What is really important to underline when talking about this popular topic is that funds invested into most PFI programs go mainly in getting your web site indexed into the various search databases. There really isn't much more to it. Some promise you to be listed within seven days, others tell you it may be sooner. Please click here to read the article.
Google's new Sitemaps ProtocolWell it was about time! When I read the news on Thursday that now you can submit a site to Google, Yahoo and MSN all at once I was happy. Now you can submit to these three major search engines and in one single location! The three rival search engines will be adopting Google's Sitemaps protocol. Tim Mayer, director of product management at Yahoo Search said "now people will be able to go to just one site for alerting the search engines of their Web sites, something they have been asking for some time". "In the first joint initiative to improve the Web spidering process for the three major search engines, Google, Yahoo and MSN today announced the introduction of Sitemaps 0.90, a free and simple way for site owners and business people to notify search engines about their sites and to enable them to be indexed faster, resulting in better representation in the search engines," a joint news release said. "For Internet users, Sitemaps 0.90 enables higher quality and fresher search results" the release said. The new initiative was originally the idea of Google and Yahoo. "We thought it would be great for publishers and Webmasters alike to be able to submit their content in one single format for all three search engines," Mayer said. He added "we are proposing the format together and inviting other search engines to adopt it." Here's a tip of the hat to Google, Yahoo and MSN Live! From now on, submitting a site will take a minute or two instead of the 15 it used to take before this. Well, thats it for this week. Have a pleasant and relaxing weekend.
