Google Closes the City Pages

A recent change that the most popular search engine Google has incorporated is shutting down of its city pages. It is a known fact that Google Places is changing to Google + Local and this step is in the same direction. These city pages were a great help to business as well as the visitor as they showed the “recommended places”. It was easier for the users to share their experience and visit the places. The spokesperson from Google has in a report specified that earlier there were separate pages for separate locations but now they are streamlined into one page. The changes made by Google would certainly have an impact on the reach to local business and visitors.

This way Google is trying to streamline the pages in its new feature where all the locations would be on one page. There are various opinions about the changes made by Google. Many changes have been made by Google in recent days and new features have taken the place of older ones. Another aspect of this change is that Google Offers no longer feature on any of the pages earlier they were found on the local pages and were liked by visitors. Google has not specified as yet where one can find these Google offers.

Yahoo witnesses consistent fall in number of users

With the increase in on the use and dependence on the internet many sites are in competition to one another. If we talk about last ten years, there is a tremendous change and updating on these sites as the demand of internet users is ever increasing. The concept of mailing, chat, and internet surfing took wings with the very famous browser that is Yahoo. The internet cafes were full of people who would just visit this search engine to check their Yahoo accounts. As time passed the number of visitors for Yahoo decreased at a very fast rate. People hardly chat on Yahoo messenger any more as well.

It’s not that this downfall is new but this is a continuous process with little improvements en route. This downfall increased when the Gmail came into picture. Timely measures were taken and changes were made on Yahoo so that at least the present users do not switch to others but in vain. It’s not that Yahoo doesn’t have a market hold rather this was the first web which made people more familiar with internet and chats. Thus experts across the globe feel that there is an urgent need to bring the necessary changes on this web as people do appreciate Yahoo. So it has a good market image but market hold is lacking. In the meantime, Google is rapidly increasing its user base and has left Yahoo and Bing far behind. Still, Yahoo and Bing have considerable presence and in internet marketing as well as search engine optimization, one cannot ignore these two.

Google releases EMD Update

Google rolled out a new filter called ‘EMD update’ previous week. Google released such update, in order to ensure that websites featuring poor-quality content doesn’t find its place in the search results of the Google. There are numerous websites who feature search terms on their domain names.

This newly introduced EMD filter bears a striking resemblance to the Panda update, in terms of functionality & like Panda, this feature will also be renewed on a periodical basis. There are few websites which lack content and then there are few websites that display the plagiarized content thus, EMD will be trapping these poor-quality sites which are ‘in between’ above mentioned two things. Also website tries to get an edge in search results following a search keyword similar domain name.

However, there are people who have purchased relevant domains in order to enhance the ranking of a site & they have also ensured quality content for their sites. So EMD doesn’t go after them since it only targets sites featuring low-quality content. Though Panda was meant for catching hold of the websites displaying low-quality but perhaps it was not producing a desired result that is why Google thought to come up with altogether a different EMD filter.

Google runs various filters at different times like Panda, Penguin, EMD, Top Heavy, Pirate, etc. It is like, once a filter is introduced, it is being revised frequently so that it can grab hold of those sites which didn’t get caught by filters earlier.

Pinterest beats Yahoo in driving traffic, Google remains at numero uno position

Pinterest is the new traffic source on the internet that is capturing the attention of web masters across the globe. It is a form of social photo, videos and other objects sharing website that allows users to manage their collection. It is in the form of a pin board. This was launched in 2009. Since its launch, it has attracted number of users. It has different categories where one can pin his/her images that one likes not only this but you can easily follow your friends as it as inbuilt social media and social networking features.

Pinterest has no doubt become a strong medium through which renowned companies are advertising themselves to attract more and more traffic. Recent survey also confirmed the same; Pinterest has taken the lead on Yahoo and has become the fourth traffic source. Although Google is leading the chart. Pinterest is the newer and trendy option where one can store pictures. Companies have taken the advantage of the same to advertise and stylize their products. Women’s apparels, food and drinks are the most commonly advertised things on Pinterest and the site is very popular among women. The picturesque description gives an edge over the written style and surely attracts more attention. Pinterest would become popular in future and would capture more users.

