		<description><![CDATA[A recent Google-Nielsen study showed that television commercials for movies were only 2 percent more influential in the decision to see a particular film than the medium of search.

		<description><![CDATA[Search Engine Roundtable recently wrote a post saying that it appears Yahoo! is ordering the links in their site explorer based on their perceived quality. They searched a few sites including their own and found this to be the case so I decided to try a few myself. I tried it on this site (SearchBanter) [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Google Adsense is now allowing its users to put 3 link units on every page as opposed to the 1 link unit you could historically place. This technically means that you can have 3 blocks of Ads and 3 link units on every page.

		<description><![CDATA[MSN has been continually losing what little footing they had as a search engine. Every month their search engine market share percentage decreases by a percentage or two. You wouldn&#8217;t think that was much except that if the trend continues, they&#8217;ll have 0 market share before the end of the year.

		<description><![CDATA[Matt Cutts recently wrote a post where he talked about reciprocal linking. The jest of the post was that reciprocal linking wasn&#8217;t bad depending on how you do it, but as time goes on, it&#8217;s definitely given less weight in the search engines.
