The latest algorithm was updated to penalise websites that use forums with negative feedback to boost their rankings. Google's New Algorithm 2010 / 2011 Revealed Many SEO Gurus have attempted to give a rough outline of what the Google algorithm might look like.

Pay Per Click Definition
2008-04-29 06:00:00
What is PPC?Pay-Per-Click is a paid form of advertising, popularized mostly by the "search engine" Overture (formerly GoTo). The concept is fairly simple. Businesses bid to be placed at or near the top of the search results for particular keyword phrases. The bidding is done on a "per-click" basis, meaning that a company pays a specific amount every time the engine sends them a visitor. In addition, the top results on Overture also show up in the results of many of the popular search engines (usually listed as "sponsored" or "featured" results). Google has a similar version of PPC (AdWords Select) that has taken over some of the engines that used to display Overture results (most notably AOL Search).AdvantagesPay-Per-Click campaigns have some advantages over traditional search engine optimization. First of all, they require no changes to a current site's content or look to obtain top positions, just a willingness to pay. Also, the implementation of a pay-per-click campaign is relat...
