No Social networking, no continuous SEO, no updates..as you can see by this post, no updates. This is something we as web guys and girls…update and keep up to date with our websites.

Honestly….what’s wrong with us!

I’m not sure how much I agree with that. I have done some testing on both counts and must say that in my opinion it is not the case. By having some keywords in your URL string pages seem to rank higher, providing there is relavent content on the page.

So, I would be careful before making that assumption.
But then again…who the hell am I!

    Web page creation date
    Changes and updates of a web page
    Analysis of search queries
    Links, link texts and the changes of the links
    Website traffic
    User behavior
    Web page topics
    Domain related information

Pretty wild and logical if you ask me. All search engines should use some of those as ranking criteria but they will hopefully use it with a grain of salt. You wouldn’t want to get dinged because your site doesn’t update for a long period of time, if it was ranked highly originally.

One day a site is ranked high, but then the site seems to drop, then only to rise again. From what I’m reading there seems to be a revolving ranking of sites going on. Which in my eyes is odd. A few questions come to mind.

  • How do I get a newer site to show up within this revolving list of sites?
  • What does this do to my current site?
  • How many sites are in this rotation?

I guess only time will tell, but stick to your guns and promote your SEO clients to stay the course and build better content.

Finally, some people I work with understand and realize what I was trying to do in my early stages with Downtown Hotels and have let me put this back into the works. We have steadily grown in rankings with Yahoo and MSN…as well as google. I’m am very please and will post more soon.

StinkyCooper http://www.stinkycooper.com <![CDATA[Roomrate.com SEO Update 7/31/06]]> http://www.stinkycooper.com/seo/ 2007-01-09T17:40:33Z 2006-07-31T15:38:46Z Well, we got the google smackdown again. We’ve been playing around with just our title tags lately and have watched google just push us around. It’s really insightful, frustrating and dissappointing to watch what you think is a great Keyphrase, or keyword and not get the results that your looking for.

So, Google says it doesn’t play favorites, yet, some of their “clients” get treated as if they have all the keywords and popularity no matter what terms you search for. – How is this? I understand some of what they are doing, but it is seemingly extremely difficult to break into the general keyword results.

I think I have some understanding of search engine placement, but then sometimes I feel like a novice. I don’t like tricks, gimicks or spam to get proper placement but I’m starting to think maybe I should start looking into it. It’s just unreal!

StinkyCooper http://www.stinkycooper.com <![CDATA[AirportandHotels.com SEO update]]> http://www.stinkycooper.com/seo/ 2007-01-09T17:40:57Z 2006-06-25T19:30:42Z Well, it seems as though we are finally back on track with the SEO project of death. We have updated all of the templates to contain fresh text content and less back and forth linkage with Roomrate.com. By eliminating linking within the attractions area and the content area we have given Airportandhotels.com the contextual relevance that will allow it to stand on its’ own.

Back in Google for some of our latest updates…we feel we have finally done the right thing. Let’s hope it keeps going.

You know when you are trying to create an image horizontal rule, and you have problems with it going to far – so you end up creating a table. Well, here’s a little workaround for that.

<div align="center"><p class="horizontaldivider" style="width:80%;"></p></div>

Working below:
