Search Engine Strategies

8:52 PM
Last month San Jose was a place to be for all search engine marketing professionals. And they came in thousands to find out about the latest trends in SEO market, Internet advertising, search optimization issues and all related areas. Search Engine Strategies conference was as usual very loud with bright lights and all the companies trying to outdo each other on the exhibition floor. The big fun moments came as we were invited to Mountain View Googleplex for the Fifth annual Google Dance where we had the opportunity to meet with Google engineers and visit Google Labs technology playground area. For more visit the official SES Strategies website.

World Wide Web Origins

6:33 PM
The history of the World Wide Web started just 15 years ago on August 6, 1991 by Sir Tim Berners-Lee. On that date the first web site was built http://info.cern.ch and put online. Later on that day Tim Berners-Lee wrote a post on the alt.hypertext newsgroup introducing his world wide web project to the world. In the original post he said: "The WorldWideWeb (WWW) project aims to allow links to be made to any information anywhere. The address format includes an access method (=namespace), and for most name spaces a hostname and some sort of path. The WWW project was started to allow high energy physicists to share data, news, and documentation. We are very interested in spreading the web to other areas, and having gateway servers for other data. Collaborators welcome!"
The greatest thing is that his idea is available freely, with no patent and no royalties due, so it keeps spreading like a wild fire.

Myths about SEO

7:30 PM
In the recent interview Laura Lippay, SEO Program Manager for Yahoo has been expressing concern about lack of education in the area of search engine optimization techniques. Quite often SEO propaganda headlines does not match with good skills and improved search engine results. Those are her words: "There always seems to be a lot of stuff going around that just does not have real proof to back it up. I do not really believe any of it until I can test it for myself. A lot of site owners, seem to think that all they need to do for SEO is slap a couple of keywords in a browser title and an H1 tag on their page and they will see results. The lack of education of SEOs and non - SEOs alike is disheartening sometimes. We still have a lot of work to do on the education front."

SEO Contest for Charity

6:41 PM
The SEO contest has been announced by the webmaster community forum Webmaster-talk.com. The keyword phrase for the contest is: "retsambew dash klat for Charity" which means "webmaster dash talk" spelled backwords. The end date is Friday 01 September 2006.

Search Party News Article

9:54 PM
Advanet has been mentioned in the Fairfax Business Network article which deals with SEO business in Australia. Three leading search engine marketing companies have been selected by a journalist from the Sydney Morning Herald to provide the advice and opinions about the current state of the Internet marketing game.
The extensive news article covers advice on search friendly aspects of the web design and how to achieve higher placements on search engines. To add some spice to rather technical SEO subject, speed dating company has been chosen as a case study. And for those who want to stay incognito, there are also hints about how to disappear from the search engine results. I guess most of us will want to do just the opposite, so I encourage you to read Coming to the aid of the search party.

SEO and Journalism

11:11 PM
How to give your post or an article search engine friendly title? That is the question which some journalists and bloggers are considering. The New York Times in the recent article This Boring Headline Is Written for Google is elaborating on how to attract search engine spiders and do not bore readers at the same time. It will be a difficult act to balance.
"The news media are gingerly stepping into the field of SEO. It is a booming business, estimated at $1.25 billion in revenue worldwide last year, and projected to more than double this year. SEO seems to be an endless chess game. The optimizer wizards devise some technical trick to outwit the search-engine algorithms that rank the results of a search. The search engines periodically change their algorithms to thwart such self-interested manipulation, and the game starts again."

Online Advertising

8:14 PM
Are you tired of online advertising? Most people would agree that everywhere we look we find so called - efficient targeted online ads, and there are just too many of them. So why if everybody is very tired of all the ads, the website which is full of them and having no other content at all, receives 25,000 unique visitors every single hour? I am referring here to Million Dollar Homepage designed by Alex Tew, a 21-year-old business student from England. If you are not quite tired of online ads you can find his website easily.
