Internet Librarian blog

October 28, 2005

in Web/Net

I wish I could have gone to Internet Librarian down in Monterey this week, but it was not to be. But a sensational blog report makes me feel like I was there. If you’re a power searcher, you’ll want to read through the coverage.

P.S. I’ll be mostly (entirely?) out-of-touch of email/blog this weekend.

Hi Matt

Thanks for Update Jagger weather reports and feedback during the week.

“P.S. I’ll be mostly (entirely?) out-of-touch of email/blog this weekend.”

Have a great weekend. It has been a busy week indeed :-)

Not to hijack your post, but I find it interesting that you use nofollow tags on the comments, but you don’t use it to the blog you linked to above which is selling text links on their site.

Aww, I guess this weekend I’ll have nothing to look foward to =P, anyways thanks for the updates you have been giving -- they have really helped, and I’m sure made a lot of people’s mind at ease. Enjoy your weekend Matt.

Let us know if you find the Magic Pumpkin…oops. Sorry man, didn’t mean to drop the ball on you.

Here, I’ll give you a hint where to find him and you might change your mind and go to Monterey… http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00009EIQH.01._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

My girlfriend and many of our friends were at the conference, and the reports I got was that it was one of the best library conferences of the year. Of course, spending a week in Monterey is no great hardship either.

As I understand it, the conference will be in Monterey again next year. I’m sure you could convince them to let google host a reception, if not one of the sessions.

I have read articles and feel I have done everything to get Google to index my site.

My site has been up since the 90’s. I just had the site completely redesigned 2 months ago. We created 301 redirects to the new pages. We are still using the old domain. Google doesn’t recognize that I have over 2500 pages in my new site. I have been paying high prices for SEO companies to the tune of over $100,000.00. So far I don’t see much results. From use of keywords, copywriting, backward linking etc. We also created a Google site map for the new site.

I am frustrated as this is livelihood. If there is anything that you could suggest that I am doing wrong I would really appreciate it. I get hit by Googlebot about Googlebot 76 hits for this week.
I have over 141,000 in bound links 19 70 in Google 1970 in hotbot, 121,047 in MSN and 16,400 in Yahoo
I just can’t understand it.

I would appreciate any suggestions

Regards,
Arleen

That looks like it would be a good conference to go to. It is neat to read the blog report about the librarians. I have a frind that is a librarians in Dallas and they seem to be doing more and more online now.

Hi Matt

Subject: LinkExchange Networks

Writing about spam on a sunday morning :-)

We all know that those networks are there to create very artificial reciprocal linking for one purpose only: manupulate serach engines including big G. And such networks should be considered as spam nests.

However when looking at Google´s spam reporting page there is no indications that Google considers those spam networks as spam that should be reported. Take a look:

http://www.google.com/contact/spamreport.html

Type(s) of problem (check all that apply):
Hidden text or links
Misleading or repeated words
Page does not match Google’s description
Cloaked page
Deceptive redirects
Doorway pages
Duplicate site or pages
Other (specify)

My question is, why not add another option, something like:

LinkExchange Network

Such option will signal that Google does consider the said networks as spam.

Thoughts?

Wish you a great Sunday.

Wouldn’t it be cool if we could post our own pages in Matts blog while he is away for the weekend?

Heh

Heh

(What interesting things will he write about this coming week? I visit this place as much as I visit my favorite forums now, pretty cool!)

Cheers,

-Aaron
