\nEarlier today Twitter announced that it was bringing a number of new search filters to the site. These include: people, photos, videos, news. There are also “people you follow” and “near you” filters that further refine results. If one were to search for “Super Bowl,” results could then be filtered by those tweets that incorporated […]<\/li>\n

The question posed was: Links from relevant content in article directories — Seen as good or bad? E.g., I link my beauty website from a cosmetic surgery article on […]<\/li>\n
\nI don’t have to build links anymore, and I have never felt so liberated. So free. All the years I spent endless hours trying to help content get discovered — and I didn’t realize I didn’t have to do any of it. Those 163 conference gigs?

According to Reuters Google is (once again) “close to settling a three-year antitrust probe by European regulators after it offered ‘much better’ concessions” to the European Commission (EC).

Yet plaintiffs were also seeking ongoing royalties, which the court has now awarded. […]<\/li>\n

\nDatabase-driven websites are very common in the B2B sector. This is because many companies want to have a catalog of products available on their site for distributors, but it would not be cost-effective to manually build out those pages as they are meant to generate leads, not revenue. Optimizing database-driven B2B sites follows the same […]<\/li>\n
\nGoogle’s head of search spam, Matt Cutts, announced on Twitter earlier this morning that Google has taken action on another “link network” named Buzzea. His tweet read, “Today we’re taking action on a French link network that violates our quality guidelines (Buzzea).” In addition, Matt added that they are working on a German based link […]<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nRecent Headlines From MarTech<\/a>, Our Sister Site Dedicated To Internet Marketing:<\/h2>\n
