Natural link building after Google Penguin 2.0

After Penguin 2.0 updates, everyone feels – link exchange is a BAD idea.

Link building online (virtual bonds) or real-life bonding with human beings works the same way.

As the adage goes - A person is KNOWN by the company he keeps. The concept is nothing different with Google and websites that link from one to the other.

One should build up links with websites that are relevant to one’s website. A wrong company or inappropriate website (with spam) will be of no use to anyone.

Google is not in opposition to natural link building, but SPAM websites. To solicit links through payment to increase page rank is illegal, and Google web-spam team may argue and take action against such websites.

On the other, if websites provide relevant content to the Internet users, and have natural inbound links from others (without any payment) then Google should have no problem with websites.

Matt and the web-spam team of Google are after unnatural and paid links. What do readers think about it?

Google Play Music All Access to compete Xbox Music, Spotify and others

Google is here with music subscription service (‘Radio without rules’) to give a tough time to Xbox Music, Spotify, Pandora, Rdio and many others.

The US users will be the first to benefit from this service of Google, and listen to millions of musical tracks, through their tech-gadgets.

After a free trial for a month, users will have to pay $9.99 to utilize this service. A discounted service is available for the early adopters.

Some say, Google Play Music All Access will not be ‘game changer’ thing or be able to leave a mass impact on people as there are other key players around.

Google Penguin 2.0 updates in a few weeks, says Matt

The head of web spam team at Google, Matt Cutts, gives a hint about Penguin updates, through his Twitter post.

In the next few weeks, Google plans to roll out Penguin 2.0 version, to ward off SPAMMERS from its search engine page results.

When some rejoice over the Next Generation of Penguin, there are some who may want to re-examine their website content and online marketing strategies.

First Penguin update was on 24th April 2012. The second Penguin version came on 25th May 2012, and the third was on 5th October 2012.

After this data, some may wonder, whether this would be Penguin 2.0 or Penguin 4 updates, from Google.

The explorer edition of Google Glasses

Google glass had been making headlines on media, and finally some have their first pair of project glasses.

The explorer edition models cost some $1500. It was time for them to try, what’s so remarkable about Google’s futuristic glasses. Unlike usual spectacles, Google glasses have a digital lens on the right, attached to the frame.

Google feels everyone is right-eye dominant. One may have to cope with the right-sided lens pair (of Glasses) as Google does not have any plans at present for the left-sided pair.

One can take photos with the 5-megapixel camera attached with the Glasses, through the touch-sensitive right arm or voice commands.
