Are you eating poison?
The most important thing in SEO is current experience. With that said, we have discovered the most likely reason some companies have fallen in rankings since January, and are now experimenting with a cure.
Have you got a good SEO doctor? Maybe it’s time to call one?
“Web” alerts will become “Everything” alerts
Marcel Gordon, Product Manager of Google Alerts, sends an email as we’re walking out the door today letting us know that our trusty web alerts are changing.
You may receive more results after this change. If you find that you are getting too many results, you can change the “How often” setting to “once a day” or “once a week.” You can also change your search query. You can do this on the alerts management page (www.google.com/alerts/manage), or by removing the alert using the link at the bottom of each alert email and creating it again with different settings.
Interestingly enough, I’d bet that the reason they predict that this change will continue to serve the same results, or increase is because their results contain many more types of information, videos, forum/blog threads, news results, local business results, maps and, of course, web pages. The next step may indeed be to send videos and maps in the alerts themselves.

Tom Corbett Faces Off Against A Bunch of Rick Blaine Wannabes
Have you guys heard about the war going on between Pennsylvania Attorney General Tom Corbett and bloggers bfbarbie and CasaBlancaPA? Corbett has subpoenaed Twitter in order to gain “Any and all subscriber information…” on these two, in order to pursue criminal charges. Corbett’s vendetta seems directed more toward the blog they contribute to, which is also titled CasaBlancaPA. The blog sports this catchy mission statement: Exposing the hypocrisy of Tom Corbett.
But in doing so have they done something illegal? As far as we can tell, no. And judging as how anonymous speech is a big part of the first amendment it’s hard to see what legal ground Corbett has to stand on. Then again, it’s hard to see how he managed to get elected (and re-elected) in the first place. Did I mention he’s the leading gubernatorial candidate as well?
Coming after this blog just makes Corbett look guiltier and in doing so has only served to bring more publicity to their cause. Someone should tell Corbett how silencing criticism worked out for John Adams when he passed the Sedition Act way back in 1978.
You can judge the blog for yourself here.
We encourage the candidate to focus on the issues and talk about what his (potential) constituents can expect of his administration. And if Corbett succeeds in his bid to become the next governor then the folks at CasaBlancaPA, to quote their favorite movie, had better “Either lay off politics, or get out.”

Effective and Affordable Link Building
Does anyone know a good and reasonable priced Link Building company? (SEO)

Hi Roy,

Depending on your goals and assets (domain, ranking) I can provide you with a recommendation.
We are at www.3-PRIME.com, with link building info here.
Should blog post title tag match headline?
For purposes of SEO, should the title tag of my blog post be the same as the post headline?
- Patrick H. 35 / M / Stow, MA
Not necessarily, unless you want to rank for the exact phrases you use as your headlines.
I’d recommend to use the title tag do target 1-2 keyphrases containing in your headline, and use your headline to employ those keyphrases in a useful sentence, providing semantic usage of both the keyphrase and context for its usage.
Thanks Ryan. Would their be any harm in using the same?
No, my recommendation is just a better practice, not a necessity. For the sake of simplicity, you can definitely use the same info for both places with no harmful outcome.