It is BayTech Web Design that can help unleash the true potential of Pinterest in attracting traffic for your website.

Tech Blogs not too techie as they skip authorship

The findings of a recent survey are not only intriguing but surprising as well. According to the study results, out of 100 tech blogs only 9 percent do implement the ‘rel=author’ authorship. To be more precise, only 9 percent of tech blogs have implemented the feature of rel=author in a proper manner by adding the tag towards their websites and also by pointing to Google + account of author. Out of 100 technology blogs that were surveyed, only 3 percent have implemented the feature of rel=author in an incomplete manner that means they didn't attach link to the Google + account of author and 88 percent of tech blog chose to stay away from this feature that means they have not implemented this feature at all. This is really surprising especially at a time when everybody has realized that a human face right below the search result has more chances of being clicked and read than the normal search result.

This is really stunning revelation because these tech blogs are supposed to know about rel=author feature and another thing is that this feature facilitates increase in click via rate from search results of Google to their respective websites. Naturally, a higher click via rate facilitates further ad impressions, which in turn leads to the increase in the revenues of these tech blogs. Generally it has been witnessed that implementation of authorship leads to click increment via rate through 30 percent to almost 150 percent or higher.

SEO and Social Media are two sides of a coin – they go best, together

When it comes to internet marketing tools then both search engine optimization and social media marketing come into one picture. However, one question often bothers even the experts in this field. That question is, between SEO and Social Media, which one is comparatively more powerful marketing tool?

Where at one side, SEO has always remained one of the most influential tools; on another side social media has literally changed the manner in which people do businesses. If we take a glance on statistical figures then 44% online shoppers opted for search engines in order to search for branded products while the usage of social media witnessed a sharp rise in graph within 6 years and now the usage of social media, accounts for 356%.

There are no qualms that it is an extremely difficult thing to decide. One is better between the two but a recent study did make an effort and tried to bring forward the benefits and drawbacks of using SEO and Social media, respectively. It concluded that SEO and social media are the two sides of a coin and these together make a coin worth it. The study also shows the ways to deliver better results using SEO and social media.

No matter which you prioritize for your company, there is a time for both SEO and social media for them to work together, too. However, if we look carefully then we would realize that both SEO and Social media do complement each other because where SEO is the backbone of e-marketing tools, Social media has become the need of the hour.

Facebook Questions ‘missing’ somebody find it

After gaining an inspiration from Yahoo Q&A, leader of social networking website, Facebook tried to follow the footsteps of Yahoo by launching Facebook Questions but it appears that this effort didn’t bear any fruit. Few people did try to figure out whether Facebook Questions still exists somewhere on the website or not and to their surprise, they didn’t find Facebook Questions anywhere.

If you are mistaking this different app with an option of ‘Ask Question’ then please don’t. The option of ‘Ask Question’ is still very much there on the website under the status box but here we are talking about an altogether different app called ‘Facebook Questions’, which was released two years back. It was launched in a limited beta version and users were able to access this version at facebook.com/?sk=questions. However, the URL was changed to facebook.com/questions after this app was made available to the users of Facebook, way back in March 2011.

At present, these two URL’s have been redirected to the News Feed but the second URL just shows poll questions and now no ‘Questions’ app is visible in the full Apps list. Along those same lines, no Facebook Questions is seen in the Apps section of Facebook under their App Center. When a mail regarding the same was forwarded to the communication team of Facebook all they did was respond with a reply that they are looking into the matter. It is quite apparent that this effort by Facebook didn’t produce the desired result and hence Facebook consider withdrawing it from its website.

Google gets 32% increase in revenue, Paid Clicks gain by 42%

It seems that Google and the internet are synonymous. For every answer, for every query, you have Google result – the God of Internet. In the second quarter this year, Google revenue is up by 32 percent compared to the earnings in 2011 Q2.

