One critical aspect of highly successful search marketing campaigns is making sure searchers find what they are looking for. I posted this before. To accomplish this, we first need to grab the visitors’ attention, get them to click through our pages, and ensure that the pages’ content matches the search. Whether you are doing SEO...

Rand of SEOmoz.org posted an interesting article on duplicate content issues. He uses the typical blog to show different examples. In a blog, every post can appear in the home page, pagination, archives, feeds, etc. Rand suggests the use of the meta robots tag “no-index”, or the potentially risky use of cloaking, to redirect the...

The interesting discussion between Rand and Jeremy had me thinking about some of the things affiliates do to protect their links. I am talking about link cloaking — the art of hiding links.

First let me thank my beloved reader SEO blog. Thanks to him I got a really nice bump in traffic and several new RSS subscribers. It is really funny how people that don’t know you, start questioning your knowledge, calling you names, etc. I am glad that I don’t take things personal. For me it...

I found an interesting tool via Seobook.com. It exploits a “feature” of current browsers that do not properly partition persistent client-side state information (visited links and caching information) on a per site basis. The tool can identify URLs in your visitor’s browsing history. Aaron suggests this be used to check if your visitors come from...

What do you do when you’re losing organic traffic and you don’t know why?
Custom Python scripts are much more customizable than Excel spreadsheets. This is good news for SEOs — this can lead to optimization opportunities and low-hanging fruit. One way you can use Python to uncover these opportunities is by pairing it with natural language processing. This way, you can match how your audience searches with your...
