Ok the first thing I always check is server headers, a common mistake is 302ing the home page to an internal page so here is the screen shot of what a server header should look like :

the next thing is Links and ratio of inbound to outbound links something like :

I can see that I have too many internal links, I still like the 100 links on a page rule, so that means I need to do some culling, most probably in my NAV .. any way externals links is next on my list. What is the web master allowing to be followed is normally a good indication if a site is selling links, if a high % of outbounds are a Nofollow and a few and clean links, IMO the clean links are either owned by the web master or are purchased .. Blog’s can be a little different you can see mine here :

that’s my Comments with NoFollow, and my posts Have clean links, I can also see MY V10 tracking script, My Flickr account and my Firewall Script here :

I can also see that I have a few Sphinn links due to the fact that I pull in their RSS, but again I’m happy that Danny and his Mods will keep that feed clean but it’s a good reminder that I’m linking externally !!

This is my single most frustration within Microsoft … Communication !!!

Microsoft launched IE8 today on beta version.

Downloads here http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/ie/ie8/readiness/Install.htm

Whats kind of cool is that one of the core components is the before it installs IE8 it checks for Malware. Fortunately my laptop was clean. Also in the download you will get Silverlight.

Going to have a play with it and see what its got!

The launch of Internet Explorer 8, what cool features are we going to see…

Activity Providers and Webslices :

Activities give users ready access to the online services they care about most from any page they visit, and developers gain an easy way to extend the reach of their online services. It’s as simple as selecting text to get started with an Activity.

I hope they open the the api interface on this so we can port over the Firefox plugins we all love :) … please

George Lucas‘ 3D CGI continuation of the Star Wars saga this summer with a full-length Movie and then will get to see 30-minute “mini-movies” on TNT and Cartoon Network,

This project has been building for years following previous animated Star Wars: Clone Wars series which ran for nearly 2 years. That show also aired on Cartoon Network which covered the time between Episode II: Attack of the Clones and Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, with storylines featuring Count Dooku, Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi.

For me the rule of thumb for domination has always been, if you want localised search market impact you need something like this.

Google.co.uk

Best .UK and a clean UK IP and written in the Queens english

Second .UK and written in the Queens english

Third .COM and a clean UK IP and written in the Queens english

acid test .. do a search in Google.co.uk for the keyword website and then in Google.com.

I get from a UK IP address ..
