Google Instant launched last week and there has been a lot of complete nonsense written about it (some good stuff too though). If you haven’t tried it yet, go to Google.com and take it for a spin. I find it quite interesting to see some of the results. A lot of the stories that came […]
Matt Cutts is Google’s senior engineer who fights spam in the Google index. He is the guy that weilds the dreaded "Google Slap" . We were noticing some weird stuff happening on Google’s side this week though. The bot was deliberately going to parts of our site that we told it not to. I guess […]
This week we examine Google insights to see what Aussies are thinking about their election, review a viewers site and I pick up 2663 backlinks in a week 🙂 JimJim’s been here for a while, you know who he is. stewartmedia.biz
I Just got back from an amazing week’s holiday in NZ. I know I usually bring the show to you no matter where I am in the world but last Wednesday I was without bandwidth. I’m ok now though 🙂 I take a look at two sites today. One a viewer review and another is […]

jim boot is what the guys over at warcom.com.au are trying to rank for because we went to no.1 for this post http://jimboot.com/alex-hallett for the phrase Alex Hallett. It will be interesting to see if Google caffeine indexes this Joomla blog as fast as the wordpress site. JimJim’s been here for a while, you know […]
We’ve all heard that the Google Caffeine update was all about indexing the web in real time. Well yesterday we watched it happen with a blog post I wrote. It appeared on the first page of Google within 30 mins of being published. However the speed of indexing seems to have a side effect of […]
Yesterday Jine & Joel, (not a vaudevillian act) two of our top rankers pointed out some blackhat going on in one of our clients keyword spaces. It turned out that 4 of the top 5 sites for this phrase were doing blackhat. Their pages were riddled with hidden keywords. How do you check if you’re […]
