SEO Scoop Birthday where you can win the present!
June 7, 2007 by DazzlinDonna · 5 Comments
On June 26th, 2007, SEO Scoop will turn 3 years old! If we count blog years like we do dog years (blog rhymes with dog so it makes sense to me), then SEO Scoop will be turning 21 and will be a full-fledged grownup blog. In honor of SEO Scoop’s upcoming birthday, I’ve decided to hold a contest, so that I can give away a birthday present to a lucky winner on Scoop’s big day.
SEO Scoop has a new look
June 6, 2007 by DazzlinDonna · 15 Comments
Obviously, unless you are brand spankin’ new here, you’ve noticed that SEO Scoop is now sporting a whole new look. It’s certainly possible that I’ve missed something here or there, so if a problem crops up, let me know. I may still tweak things a bit over the next few days, but basically, this is the new Scoop. Hope you like it. (Oh, and yes, I’ve done away with the 800×600 resolution, so hopefully that won’t upset too many people).
Looking at BidVertiser

I often recommend not becoming dependent upon any one source of traffic and/or revenue. For that reason, I always check out alternate sources of income, and Bidvertiser is the one I’m currently taking a look at.
New Ask.com with 10 new skins

Via Techcrunch, I learned that Ask.com had a major relaunch tonight. While Techcrunch does a good job mentioning some of the new features, my eye was caught by the pretty new bling….the Ask homepage now comes with skins. I’ve taken screenshots of each for you to peruse. I’m partial to the polka dots skin, because the bright colors make me happy. What’s your favorite?
Hoping for a stellar algo discussion
June 3, 2007 by DazzlinDonna · Comments Off
I’ve just posted some snippets that a NY Times reporter gleaned from Mr. Google Engineer over on the SEOrefugee forum. It’s been a fairly long time since I’ve seen a large group of us have a go at dissecting algo tidbits, and coming up with theories and thoughts on the Google algo. I figured now would be an awesome time to have one of our old-fashioned algo discussions since we suddenly have some really ripe, juicy tidbits to stir our imaginations. The discussion I started is here (no replies yet, so you could be the first with insight, or to tell me that my own comments are hogwash). Link to original article is there as well. So, c’mon, let’s go theorize!
No! Don’t make me! No! No! No! No!

Ok, I’ve been squeezing my eyes shut really, really tight, hoping against hope that all the rumors of Google buying Feedburner were untrue. But alas, my wishes were smashed against a wall and broken into tiny pieces when I saw that the Official Google Blog announced the purchase.
