I despise spammers and how they make money (even though it can be tempting) because it is never really long lasting. No one benefits, but them. Why should they get charity? Great blogs have amazing content that deservedly should be high on search engines because it will really help people in their lives in some way. It is true business. I am curious to know what are good techniques to get people subscribing to your RSS Feed?

Nice ligatures on your name and blog design! I need a blog redesign, did you design it yourself? I'm convinced that I need better branding...I just haven't the time to do it. Now that I'll use it in my work as a internet marketing coach, I think it needs some work. I want less geek, more web reporter. Janet Alister,

There will be definitely more changes to come but I think as of right now blog's aren't a huge factor in search engine success but they are important. What I'm wondering is how a new algorithm with blogs factored into will use the "nofollow" tag.

I wonder how much of that they're already using in their algo for blogsearch as opposed to things they might implement at a later date. A lot of stuff I've read in their other patents seem to be things for future use. For example, they might not be scanning our email to see which blogs are being mentioned, but they wanted to file for a patent because they might want to do it in the future...or maybe they just wanted to patent the idea so nobody else could beat them to it. Also, like Alister says in his comment, that patent is old, so maybe they've got a lot of time and brain power behind them now, so they've likely added additional ways of ranking blog posts.

I had a lot of fun writing that post and trying to think below the surface about what Google was thinking. One thing I didn't make too clear that with hindsight I would have liked to... that patent is OLD, meaning that what we see now as Blogsearch is based on about 18 months more "brain power" on Google's part... of course I have no idea what that means in terms of refinements/changes. We can only speculate and TEST! Thanks again :) -Alister Janet,

Thanks! This post is ugly with all the bold. My template is messed and it doesn't show links if they are within bulleted lists. Do you Twitter? Best, Janet Darren,
