It seemed like everybody was talking about Charlie Sheen, which is exactly what he wanted. When his tirades first began, it was interesting and humorous to watch.

Google’s Update is Why Your Marketing Needs to be Diversified
Google has power. They know it. We know it. Likely, that power won’t change anytime soon and all we’re left to do is try to understand their rules and algorithms as best as we possibly can to engage in tactics that will allow our website to rank well in the search engine’s results pages. Google’s recent algorithm change that targets “content farms”, or content sites that are of low-quality, impacts nearly 12% of queries according to Google. This is a pretty significant number and the results have been seen pretty quickly. This is a change that not only affects searches, but also affects people on a more personal level.
