The Conversion Optimization Flaw You Need to Know

You tensely sit at your desk and watch the data pour in from the first few days of your new conversion optimization campaign. Not good – no sales and no inkling of a winning variant. As the days turn into weeks you feel your blood pressure rise as you stare at the site intently, as though you could simply will conversions to happen. Of course you cannot. Every time the phone rings, you hope it isn’t your client. You would rather receive a call from the IRS than see your client’s number come up.

Google’s Matt Cutts On Assessing Quality Of A Page Without Links

In the latest video by Google’s Matt Cutts, he talks about how Google may determine the quality of a page of content without there being many links. By Matt’s expression, he seemed to give off the feeling that without links, it is really hard for Google to determine the quality of the page. He said, you have to go to pre-Google days, how search engines worked before links, and look at the words on the page. Matt explained you need to judge the content based on the words on the page and the more often the words are on the page, in a diminishing scales type of way, the more likely the page is about that word.

Google Cuts off Chrome Extensions That Don’t Come From the Web Store

Press Release Sites See Huge Drop In Google Ranking After Panda 4.0

Yesterday I reported at Search Engine Land that Panda 4.0 may have hurt press release sites and showed SearchMetrics data for PRWeb, PR Newswire, BusinessWire and PRLog all losing between 60% to 85% of their SEO visibility.

The controversy around press release sites were mostly about links flowing from those releases, not necessarily the issue with the duplicative nature of that content. But let’s be honest, many many press releases issued are content thin and spammy on the content end, not just on the link end. So maybe, just maybe, Panda 4.0 adjusted for it and the big sites felt it? Sean from SEER also documented the drop via SEM Rush data and screen shots of before …
