<description><![CDATA[I've no doubt many Sphinn and Search Engine Land readers will be at SES London today. We certainly exposed enough of them to the show, which is backed by competitor Search Engine Watch. But in light of how much activity SEW staffers have been doing on Sphinn about SES shows lately -- and indirectly through Search Engine Land's SearchCap newsletter -- I wonder if SMX is getting a fair shake in return.In particular, Search Engine Land gave SES London 6 advance mentions so far this year, while SES shows in total had 11. And SMX advanced mentions from Search Engine Watch? Zero. Below, more on this case study, plus I'm curious if people think SEL should expect some degree of equal time.<br/><br/>43 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Look, I drive a Volvo (and a Mini, so don't mock me!). That doesn't mean I want some idiot spamming Sphinn for Volvo dealers. And Toyota dealers. And Mazda. And Hummers. And.... You get the point. We repeatedly kill this person, but he keeps coming back. So I'm kicking it out to anyone who want to take a look. Below are just some of the links we've had to axe in the past few days. http://www.superiorvolvo.com/http://www.volvoofcharleston.com/http://www.superiorkc.com/http://www.superiorvolvo.com/http://www.volvoofcharleston.com/http://www.superiorkc.comhttp://www.tonyhonda.com/http://www.newbergdodge.com/ou/newberg-dcj/http://www.independencehummer.com/http://www.brickellhonda.com/http://www.charlestoyota.com/http://www.expresswaymotors.com/http://www.duval-mazda.com/http://www.worldcarnissan.net/http://www.gpchevy.com/When I went through them, I kept coming across references to an Izmocars (not always, but lots). And when I hit that site, look, they have a &quot;rainmaker&quot; service. http://www.izmocars.com/izmocarsnew/rainmaker.htmSo I'll toss it out there. Anyone want to see if you can connect the dots here? Maybe someone from Izmo will drop by to explain things.Postscript: And the list goes on...http://www.gphonda.com<br/><br/>40 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[John Andrews call for Sphinns in return for a link -- while jokingly done -- still raised a serious issue. Should a post get pulled if Sphinns are bartered or pulled? Can search marketers figure out the right way to treat the issue, which in turn might prove a model for how Google deals with paid links? Or will we be forced to go down a route of flagging pay-for-Sphinn votes with a nosphinn tag :) What do you think?<br/><br/>49 Vote(s) ]]></description>

As a result, the US has to effectively pay off other countries for lost trade. The EU is settling for new postal and courier opportunities. Canada's seeking a deal, while Antigua &amp; Barbuda wuld like $3.4 billion. Many affiliate were severely harmed when the US closed online gambling, of course.<br/><br/>45 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Want to know how many people read your feeds from iGoogle and Google Reader? Now you can get those stats from Google Webmaster Central. However, it doesn't work right if you use FeedBurner or another tracking tool. I look at the problem plus slice and dice how you can breakout iGoogle from Google Reader using FeedBurner. Oh, and GWC gets all pretty inside, too.<br/><br/>39 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[I really hate the meta keywords tag. I really, really do. And when someone asked about it on a panel of search engine reps that I was moderating, even the reps seem confused about how they do or don't support it. So I rolled up my sleeves and tested it out. The results are in, along with a long tutorial on the history of the tag and advice on when to use it. And now I hate it even more.<br/><br/>55 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Facebook is going to open profiles to be found by search engines like Google, proving the walled garden isn't as hot as some thing. IE: if Facebook really were going to kill the search engines, as some think, it wouldn't need to be putting its content (that's you) out there. Instead, it bows to Google master just like most sites :)<br/><br/>37 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Greg Jarboe says Google messed up in announcing how it would host AP and other wire stories, saying it should have figured there'd be a big outcry and people should be around to deal with it. Me, I think the &quot;outcry&quot; was overblown.<br/><br/>8 Vote(s) ]]></description>
