Yes folks, Google have launched a new free Ad serving platform, the Ad Manager.
Though still on its testing phase, this program looks promising.
The sole purpose of it is to be a complete package for managing advertising on your site—including selling, scheduling, delivering and measuring ad inventory. While many small sites personally manage the ads they display, you can reach a point where that becomes difficult to track and optimize. So this tool just does that, any ad inventory you have can be managed with this program, you’re only not restricted just to AdSense coz you think it’s a tool made by Google…Pretty neat huh?..and why should you love this tool more?…It’s FREE!
I had read in an article that Google returns different search results for queries based on whether the keyword phrase is keyed in upper-case or lower-case letters. How true is this you say? Should we actually think of considering to optimize for these variations if our site appear in one and not the other? I personally decided to find out for myself.
I fired up Mozilla and I tried keying in “DOGS” on one tab and “dogs” on the other. Here are the results I got.
The lower-case query “dogs” displays pets4you.com on the 5th position.
On the other hand, with the upper-case query “DOGS”, it showed a slight change on the search results. It has greatdogsite.com on the 5th position and moves pet4you.com on the 6th place.
Yes it’s not a major difference, but it is something to be looked into coz from what I read from Google web search help center, it specifically states that their searches are not case sensitive.
This comes to conclude if capitalization on the page affects how a page ranks for capitalized queries. Is this something need to be fix, a “loophole” of some sort where one can exploit on the SEO front? I’m keeping my eyes on it.
There is indeed power in open social networks and social applications(widgets), and Facebook, that was founded in 2004 as a social site for students at Harvard University, spread quickly to other colleges and eventually into work places. The Silicon Valley company, in terms of unique visitors per day, is causing MySpace to really think about their current traffic. Facebook has already eclipsed MySpace based on the chart below.
I personally prefer Facebook rather than MySpace. The fact that they ought to add privacy controls and plans chat feature for their users on an article I read, it is no doubt that Facebook is way better than MySpace. It sure shows that they are to preserve social distinctions between friends, family and co-workers online.
Use of Facebook has exploded fivefold over the past year and a half. Two-thirds of its users are now located outside the United States compared with about 10 percent 18 months ago, when most members were student age and in the United States.
MySpace has to think of something now.
Although this might sound a little similar with the “space elevator project” which had a lofty goal, Google Inc. has agreed to build an undersea cable with five telecoms operators that will link the United States to Japan, and provide the capacity to sustain a surge in Internet traffic between the continents.
Quoted:
” Google and the five telecoms companies said in joint statement that the 10,000 km (6,200 mile) undersea fiber optic cable, connecting the United States to Japan, will cost $300 million.
The Unity cable system allows the members of the consortium to provide the increased capacity needed as more applications and services migrate online,” said Jayne Stowell, a spokesman for the consortium.”
Now, this kind of technology have been here for over a hundred of years, and that is called the “Transatlantic telegraph cable”. The transatlantic cable bridged North America and Europe, and expedited communication between the two. Whereas it would normally take at least ten days to deliver a message by ship, it now took a matter of minutes by telegraph. Nothing really new though for Google, but as one of the forum members reacted on the thread I read, notice how all the partners are not US telcos. What is actually Google saying?..Hmmm…I feel this is going to be nasty..write a comment regarding your take on this.:D
They say that you can never change your destiny by having surgical changes to your face. But I don’t agree to that. Looking and being the best of what we can possibly be will open doors to greater opportunities you never expect.
Technology has laid before us today a lot of options to choose from. These are of course created to aid human beings achieve a life that they can actually smile back at. Now, talking about smile, did you ever wonder how to get that perfect smile?
People that are actually behind the killer smiles of celebrities, models and other public figures we know are called dentists. Imagine life without them. Dentists diagnose, prevent and treat our teeth and gums. They specialize in filling cavities, removing decay, examining x-rays, straightening and repairing fractured teeth, performing corrective surgery on gums, supporting bones, extracting teeth, making models and measurements for dentures and a whole lot more. They are the people who actually lead technology into act.
Happiness does come in many different ways, but for me, it is actually finding a reflection of yourself with that exceptional sparkling smile that’s going to lead you somewhere. So having that killer smile is really not that hard. It’s just one appointment to the dentist away.
As technology continuously grows, many people have also began to adapt to the latest makeover trends available at the market today. One of the most common is the non-surgical method of providing for the non-invasive treatment of aging – BOTOX injections
Also known as botulinum toxin, botox works by blocking the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter, leading to the relaxation of muscles. Botox works by temporarily weakening the muscles responsible for the appearance of some wrinkles and lines along the eyes. This process involves the use of fatty tissues taken from your thigh or abdomen, which actually contains animal protein known as collagen. Other advantages of botox include treatment of migraine headaches, excessive sweating, and muscles spasm.
One disadvantage though is that botulinum, which is a strain of botulism, is a powerful poison. For that reason, it is highly recommended that when you plan to have chemical injections administered in your body you should contact certified doctors.
A flat and well-toned abdomen is something many of us strive for through exercise and weight control. Sometimes these methods cannot achieve our goals. Even individuals of otherwise normal body weight and proportion can develop an abdomen that protrudes or is loose and sagging.
The most common causes of this include pregnancy, aging, significant fluctuations in weight, heredity and prior surgery. And so, dying to get rid if those annoying excessive fat around the waist, try to scoot your way to the nearest cosmetic surgery clinic and inquire about tummy tucks.
Ditch all of those strenuous methods of eliminating those flabs and achieve the tummy you want quickly, and I say fast! “Tummy tucks” or also known as Abdominoplasty is a cosmetic surgery procedure used to make the abdomen more firm. The surgery involves the removal of excess skin and fat from the middle and lower abdomen in order to tighten the muscle and fascia of the abdominal wall. In minutes, you would be looking at yourself at the mirror with more confidence and pride.
