SEO's Changed Forever

Thank you Olivia for this pic
Google announced the Hummingbird Algorithm in mid-September on their 15th birthday in the same garage where Google was born.  Search Engine Land had a live blog following that event.  Other notable blogs that discuss the new algorithm are...


The list above will give you a good idea of what Hummingbird is about and what changes to expect in Search for the rest of 2013.  I seriously don't think we will have another Algorithm update for the rest of the year, or atleast thats what I'm hoping.

Cayman SEO: Update on Changing to neutral Top Level Domains (TLD)

Just a very quick update on TLD's that address the geo targeting tool that Google released, or is it unleashed.  One of our internal website www.cayman4rent.ky already had a page rank of 3 and was very visible for online searches for most rental keywords in the Cayman Islands and it its domain age was not even 1 year old.  When google inserted the fixed geo-targeting location on Web Master Tools it was a wake up call of sorts. I quickly read up on what this could possible mean to the .ky and realized very quickly that Google was going to remove the .ky from its US data centres.  I wrote a blog regarding TLDs back in February and you can read it here .  On that blog I showed the fact that www.cayman4rent.ky was showing up for major keywords such as "grand cayman rentals" in the Cayman Islands but it was not showing up for the same keyword in the United States.  I was crushed really because it mean that I would have to give it a neutral TLD such as a .com for it...

Write content that is valuable for Search Engines & Users

Write content for Search Engines and Users For the past few years I have been going on and on about writing new content as regularly as possible.  I have seen quite a few of our clients do so diligently and I appreciate that but there is one thing that is starting to become clear:  writing content that is valuable to both Search Engine and Users is paramount if you want to maintain your Search Engine position and perhaps even to increase your online visibility.  Below here are my suggestions when writing your next blog. Your objective everytime you write a new blog should be: will Users like and/or share this information?
