Bing now powers Yahoo’s search…for real.

Eric — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 08:47:24 +0000

Once the Bing / Yahoo deal was announced in Joly 2009, the questions were immediately raised…”When would Bing finally start powering Yahoo’s search?” and “What tools of Yahoo’s (such as Yahoo site explorer,etc.) would be still available” or would they scrap them. Finally, after much research (and messing around) by Bing and Yahoo… these questions [...]

A backlog of information and posts…

Eric — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 07:59:26 +0000

Eric — Sat, 07 Aug 2010 19:39:11 +0000

I was having a conversation with a Real Estate agent who asked why I have steadfastly been against the idea of syndication , until there was no other choice in the real estate industry (which is where our brokerage is at currently). This same person was quizzing me as to why I do NOT recommend [...]

WordPress Themes matter for being Search Engine Friendly…just like any other CMS

Eric — Wed, 21 Apr 2010 15:20:20 +0000

I continue to get asked a pretty interesting question by folks who are looking to make sure that their WordPress blogs /sites are search angine friendly. While they get to the point from many different directions, the final destination is always the same. Does your choice of themes MATTER?? or do the search engines just [...]

Speed now a factor in search results? Well…kinda

Eric — Mon, 12 Apr 2010 11:08:50 +0000

With Matt Cutts’ announcement that the speed your website loads at is a factor (albeit a small one) in ranking on Google, my guess is that we are going to see a lot of people doing the right thing for the wrong reason. What am i talking about? Why SHOULD you want your pages to [...]

Mark Jaquith gets it…and SEO’s should too.

Eric — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 17:58:06 +0000

With this post, I could really get into the technical nitty gritty of “how” some people do their SEO. I could get into link injection, spinning content with Markov generators, sneaking code (read: links ) into every possible crevice of someone else’s WordPress site through surreptitious means. But I won’t. Doing these things is not [...]

What does Eric read?… more like “Who do I learn from?”
