Comments for Search Banter http://www.searchbanter.com A blog about search engine optimization, seo news, tips and all other such banter. By Nelson James Wed, 14 May 2008 15:53:08 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.6 Comment on About by Nelson http://www.searchbanter.com/about/#comment-210 Mon, 11 Feb 2008 21:43:51 +0000 http://www.searchbanter.com/about/#comment-210 Goran, The best tool for keyword research as far as I'm concerned is Trellian's Keyword Discovery. It's a subscription tool, so it will cost you a little bit of money, but I think it's probably worth the price. However, I don't think it's the greatest keyword tool, or frankly, a great keyword tool. It leaves quite a bit to be desired, but so far, there isn't a better tool out there. There are a few free tools out there that do a pretty good job. One is a tool that integrates into Microsoft Excel 2007. It seems to be decent, but is lacking in good long tail keyword research. The other is Google's external keyword tool which also does a good job but doesn't provide actual data. As far as a tool to track links and keywords goes, Advanced Web Ranking is a good one to track keyword rankings on multiple sites and the same company has created a decent link manager tool as well. Hope that helps. Goran,

]]> Comment on Adsense Allows More Ads Per Page by Jim Lee http://www.searchbanter.com/seo/adsense-allows-more-ads-per-page#comment-207 Mon, 21 Jan 2008 23:22:21 +0000 http://www.searchbanter.com/seo/adsense-allows-more-ads-per-page#comment-207 Search engine expert James Brausch did some extensive "reverse engineering" of the Search Engine Ranking Factors (SERFs), and found that having AdSense on your website is a negative Ranking Factor... meaning your site is LESS likely to rank well if you have AdSense on it. He suggests that this is in response to all the junk AdSense sites that are being made, and that Google wants to ensure that their searches deliver higher quality results.

We're already seeing IPTV devices. What is Nemeas? I've never heard about it! I dont think that the internet will replace TV as such, but i do think the two will start to merge together.

My kids know the net better than most aduts do and they are all under 10. Who knows if the TV will ever really die but if you want to keep up in business you better be ready. We are looking at using http://:www.nemeas.com to help us find the best domain names to appeal to this up and coming market. I hope all of you have a great New Year.

Yes, I agree that it will happen for some industries, but not really for all. Even though many are into the use of computers, many are still dependent on using the traditional media, knowing that it has its own market segment, right? What a great insight.

I heard of some software called Nemeas that is supposed to tell me how good the domain name I am considering would be. Have you heard of this, and what do you think of it?

I am so excited for you guys. www.SEO.com is a great domain name. I hope work is going great for you all. Did you ever fly out for that interview with Google? I still need to pick up that book from Seth Godin you said I could have. I am assuming you are in the same building. I'll have to look it up when I go out. Cheers, Dude! Nice bro.
