Check The Index


I Just got back from an amazing week's holiday in NZ. I know I usually bring the show to you no matter where I am in the world but last Wednesday I was without bandwidth. I'm ok now though :) I take a look at two sites today. One a viewer review and another is the site of a company that I went skydiving with for the first time whilst in NZ. What a rush! When I looked at the index for both sites, I found some problems that could be easily fixed. These issues when fixed, would have an instant positive impact on rankings. How healthy is your site from Google's perspective? What are you telling Google? Ive also included the vid from my jump filmed by the great people at NZONE.BIZ

Is Google over compensating

Is Google Over Compensating


In keeping with seeing how fast Google Caffeine can rank content, today I have a look at Ustream, a free live webcast service. I wanted to see how fast I could get the title of the webcast ranking in Google. As it is live & Google is trying to index content as soon as it is published, I thought it may like live webcast content. Turns out it does. I also take a look at a viewers site Watch this week's show on YouTube, DailyMotion and Veoh

Whoaaa Caffeine is fast.


Are you having fun with Google Caffeine? What's the fastest you've ranked for a phrase? I did another video on Monday where I had some Caffeine retention issues (WARNING: explicit language) but despite my hand/eye co-ordination challenges, the post still went to no.1 in a couple of minutes. Today I try a slightly more competitive phrase as well as perform an SEO site review for a viewer. In under 5 minutes the SEO related phrase I target ranks on the front page of Google. Find out how.

Google caffeine is incredibly fast



Last week I was impressed that a post got on the front page of Google within 30 mins of publishing. Today in a live demo, I write a blog post and get it to no.1 in under 2 1/2 minutes. Are you blogging yet? Google today also launched its Australia Votes site. It did something similar in 2007. If you know a 15 - 17 year old, Google is giving them a chance to have their say in this election.

jim boot is what the guys over at warcom.com.au are trying to rank for because we went to no.1 for this post http://jimboot.com/alex-hallett for the phrase Alex Hallett. It will be interesting to see if Google caffeine indexes this Joomla blog as fast as the wordpress site.

caffiene indexes fast but at what cost

Caffiene indexes fast but at what cost?


We've all heard that the Google Caffeine update was all about indexing the web in real time. Well yesterday we watched it happen with a blog post I wrote. It appeared on the first page of Google within 30 mins of being published. However the speed of indexing seems to have a side effect of ignoring duplicate content. What does this mean for your own ranking prospects?

Wow! The team found a bunch of blackhat sites

Yesterday Jine & Joel, (not a vaudevillian act) two of our top rankers pointed out some blackhat going on in one of our clients keyword spaces. It turned out that 4 of the top 5 sites for this phrase were doing blackhat. Their pages were riddled with hidden keywords. How do you check if you're up against blackhat? Also I review an insurance site and a travel site.
