And the site is suppose to be designed for the user. How many people shopping on my site happen to have a related website and will happen to point a link at my site even if they think it's the cat's pajamas?
mightbe followed up by flux
The current j3 still looks incomplete to me. I still see supplemental hijacked content outranking the orignal pr6 page content. In fact what is missing is the long tail searches that come from the content and the keyword(s) combination. Google looks very shallow at this point.
yep "if" this update is going against the recp links then how in hells name is the guy with his little ecom site supposed to get ahead! write wonderful articles about how great his Kitchen website is and HOPE people link to him
It seems like this will push the little guy out of G and over to MSN & Y which considering how much better there serps is (IMH)I hope the public start making the move as the serps I'm currently looking at are just favouring ebay & amazon
It makes me wonder if this inst G's plan so they move away from displaying the stores & various affiliate sites in favour of the more authority information platforms so turning G into more research platform, bit like the old Northern Rock days and maybe Y & MSN will become the shopping SE's?
The interesting thing is that many, if not the majority, of these backlinks come from a link network where you agree to show 5 or 6 dynamically generated links on any one page. The links will change completely every time you refresh the page. So the pages that Google has listed as backlinks for this site no longer contain a link to that site.
When you guys talk about link networks are you referring to static link farms or dynamic links as I just rather poorly described?
BTW, I reported this to Google but so far, nothing has happened.
1) The recips have dribbled in over 2 or 3 years.
2) I have a great number of one way links to sites/pages that give added information to people in my field.
Many are imbedded in articles or listed at the end of related articles.
I have a directory of hand picked, non recip, links to excellent sites in my field.
(BTW, this directory ranks ahead of dmoz and Yahoo for the phrase, "widget history directory")
3) There are a number of one way inbound links to my sites.
4) There is no consistency in anchor text as people who have linked to me have just set the links up however they please.
5) All recip linking is to and from related sites.
6) The site is basically content with multiple articles on the topic.
