If it weren’t for the fact that everyone used Google I’d be in a position not to care about it. But unfortunately I’m not in that position and currently I’m getting fed up with it. Google Losing Pages – in the last couple of weeks I’ve seen more and more pages being ‘lost’ by Google. [...]

Another example of Google Local being rubbish
January 20, 2010 – 5:16 pm
It is to Google eternal disservice that the local results for queries delivers such utter rubbish within its result set – too much rubbish. People who are not helping me get to useful data filling up the entire system or trying to get affiliate commissions just wasting what can be a really useful service. I’ve [...]
Intelligence (Beta) option in Google Analytics
October 28, 2009 – 10:01 am
I’ve just logged into Google Analytics, and found a new option just below the dashboard option listed as Intelligence Beta. Can’t find anything about it on the Google Blog It would appear to allow the functionality to set trigger points for the website in relation to the traditional Google Analytics metrics and dimensions.

March 4, 2009 – 10:17 am
Just got an email from PPC Andy about this Google offering online training in Google Analytics. I’m trying to pencil in time over the next few weeks to run through some of the stuff they’ve got listed – I really like messing about with the custom reporting modules just now but it looks like there [...]
Google Chrome – Crashing with Symantec (Part 2)
September 3, 2008 – 3:39 pm
As mentioned in previous post you can turn off the sandboxing in Google Chrome to stop it conflicting with Symantec Endpoint Protection. However this is really a bit of a hack and as the sandbox is one of the cool things in Google Chrome turning it off isn’t really a great solution. As sandboxing means [...]
Interrupted Gmail Service
August 13, 2008 – 7:54 am
Yesterday I started hearing from folk that their GMail account had gone haywire. They were locked out or the system kept stalling – and similar experiences were found in Google Calendar and other Google Applications. These issues have now been resolved with Google engineers sorting everything out pretty quickly. Its a little bit wierd – [...]

Through my RSS readings this morings I came across a number of places talking about the “Google Boogie” – yep I’s never heard of it before either. From what I’ve read it came from Oyster Web and was then blogged at Spiderwriting (Bill get your permalinks fixed).
Blogging Rule 2 – Dont Steal Content
August 15, 2007 – 7:59 am
Content is what drives visitors to your website. Interesting content will keep people coming back. I see no problem with joining an online debate and starting a similar thread. But for god sake please be original. I just got a comment by the guy/gal that runs howtogettrafficonblogs.blogspot.com. Decent enough little comment. Unfortunately for them I’m [...]
SEO Spam and Saving peoples jobs
August 10, 2007 – 2:06 pm
Ok. Was running a quick backlink check on some clients and a legacy client who I used to work for is in there. And there links jumped – nigh on doubled so I get a wee twinkle in my eye and start trying to work out why. Lo and behold their new SEO company, the [...]
Abuse your PPC to make more money in SEO
August 2, 2007 – 1:09 pm
After years of looking down my nose at PPC and seeing it as cheap, easy and little more than a bidding war that burns cash faster than the KLF on a beach I’ve came to the conclusion I was right. Maybe not the derision I feel for PPC but certainly the rest. The change has [...]
