Yes, this is the truth and I just hate it, Blogs are overhyped….recently I came across some Indian guys starting a blog network which will have blogs on 50 different channels…so now the hype starts…people gets excited about the thing “Woha..50 channels…new blog…amazing…will love to read” haah but they don’t know that it is another attempt for SEO and generate some hefty ad revenue…I am saying this after going through the list of blog topics they are going to cover…topics varied a lot… Diabetes, Depression, VOIP, Health, Night Clubs, Gardening, Kitchens etc….. to me it looks like typical example of attempt to generate many pages and generate revenue through ads…(I will love if they can prove me wrong :-) )

Many biggies blogged about the much hyped blog (though most of them had commented negative things)

I do not understand why people hype such small things? In the end it is going to burst like bubble and that’s for sure….

I am not naming the site since I do not want to get into name games but if you are in search engine and blogs circuit you will probably know about what I am talking about…

Anyways, let’s see how they come up with…today they are going to launch their site…

Just read about it..Google has started mailing the sites which are considered to be outside the google webmaster guidelines…they have not started mailing all the sites which they come across but soon they may start mailing all the faulty sites…

So if you have site with hidden keywords, spam links then wait for google’s email :D haha

Google updated their Backlinks and PageRank database today. The process is still going on so you might see old PR but I think backlinks are updated in all the datacenters…

Check this post in webproworld for more info.

Few months back Google had announced about nofollow tag and of course their own site blogger.com was on the list to have nofollow tag added to the links

But today when I checked a blog on blogger, it seems that they have forgotten their own words…

I posted comment on a blog and chose option “other” where you have to enter name and web page…

So out of curiosity I just checked the source code and voila…they missed the nofollow tag haha..

So this means now I can easily spam on blogger haha :P kidding
