Engine Spam in any form.

Tim’s quote came flooding back to me recently when I saw this Photo of Matt Cutts Googles Search Engine spam killer

Tim Mayers Quote on Search Engine Spam :

“If you’re being entirely organic and going after ‘Viagra,’ it’s like taking a sword to a gunfight. You just aren’t going to rank.”

Psst Matt maybe Next Year go as the Terminator : from Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines ;)

Losing Trust in Adwords

by

I am starting to lose trust in Adwords. I always thought that Adwords should only be bought by people who have a product to sell and that is relevant to the keyword that you are looking for.
I came across this when I was looking for a Plumber in Ripon, also see screen shot, and also for a Builder in Ripon.
How can the whole first page be taken up by Thomson Local when not one of the adwords links actually goes to a page that will tell me about a Plumber or Builder in Ripon.
So either Thomson can go to hell or Google can go to hell, or I’ll just have to use Yahoo.

Link Networks

by

Over at TW this thread caught my eye , Link networks have been around a long time, but it used to be a private little affair .. hehe well not anymore everyone and their brother is building some form of linkage network.. even I have built a public WordPress one .. lol .. whitehat and all things NON seo . But I’m starting to feel that maybe just maybe that google has started to get the measure on linkage.. maybe ;) .. or at least it’s on their todo list

Do No Evil – My Fat Arse

by

Google Webaccelerator : http://webaccelerator.google.com/dc.html

So why is google pushing the MSI down my NECK !!!! on the download page we have this :

<!--
function dl() {
top.location='GoogleWebAcceleratorSetup.msi';
}
-->
 </script>
</head>
<body topmargin="2" onload="dl()" alink="#ff0000" link="#0000cc"
 style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"
 vlink="#800080">

so basically they fire a javascript ON Load at the MSI file…

DaveN say thats Evil !!

Why I love Danny Sullivan

by

Maybe love is a strong word and people will think I’m gay .. but after spending a few quality days with Danny at SES Sweden, I realise that we are so on the same page when it comes to search ..

Google Updates .. man this bites me so hard, I hate names like Florida, Bourbon and Jagger.. reason .. when did Florida update happen, what was the cause and effect ?, how bad was it ? .. anyone..? For a long time I have wanted Search Engines to announce and name updates .. something like Oct 2005 – cat 4 ( where cat 4 is the severity ). A cat 1 is a PR or IBL update.. cat 5 is a complete algo change .. also Google has many little updates .. sometimes 6 or 7 in one month and people miss these all the time .. until the final signal is launched
