2) Another Common SEO Myth: Multiple Domain Names If there is one area on the Web that is often overly abused, this is it. There are several factors that make this a dangerous strategy. Let's start by outlining the tremendous amount of work that would be necessary to build, maintain and achieve a high ranking for, let's say fifteen websites rather than one only. On top of all that, let's not forget the cost of the domain names themselves wich some, in certain cases, can be expensive to begin with. Please click here to read all the article. 
The Semantic WebIf you've ever read the history of how the Internet all began more than 25 years ago, then you probably already know about Vinton Cerf and Tim Berners Lee, which are now called the Fathers of the Internet. Those two noble men actually invented the Web as we know it today. So I came across an interesting story about them that I think you should read. Although the story is written in typical "W3C" style (in technical uncertainty), it might offer you a better understanding of exactly what the Semantic Web should be, and as it relates to the search engines. Connecting the various dots in a Semantic Web The resource descriptions from the GRDDL can be easily transformed or understood by other applications in an array or other Internet application settings. Technically, GRDDL will extract RDF (Resource Description Framework) data from XML. With the GRDDL mechanism in place, the XML namespace document declares that namespace associated documents or profiles include data that can be analyzed and stored for future use. Overall, RDF is a W3C specification that was only completed in February 2004. GRDDL is the next layer allowing for RDF to be analyzed and manipulated to connect the Semantic Web together. While the regular Web is about exchanging documents, the Semantic Web is about the interchange of specific data. The W3C has been working on GRDDL since at least April 2004 when it first released the GRDDL design as a W3C technical report. Recently, the W3C released the first version of the GRDDL specification. Although the Semantic Web and the GRDDL specification may seem somewhat abstract to the average person, the W3C has gone to great lengths to help users better understand what it's all about and the real-life examples where it will integrate itself. To be sure, the W3C has published a GRDDL Primer and a collection of various examples on how to use GRDDL to extract RDF data from XML. Well, thats it for this week. Have a pleasant and relaxing weekend. I will see you all next Saturday!
