Google - Showing more results from a domain

(0 votes)
Google has launched a change to their ranking algorithm that will make it much easier for users to find a large number of results from a single site. For queries that indicate a strong user interest in a particular domain, like [exhibitions at amnh], we’ll now show more results from the relevant site

Prior to the change, only two results from www.amnh.org would have appeared for this query. Google now determine that the user is likely interested in the Museum of Natural History’s website, so seven results from the amnh.org domain appear. Since the user is looking for exhibitions at the museum, it’s far more likely that they’ll find what they’re looking for, faster. The last few results for this query are from other sites, preserving some diversity in the results.

Google state that they are always reassessing their ranking and user interface, making hundreds of changes each year. Google expect that this improvement will help users find deeper results from a single site, while still providing diversity on the results page.

How Often Do You Look At Your Own Website?

(1 vote)

Seriously, how often do you really look at your own web site?

Web site owners are generally so busy running their companies that updating or refreshing their sites is not normally high on their list of priorities. Unfortunately, this oversight can and often does have seriously negative effects on their businesses.

Is the information contained on the site still relevant?

If your chosen daily paper was an exact replica of the previous day’s edition, week after week, month after month, it is an absolute certainty that before too long you would stop buying it – the same principle applies to website visitors! If your website content does not change often enough, people will stop looking at it.

Could the look of the site be deterring existing and would-be customers?
