Yahoo! Search Index Update

Yahoo! updated their search index on August 25th. I haven't noticed any changes on our end, but I'd check your rankings and see if you were affected. Yahoo! typically incorporates these updates to enhance relevancy in their serps... Unfortunately, i haven't actually seen this happen...yet..

Google Launches Enterprise Software

Yesterday, Google launched a new edition to their arsenal of software: Google Enterprise. This includes Gmail, Calendar, Voice Chat (which connects to Gmail contacts...nice feature..) and web hosting. This sounds great, but i'm very interested in the hosting service. Will websites that utilize this gain an advantage over websites hosted elsewhere? Google have stated updates performed on Google hosted pages will be "indexed in a few hours" - This is definitely an online marketing opportunity before this new service becomes saturated with new sites.

RSS Sitemaps and Yahoo! Site Explorer

Howdy! Guys, i suppose you can call this blogger bankruptcy :-) The WorkMedia crew has been completely covered up making money for our clients...I hope you understand.

Today, as I'm working on increasing revenue for a client of mine (i'm sorry i simply can't stop!!) I hit a road block submitting an updated rss feed using Yahoo! Site Explorer. This has always been a smooth process unitl now.. I continue to receive "url not found" during my submission. What to do..what to do.. submit a support ticket? Seriously? Nah, being the first to discover an issue on a Yahoo! site is equivalent to winning the lottery... the odds are pretty slim. So I decided to try a new format. I decided to use a URL LIST text file. I uploaded the file, submitted it to Yahoo! and voila!! All is well at camp WorkMedia.
