Just got forwarded an email from a friend.... This is from an update sent out by Garrett at webpronews I believe.. He is currently at the "search engine strategies" seminar reporting back......
*********************************************** Google Apologizes. There's been a lot of anger and frustration since the Florida Updates. Apparently, Google understands the fact that people's businesses rely on Google results. Craig Nevill-Manning, Google's Senior Research Scientist, said, for what it's worth, "I apologize for the roller coaster. We're aware that changes in the algorithm affect people's livelihoods. We don't make changes lightly." Well, at least that's good to know. Read more statements here. An Exclusive Interview. Yesterday, I caught up with Marissa Mayer, the Director of Consumer Web Products at Google, and asked, ~What should people do if their sites were totally dumped from Google?~ She replied, ~If you dropped in rankings, go back and look at who you linked to and who~s linking to you. If any of these people are using spam techniques, they're the reason your site no longer appears on Google.~ ~Does this mean that the new algorithm somehow measures the ~neighborhood~ you're linked into more highly?~ Smiling, Marissa told me she couldn~t answer that question, because it~s a direct statement about the new Google algorithm. We'll take that as a yes. Looking for ways to boost your Google ranking? Marissa says, "Have unique useful content. Have sitemaps. Make your site easy to reach with a text-based browser. Give your site a hierarchal structure. Have a single domain with mini-sites within, rather than having lots of sites." Usability is a Must! Marissa says, "It's a good idea to design sites that are usable from any browser. That's something that Google may be taking into consideration - your cross-browser compatibility." Check out WebProWorld's Accessibility and Usability Forum for more tips! Will Google Ever Get the Spam Situation Under Control? Greg Boser, president of WebGuerrilla LLC, doesn't think so. He says, "It's sixty engineers versus sixty thousand spammers - I like those odds!"
