Google replaces URLs with breadcrumb links in search results

Blogstorm SEO blog -- Google has announced this morning that for certain queries they will be showing site hierarchies in the search results rather than URLs string. On first inspection I dont like the system because in all the examples Google has provided the keyword rich product URL is removed and replaced with a more generic category level keyword.

Page load speed may be in Google 2010 algorithm

Enterprise SEO with the new EPiServer SEO plugin

Blogstorm SEO blog -- Although Im a big fan of Wordpress & Interspire for smaller projects we use EPiServer a fair bit for enterprise level site builds. Licenses dont come cheap (its in the £10k+ range) but for large scale sites its one of the more robust content management systems available.

Hacked

Blogstorm SEO blog -- On Monday I spotted a strange issue with Blogstorm that was causing the blog to be displayed 4 inches down the page. I suspected it was a browser issue or some kind of hack but the source code was totally clean and it was displaying the same in multiple browsers which was strange. After some investigation by one of our developers yesterday it turned out that the JavaScript file which powers the ta...     11-12

Blogstorm SEO blog -- We already know that Rupert Murdoch is planning to launch a paid content strategy sometime next year but in a recent Sky News interview he went one step further and said that they would be blocking Google from indexing content from their websites.

Future Twitter trends

Blogstorm SEO blog -- It’s fair to say that we are now surfing the crest of the first great Twitter wave. Slight tweaks to the interface (the recent introduction of lists) don’t disguise the fact that growth in US user numbers has stalled. Multi-million dollar deals with Google and Bing, as well as translations (Spanish has just launched), will give the service a shot in the arm but its long-term future is somewhat of ...     11-05
