Thanks for the interview and valuable information. I do agree that over a period of time ranking reports have become less relevent however still for generic keywords if I could see, website of higher Google page rank are performing better. For example for keyword "Yoga" the most website which are performing on page one on GOOGLE UK are having google page rank between 6 to 4. Thank you very much for the idea of broder view of SEO, embrasing social media such as Twitter. Thank you once again With Regards Subodh Gupta Hi Matt,

I tried to explain about how cool it was, but strangely she just didn't get it. We have an agreement now, I can go to 4 conferences a year but I have to take her to see a London show. :) I’m in the same boat, tried to bring my wife along to SES London last year, she went shopping, I brought a FireFox T-Shirt, she’s never really looked at me in the same light :( .

I don't think so, first we can do local listing so if some one search super jumbo home loan - he/she can find in locally. Secondly main motto of web is global network not only local, and yes there is big problem for seo-r Deb Hi Matt – thanks for your interview – you said – different search results by country – will it be user friendly?

I think that new new and current google calculations needs big server power. I believe that Google doesnt equal share its power of calculation between countries. Some second class countries see more spaming results. Maybe you tell about this in another interview Hi Matt,

IMO, all any client needs is a Google Anylitical Account so they see what is happening straight from horses mouth. Use this information with their own stats package. There IS Gold in accurate Web Site statistics. SEO, IMO, is really a complete myth (most are obsessed with "link building" at a great cost to their clients). Web page/site design with *good quality and unique content pages* is THE key to long lasting good SERP positions. The sooner SEO dies, the better. Better for clients, better for searchers, better for the person charging the client. The whole World benefits. I doubt Google seeks out and ranks SEO optimized pages over those that are written *almost entirely for Humans*. So, rather trying to second guess what Google prefers (taking risks and wasting time and money), common sense & logic tells me it is *good quality and unique content pages written for Humans*. After all, Humans use Google NOT Robots.
