Much has been said about Google collecting personal information from web surfers. Some people are even so disturbed by Google's data mining that they have completely banned Google from their web sites.

What exactly does Google know about you if you use their services? In this article, we try to collect a list of things that Google knows about you.

If you frequently browse any of the main search engine forums you know that probably 75% of most search marketer's efforts are on Google, at least in terms of organic or algorithmic search.

That is probably because Google is a tougher nut to crack, and does seem to bring back the most relevant results in many cases.

Further, Google tends to account for most of the search engine referrals many sites get. But does Google really account for that many search referrals because it does a good job? Or is it because people tend to optimize for Google, and what they are seeing are the net results?

Say the word "emotion" to a man, and he'll immediately jump out of his seat and run from the room! Utter the word "emotion" to a woman, and she begins to conjure up thoughts of romantic, long talks centered around feelings. However, speak the word "emotion" to a copywriter and s/he should see dollar signs. Why? Because a good command of subtle emotion is the key to copy that works.


User Friendliness: Do Computers Have to be Clinical and Boring?

While sleeping through a lecture recently I roused for just long enough to catch the lecturer saying that "Error messages should not try to be funny or amusing, they should be clear and concise". This got me thinking about the ever-elusive goal of user friendliness. The concept has changed much over the years with packages such as DOS going from being one of the easiest packages on the market, to now being complicated, convoluted, and ignored. I have begun to wonder why I am being taught that computers have to be boring to be user friendly.

Increasing from 32 Million U.S. Households in 2004 to 69 Million in 2010

NEW YORK, NY - June 2, 2005 -- JupiterResearch, a division of Jupitermedia Corporation (Nasdaq: JUPM), today released its annual forecasts of the U.S. online population and broadband access. Two JupiterResearch reports, entitled "Portrait of the Online Population: 2004-2010," and "JupiterResearch Broadband Forecast: Competitive Pricing and Increased Availability Speed the Decline of Dial-Up", present JupiterResearch's latest projections of the growth of Internet usage by American consumers. According to these reports, the overall online population in the United States is maturing and will grow relatively modestly over the next five years, from 75 million households at the end of 2004 to 88 million by the end of 2010. Residential broadband adoption, however, will increase dramatically from slightly under half of online households in 2004 to 78% of online households by the end of 2010.

Is Google having a tough time with their website limit?

If you are one to pay attention to what happens within the Google realm, you might find yourself thrown for a loop these days. As Google updates their results, it seems like they are having some issues dealing with so many new websites popping up.

Indexing 8 billion websites is quite an accomplishment for Google. As they are reluctant to increase this number, they are faced with many challenges in trying to keep some sites within these 8 billion pages while losing some others, after each update of their database.

So how do they determine which listings to lose?

Why PageRank Is Important

Ever since the Florida Update SEO and SEM firms have been speculating on what Google did and why they did it. We developed our own theory in which we believe Google used some of the Applied Semantics technology to build one of the world's largest ontological databases. In other words Google has been attempting to infer meaning on pages, and returning results matching or similar to that meaning.

While others dispute this and say the results are because of other algorithms, like the 'Hilltop' algorithm (which has many of the same parts of the ontological algorithms built into the Applied Semantics package) none dispute the fact that November 2003 was a turning point for Google.

It was also shortly after this happened that many began to realize that PageRank was playing less of a role in the overall rankings. Who would have thunk that Google was now saying "regardless of the PageRank sites that more closely match the query would be returned in the results?"

This led many to speculate that PageRank was dead and that we no longer need to focus on PageRank as it has little to no effect on final rankings. However, I'm here today to tell you that this isn't entirely true. And the reason I think this has to do with how Google, the physical system, works.
