The wild wild west returns yet again

by info

Carolyn Shelby posted an interesting article at her blog about a website that is using one of the oldest an obvious spamdexing techniques there is at

http://www.cshel.com/seosem/2007/05/how-well-does-the-google-algo-catch-spamdexers/

I was actually a little surprised. I know many of us build a few sites to send some linking juice to our sites, however parking 5000 or more domains on a parking page template meant to send links to the main site is a tad overboard, especially when they are all identical replicated website. That should trip a few filters here and there, or so some engines would have us think… But it sure works and I do notsee any of the engines doing anything about it since her article was posted. I expect more than a few black hats are already on this bandwagon.

Upcoming SEO Grab Bag from SES New York

by Jjones

As the week comes to an end and Search Engine Strategies New York winds down and packs up in anticipation for the next conference in Columbus Ohio I am sure we will all have our hands full with the media that will be created from this conference.

This is the first time SEOFox has appeared on scene at SES and I’m certain it will not be the last appearance made by our highly talented staff.  I myself look forward to picking up a few tips and tricks our team has learned at the conference and I hope that they will be generous enough to share a few on our blog over the next couple of weeks.

I know many people that attended and I’ll be sure to write about anything I think might be useful to our readers as I discover what they brought back from the conference.

SES NYC 2007

by WilliamC

We are finally back from the Search Engine Strategies conferance. I have to say, the regulars who do that show all the time must have feet of steel. Or maybe my shoes just sucked. All in all though, it was an awesome event and trip. I have not been to Manhattan in too many years. My daughter Audrey and I took the horse drawn carrige trip around Central Park, then had fun finding various restaurants, stores, and boutiques in the area to browse around.

Back to the show, what can I say but that it rocked. I finally got to meet quite a few people we do business with, have done business with, and some we just have chatted with on the webmaster forums and blogs. The sessions I went to were professionally run, and I even caught a few tidbits that I did not already know, which made the trip worth it as well. WebmasterRadio.FM was there to cover the whole show live as usual and we had the chance to hang out at their booth a good bit of the time were were on he exhibit floor and meet some new people also.

The best part is that we were able to promote our newest business, GadgetSpark and the awesome sidebar gadgets we have had the pleasure of developing for numerous clients. GadgetSpark was a huge hit among all we talked to and I expect it will be doing much bigger and better things in the very near future because of it.

I am still feet-weary and sorta tired, so I will cut this installment shot and try to continue it later.  Have a great day everyone  :)

MyBlogLog Widgets suck!!

by WilliamC

Okay not really, but MyBlogLog uses javascript to produce nicely formatted "last [x] visitors" on your blog.

But the search engines do not read javascript…

Here is a simple little php script you can copy into a page that can display php.

This currently only works for the widgets that display the large icons with link text names. I am working on adding functionality for the other style and will post it here when it is done.

Simply put the widget code mybloglog gives you in the variable I provide and you can now pass some link love to your visitors profile pages as well as your own.

An example is live at http://www.seofox.com/widget.php

Code:
<?php

  // put your generated widget code from mybloglog here
  $mybloglog_widget_code = '';

  // DO NOT TOUCH BELOW HERE PLEASE
  $geturl = str_replace('<script type="text/javascript" src="', '', $mybloglog_widget_code);
  $geturl = str_replace('"></script>','', $geturl);
  $result = file_get_contents($geturl);
  $result = str_replace('mbl_pub_str += "', '', $result);
  $result = str_replace('";', '', $result);
  $result = str_replace('\"', '"', $result);
  $result = str_replace("<style type='text/css'>", "</script>\n<style type='text/css'>", $result);
  $result = str_replace('document.write(mbl_pub_str);', '', $result);
  $result = '<script>' . $result;
  echo "$result\n";
  echo "<a href=http://www.seofox.com target=new style=\"font-size:11px;\">SeoFox Enhanced</a>\n";

?>
