Google’s new search option

Tag:, , ,


Google has recently introduced a new Google Search Option which gives users more control over their search results. This new search option allows users to “filter” their search results.

Users can select to view from a time frame of “anytime”, “recent results”, “the past 24 hours”, “the past week” or the “past year”. There is also an option to sort by date or relevance of the data, images from the page, more text  or just standard results.

Also available is the searches for related results in standard view or view in a more visual way called Wonder Wheel.

When a user performs a search on Google, there is a link under the search box which says “Show options”. When you click on this link, a left side navigation menu will appear which allows you to choose the options mentioned above.

With these new features, will SEO be affected? Is there another new algorithm to be looked into in order to get good ranking in the search results? Just to take some example, in order to get good ranking using video option, obviously you need to have video content in your page. To rank in forums searches, you have to have forum participation. And for reviews, you may have to get your products reviewed as often as possible by others or you may want to conduct reviews of other products on your site.

Well, these are just some strategies that may increase your chances. It is hard to know what Google is up to.

Google’s new algorithm?

Tag:, , , ,

Google being the giant in the search business has kept its search ranking algorithm a well kept secret and even with that, users will try all ways to unveil the secret and cybercriminals have been using blackhat SEO techniques to manipulate the search rankings.

Initially they were marginally successful and manage to make their newly created webpage rank quite well. But as time goes by, they have become very effective. A reporter has reported in one of his article that while researching for news story, all his five top results have led to fake pages.

It looks like Google’s top secret is no more a secret. At one time, manipulators can only guess how Google algorithm works. Now it seems that there is no more guessing games.

Very clearly, if Google fails to tackle this manipulation, users will lose trust and Google may soon see the end of its grand old days. A Googler has revealed that a ranking change is pending to put an end to spam of this kind.

Google’s famous algorithm has performed better than any other at weeding out spammy webpages and malicious results. But back then, the version of the Web was more static. The live Web presents some new challenges and lets see how Google can overcome this problem.
