How about 50,000 pages in less than 4 weeks! Yes, Google indexing is blazingly fast. It indexed more than 50,000 page of it’s competitor - the new Singapore local search engine Rednano.sg - in less than 4 weeks!
I was approached by Daryl Tay of Unique-Frequency to contribute SEO related articles to his blog. I, being a lazy person person, am not very sure if I can sustain the effort to write regularly for his blog.
So I came up with an idea…
“Why not ask me some questions on SEO and I will try to answer them.”
I think that will be more interesting.
Last week, I spoke with a Web designer from an established Web design and development firm in Singapore to find out why many of these companies have not adopted SEO as part of their offering to their clients.
The Web designer questioned the need for SEO when their clients could pay for sponsored links to get visitors to their sites.
I want to know what other people thinks, so I posted this question to my Linkedin community:
And here’s some of the replies I received.
Discovered that several of the new domains I launched since in Nov/Dec 2007 have increased in PageRank over the past 2 days. So, this time round, Google is pretty prompt in updating the PR ranking.
The last Google PR update was in late Oct 2007 after a long wait of 6 months. During that update, Google penalized many of the sites that sell or buy text links.
I had just made a short video on the use of IMG ALT tag at my other SEO blog and was pondering what to write at this blog. Then I saw an earlier post on how an unethical Web designer in Singapore hijacked his client’s Web page. So I did a quick search on Google for the unethical web designers in singapore and guess what I found…
Did you notice that when you typed in “google.com” into your Internet Explorer or Firefox, you would be automatically re-directed to the appropriate google.ccTLD unless you were in the USA or your internet connection was re-routed from a USA ISP.
Since I am situated in Singapore accessing the internet using Singnet, Google.com.sg is my default gateway which serves results relevant to Singapore.
I was in and out of the Number 1 position for seo singapore since my last post on Ranked 1st for SEO Singapore. And I think it’s alright for my ego as long as I am in the top 5.
This week, the last week of Year 2007, this blog was demoted to #3 and #4. LarryLim.net came up number 1 after vanishing from the top 10 for several weeks. And I was thinking what happened to my friend…
I loved Sunday. I believe this is the day when Google like to mess with the search engine ranking and I get my momentary fame. Finally, my big day has come, this blog is ranked Number 1 for the search terms: seo singapore! on Sunday, 25 November 2007.
Is this an early Christmas gift from Google?
Thank you, thank you, thank you….
I have just uploaded a video testimonial on SEO Web Design Course recorded 2 days ago. This video featured Terence Yap of BPI Technology (S) Pte Ltd who attended the SEO Web Design Course on 6 Oct 2007.
Terence registered a new domain and created a new site,
www.MoldReleaseNanoTechnology.com to test out what he learned at the course. To cut the story short, his new site was ranked in the first page of Google for his targeted keywords within 2 weeks. He was very surprised but overjoyed with the results.
After reading Kian Ann’s amazing feat on getting into Google’s 1st Page in 17 minutes, I started a series of experiments to test if such results are reproducible. Yes. I managed to repeat the results again and again.
So far, the fastest result I obtained was 13 minutes for a 7-terms phrase. My newest test done less than an hour ago with the search terms sph search, got into the 8th position in about 19 minutes.
