- Personalization of Google Results Creates a Huge Advertising Opportunity
Posted by randfishLike 150 million or so other folks, I spent today watching the Superbowl. As a marketer, it's hard not to pay close attention to the advertisements, and this year featured a heavy focus on sending viewers to the web. However, I was a bit surprised that we didn't see anything like 2007's Pontiac advertisement: At the end of the ad, Pontiac invites viewers to "Google" their brand to learn more. This seemed a bit odd in 2007, but today, it would have been a br… - The Elements of an HTML Link
Posted by RobOusbeyLinks. We often talk about why we want them and how to get them, but today I'd like to go back to basics and look at the constituent parts of the HTML code behind them. This is definitely a post for the new SEO, or web-developer looking to expand their experience, but even experienced search marketers may want to comment the nuances of some parts of the humble anchor tag's attributes. Here's a couple of example links; the first is a link to the White House's website, the othe… - Testing How Crawl Priority Works
Posted by mgaleckiThis post was originally in YOUmoz, and was promoted to the main blog because it provides great value and interest to our community. The author's views are entirely his or her own and may not reflect the views of SEOmoz, Inc.A SHORT INTRODUCTION... We all know that the search engine robots more frequently visit popular pages, i.e. those that have the largest number of incoming links, both internal and external ones.

Posted by great scott!Will Critchlow of Distilled (who recently took over SEOmoz's consulting business) is back in Whiteboard studios to help Rand discuss how to Choose an SEO consultant--or any consultant for that matter. Whether you're a consultant yourself, you frequently work with consultants, or you're thinking of outsourcing some work for the very first time, you'll find this week's video worthwhile. Knowing beforehand how the engagement needs to be structured, what you expect to ge… - Getting Started Publishing on Google News
Posted by Sam NiccollsThe New York Times, CNN, and Yahoo News each get more traffic than Google News, but in a given month Google News sends almost a billion clicks to publishers worldwide, which makes it an incredibly compelling syndication platform for sites with newsworthy content. But how do you get articles indexed and ranking in Google News? And how can you get your article snippets to appear in the SERPs for Google web search? In an attempt to answer some of the basic questions around … - Senior Marketers Need Greater Accountability
Posted by randfishI ran across this survey data eMarketer released last week and my heart sank: This first chart looks innocent enough. It's when you look at the next one (from the same report) that things get ugly: As a CEO, an SEO, a web marketer and a participant in social media, this drives me absolutely crazy. The very last item on the list is "conversions, ROI, etc." If your pulse isn't pounding, you might need to cut back on the pharmaceuticals. Absolutely nothing i… - It's a Feeding Frenzy for Keyword-Rich Domains
Posted by MichaelCIt's a well-known fact in the SEO world that Google shows enormous favoritism in its rankings to domain names that contain one or more of the keywords being searched for. If your domain name is a close match to the search keywords all glued together, it's as easy as fishing with dynamite to get on page 1 of the SERPs for that search phrase. While some (like me) might argue (like, against Rand) that it's a flaw in the algorithm, it's not a bug--Google deliberately favors this ki… - The End of Consulting: A New Partnership & Our Focus on Software
Posted by randfishToday I have two very big announcements. First, SEOmoz is exiting the consulting business to focus exclusively on our software model. And, second, we have an expanded partnership with Distilled (new US site: Distilled LLC), who'll be taking over many of our consulting clients and opening offices here in Seattle. I'm going to talk briefly about both of these below, then add detail on why we're so bullish about the SEO software market.

Steve Baker, an engineer in the search quality group at Google, just did a nice post about synonyms on the Google blog.

Lots of people are thinking about ways to help Haiti after their horrible 7.0 earthquake.

- The 'Information' Age
Relevancy is a good thing. It makes search and the world more efficient. Many attempts at relevancy, like search is getting more social, may just create more noise. But computers are getting better at understanding language is a good thing "our measurements show that synonyms affect 70 percent of user searches across the more than 100 languages Google supports." But it seems each increase in relevancy justifies additional increases in irrelevancy to increase monetization. 'Accidental' Hijackin… - Interview with Andrew Shotland
Today I get to interview one of my favorite reads in the SEO blogoshpere, Andrew Shotland. Andrew runs the Local SEO Guide blog and has graciously taken some of his time to share with us his thoughts on Local SEO. 1. You have an enjoyable, albeit unique, writing style. Lots of people write about things worth reading but much of what they write, or how the present it at least, makes it pretty forgettable. How much has your style helped you in acquiring and keeping visitors to your site, landing c… - Mark Cuban's Mahalo Wants Your Blood (And Gets it TOO!)
Mark Cuban recently talked about how search engines and content aggregators are vampires. There is no reason to be indexed in Google. ... You haven’t gotten anything back But he failed to disclose how his Mahalo investment loots content. If Google is a vampire (while sending away billions of Dollars of traffic for free) then what does that make Mahalo (which borrows your titles and abstracts as content to pull search traffic into their ad cluttered pages pages, while placing your content be… - Slow & Steady vs Hype, Crash & Burn
HOPE is perhaps the single most lucrative thing to sell. There are so many people in need of direction, while so few actually want to do the work required to achieve the end goal. Thus many scammers sell the end result up front while glossing over the hard work required to get there. I was over at a friend's house in the bathroom and saw a copy of "Your Infinite Power to be Rich" sitting on the floor & flipped open to a random page...page 102 THE UNIVERSAL BANK A salesman needed an automob… - More PROOF Jason Calacanis is a ____
Publicly Jason claims to be ignorant about SEO because it allows him moral flexibility and makes Google less likely to torch his site (even though he is blatantly violating their search quality guidelines, and has for *years*). But when you look at the sales material that Mahalo pitches to corporations, in the 19 page PDF reads like an à la carte menu of SEO services, rather than sales material from a company ignorant of of SEO. It includes a slide which highlights how well Mahalo Answers qu… - Why Mahalo (and Other Content Scrapers) Render Google's Spam Team Flaccid
I was talking to a friend yesterday who was at a conference where Demand Media's CEO spoke, and he stated that nobody asked the big question: "what if google decides they don't like you anymore?" Then I got thinking about how Google torched Squidoo after Jason Calacanis went on his public campaign to rebrand it as spam. But today under the same level of scrutiny, how is Mahalo (which scrapes millions of 3rd party content listings *without any editorial filter*) not spam? Squidoo at least donate… - Starving Artists in the Age of Cesspool Content
On Hacker News, Melvin, from Web Design Company, had a great analogy on the Mahalo business model Let's use a different industry to illustrate what is happening. Let's say a band named The Beatles records a new album. The local radio station gets a copy of their album and plays their song. The listeners love it so they play it more often, but they don't mention who the band is and on their website, they put up a link to download the song... but without any credits. Their audience grows. They ge… - I Turned the Google Toolbar Off, But It Kept Spying On Me...

To help new advertisers get past many of the gotchas we created the Google AdWords tax calculator - a free utility which highlights many stumbling blocks that catch new AdWords advertise… - All Shades of Gray
