Redesigned Google Webmaster Tools available to more users
2009-06-17 12:32:00 In May Google announced a redesign to their Webmaster Tools, but when the first announcement was made the new interface was not available as the default for users visiting the tools, only as a “try the new look Google Webmaster Tools” link once you had signed in. The new Google Webmaster Tools now appear to be the default when logging in. This is a useful development for webmaster as it provides a slightly easier interface for users, making it a little clearer what you can get out of using their tools. When you select one of your websites from your list of sites within the tools you now see a “dashboard” type landing page with a summary of some of the information available, including the keywords which lead to impressions on your site and a summary of any crawl errors on the site. The new design also allows you to see sitemaps which have been submitted by any other people who have access to your site, such as your search engine optimisatio...

Social Media, Web 2.0, and Search Engine Optimisation
2009-06-10 13:28:00 We are getting more and more enquiries and questions surrounding social media, but what is more interesting is the way they are asked e.g. "I want more social media activity, how can you do that for us?". The assumption is that it is worth doing. It is clear that social media is important, but what isn't so clear is why it is important to commercial sites and outfits. My point here is that Twitter, Facebook et al are ubiquitous- company pages and accounts are growing like weeds, but to what end? If it is to promote brand and product then is this a useful vehicle?- are people looking for interactions and some level of personal involvement with a "thing", or as the name itself suggests are they looking for that connection with people. My simpleton approach is very black-and-white, people use social media to connnect and interact with people, companies use it in an attempt to get people to connect and interact with a "thing", a commercial proposition. We are happy to a...

Search Engine Optimisation and Sandboxing
2009-06-09 18:41:00 I've been looking under some SEO rocks and found the neglected sandbox topic. This search was prompted by a question I was asked, along the lines of "will our new site end up in Google's sandbox?". With Google sandboxing I'm sceptical- at least about the factors that may cause it, at most that it is a useful term. Anytime there is a substantial change to a site Google will necessarily re-evaluate that site. More often than not this does have a negative impact on rankings- as a credibility protection measure for Google, so they don't continue to maintain rankings for a site that does not deserve them. If the new site has a fundamentally different intention, with content for a different audience then of course it doesn't deserve to rank the way it used to. However if the intention of the new site is substantially similar to the old then rankings can recover in a matter of weeks, or sooner- there is no timetable. Some webmasters blame sandboxing for their site dying in th...

Search engine newness Yahoo and MSN on keeping up with Google
2009-05-28 19:41:00 With Google releasing lots of new things in the last year, such as the new sitelinks. On top of Google’s new developments Ask have reintroduced Jeeves to help answer people’s questions and Wolfram Alpha is creating a lot of media attention with it’s alternative search methods - So it’s important for the other two main search engines Yahoo and MSN to keep up with the changing times. Yahoo have announced in their official blog that their homepage is currently being tested with a new look which will be more customisable by region to try and make their users happier and liven up their look. Microsoft have announced that Bing will be the new name of their search engine, replacing MSN and Live search. The name of the search engine revamp from Microsoft had been tipped to be Kumo but now it seems certain that the new search engine will be called Bing.com and will go live on 3 June. Mircrsoft are claiming that their new Bing search en...

Important SEO Considerations - are you comparing like with like?
2009-05-21 12:13:00 I was reading Pete’s blog on the importance of time when performing SEO on your website, and it reminded me of one of the questions we frequently get asked by some of our clients, relating to other websites. It is tempting to look at one of your friends’ websites or the website of yor competitors and think “well they got a ranking for this keyword really quickly – so I should too”. However there are so many factors which influence how quickly the search engine optimisation of a website leads to rankings that so often these comparisons aren’t fair. For example a website which has been established since 1999 and have a large number of inbound links will have a greater reputation than a website established in 2008 with a smaller number of inbound links. So if you were saying “well I know they starting chasing X keyword 3 months ago and are now in the top 10” this won’t necessarily mean you will also get into the top ...

Wolfram Alpha - What does it mean for Search Engine Optimisation?
2009-05-18 15:46:00 There has been a lot of high profile media buzz about the launch of a new "search engine" Wolfram|Alpha in the build up to its launch today, and this is something that Emily touched upon a few weeks ago when looking at new search engines coming onto the market. Wolfram|Alpha refer to themselves as a computational knowledge machine rather than "search engine" as is being said in a lot of the publicity around it. Although you enter a search query into it Wolfram|Alpha in much the same way as a "normal" search engine, it is there that the similarity ends. Traditional search engines index content, and through the use of an algorithm, determine which pages of content they have indexed are the most relevant results to the search query entered. There are all kinds of factors that determine a pages placement, such as Page Titles, Descriptions and other on page factors, as well as a large proportion of relevancy determined by the number of links and the words used in those links to ...

Search Engine Optimisation: Why it has to be done
2008-06-04 07:13:00 By: Allan Goldsmith E-commerce is a cut throat business. You have to arm yourself with the proper know-how and the tools to make your site just that bit more interesting and informative. Each day, more and more sites are clambering to optimise in their website rankings and if you lose your guard, you may just get trampled on and be left out in the cold like so many other failed e-commerce sites. Search Engine Optimisation or SEO is a term widely used today by many e-commerce sites. Since the beginning of the internet, search engines have been the most widely used internet tool to find the product, service or information required. Most people that use search engines use only the ten top search results in the first page. Making it to the first page, more so to the top three is the peak of a sites success in search engine optimisation. You are much more likely to be clicked on when you rank high. The more traffic for your site, the more business you rake in. But, it is essential to gra...

Because of this, search engine optimisation has become an increasingly popular form of advertising for a wide variety of companies. As the majority of internet users regularly use search engines to find information on the internet, it is unsurprising that an entire industry has been built up around promoting sites to return better search results. The current estimate is that there are four billion web pages on the internet that are open to public viewing.

Here is a Quick Guide to Local Search Engine Optimisation in the UK
2008-01-31 15:51:00 As our Managing Director, Matt Hopkins said the other day "Local search is the Next Big Thing". The curious thing is that whilst everyone agrees it seems to be a slow burn and not a quick one. Back in July it was reported that the majority of searches have local intent and then in August that local search is growing faster than traditional search. The strange thing is that despite Google's foray into mobile search offerings and Yahoo's Sponsored Local Search listing availability, small business owners in the UK are still not quite catching on that they can use the internet to promote a business locally. Still, as I recently pointed out optimising now will get you ahead of the competition. Local searches are not competitive in the same way as the big terms, and the visitors will be highly targeted. Search engines are getting better all the time at targeting locally, whether you call it personalised search or whatever. Apart from the odd hiccup, such as the Google ...

A Little Often Goes a Long way WIth Search Engine Optimisation
2007-11-22 14:36:00 When was the last time you updated or added new content to your website? Yesterday? Last week? Last Month? NEVER!I hope it is not the later, but don't worry if it is you can change that from now.Search Engine Optimisation Tip - Did you know that many search engines check to see when you last updated your site and use that as a gauge as to whether your site is up to date and relevant - the logic here is that a site that has been update in the last month is going to be more relevant that a site that has not been updated for over a year.So what to do about this. Well assuming you have access to edit and add content to your website (either via FTP or through a Content Management System) you should go in an make sure that the information on your website is up to date. It is? well start adding some content - Make it a once a week habit (once a day if you can really spare the time).There is another added bonus of doing this - over time you will be building your website so it could have po...