The greatest contributor to the revenue boost is the paid clicks. There is a year on year increase of 42 percent in the paid click in Q2 this year. Even with this comparison, there has been only a slight 1 percent increase compared to the first quarter this year. Whereas the net Google income in this period remained $2.79 billion and this includes the revenue out of the Motorola Mobility as well. MXYF7PKBVT2Y

Save your website from ‘Block all www.--------.com results’ on Google

There are websites we visit and revisit and there are website we want to avoid in the search results. For this Google gives every user the privilege to block results from a particular website. Though the blocked URLs have no immediate effect on the overall performance of the website, it is in the long run that might affect the website. As Google gives high priority to what people search, it is important that there is not a single person on the web who blocks your website on Google search results.

Suppose a person searches for ‘Web Design and Development Company’, he gets a lot a searches. He visits the first website listed but fails to get the required information or results and he then wants to punish the website for putting up fake stuff he can press ‘Block all www.*******.com results’ after he comes back on the search results page. However, individual blocking has no impact on a website, it is said that bulk blocking in exceeding numbers could impact the search trend for a particular website. Since blocking the results from a particular website is only an individual activity, it cannot have a mass blocking effect on all users therefore it rarely affects a website in the search results. The possible triggers of ‘Block all www.*****.com results’ could be caused by site design, content or in most of the cases it is individual preference. Keeping all things including content, web design and user friendliness of the website in shape; one can avoid the website from getting too many ‘Block all www.*****.com results’ from users.

Google Bans Guns, Ammunition and Knives Listings from Google Shopping

Google has become the touchstone for a website’s performance. If it is performing on it well, it is a good website, if not, it’s of no use. Reason for this is simple. Majority of people search on Google and being prominently on Google means that the investments on the website are justified. But, Google too is evolving itself and has recently banned all the guns, ammunition and knives related listings from Google shopping. It is said that Google is conveying this information to the merchants about the new development and is not inviting any more weapon related listings on Google shopping.

However, Google continues to have the AdWords ads on the shopping results pages for these keywords or their combinations. This is because Google is updating its AdWords policy soon. Another important thing to witness is that the at the top right page there is a Shopping search box that searches other products, thus Google is promoting shoppers to search for some other products if there are no search results for a particular product name. 

The Google ban on arms and ammunition searches seems not to infringe with the rights of the US citizens to keep arms and is in no way against the constitution. Detailing about the new policy, Google has said to have in its letter sent to the banned products merchants reportedly said that it disallows products that are incompatible with the values it holds. Meanwhile, the ban on listing of products on Google has not been criticized as Google can decide what it wants to list and what not. It is also found the recent changes in the Google Shopping listing will be affecting the searches as well but it is up to Google what it lists and what is denies.

Yahoo Answers has 300 million questions

People seem to be desperate about things on the internet and are posting their queries and possible answers on Yahoo Answers in large numbers. As per the latest buzz, since 2005 over 300 million questions have been asked on Yahoo Answers. This impressive figure must have brought slight tremors in Google chambers. But despite this achievement, the activity on Yahoo is slower as compared to Bing and Google. Still people are searching for answers and Yahoo Answers provides them with the solutions. Information about the new milestone achievement by Yahoo also suggests that people across the globe ask two questions and posts six answers to questions on the search engine giant powered answers every second. So the people answering are more than those asking questions.

Is this a strong indicator that Yahoo is getting a good grip these days compared to Google and Bing? Or, is it an indication that that search engine optimization should also focus on Yahoo and Bing in order to get an overall good ranking for websites? Almost all the web promotions target only Google, it is also good to target these other two search engines as there has been an increase of over five percent activity on Bing in US in May 2012 compared to the same month last year. Meanwhile, there has been an increase in activity on Yahoo as well.  It is Baytech Web Design that prepares a comprehensive search engine optimization plan for a website and arrives at a robust plan that makes sure that the website appears prominently on searches for keywords relevant to the site.
