Improving Search at The Speed of Light!

Writing by Nick Stamoulis on Thursday, October 22, 2009 Comments (2)

Recent developments at Google and Bing have got me thinking. The 3 major search engines (yes, there only 3 major search players at this point) really are stretching themselves to improve search, make the Web a better place, and beat each other at the competitive game. To some extent, too, Yahoo! is giving it everything it’s got to stay in the game, however in a different kind of way.

With all of these improvements going on, you’d better be thinking ahead about five years. It’s really too difficult to think any further ahead than that and if you don’t think that far out then the competition already has you beat, because they are thinking that far out.

Continuous improvement is a business necessity in today’s competitive online climate. When the search engines have such a strong influence over how businesses reach customers and potential customers, and when most businesses rise or fall based on how well they can market themselves to the search engines, you have to always improve your business model to be able to adapt to the ever-changing world of search. In essence, you have to be able to move at the speed of search. Is your business up to this type of task?

You’re right Nick. We must do something to be found on top of the search results OR we may not even be considered an existing site.

I think there are two elements that are the safest stuff to focus on for better rankings in these search engines no matter how much their rules change:

1) Fresh useful content

2) Lots of quality links
