Winners need entries in both Google/ MSN and Yahoo with Globalwarming Awareness2007

25 01 2007

Whereas in previous contests, players with the biggest collection of inbound pagerank textlinks could win these contests. At this moment it is the quest for a position in all three searchengines.

So let’s take a look at what’s the actual difference between Yahoo, Google and Msn. Well firstoff MSN doesn’t bother to update very frequently, this is something you will have to take in account if you want to win this one. In addition to that, blogspot entries seem to do very well in MSN.

Secondly Yahoo seems to like spammy/ over optimized pages and mostly disregards inbound pagerank/ textlinks or doesn’t evaluate them for much in their algo’s. Also, Yahoo is less frequently updated than Google, but updates more than MSN.

Thirdly Google, seo’s with a lot of inbound pagerank, numerous collections of  directories and linkvaults can win this one. Obviously, you also need a well-optimized site, but that’s no problem for the most of us.

Good luck other contestants.
