Google Continues to Change and You get harder
and harder to find!
Thousands of web sites fell off the first page of
Google rankings 4 weeks ago when Google engineers
rolled out a new Google Local algorithm in the
United States.
The success of many businesses are tied to rankings
on Google. Some search gurus are predicting
thousands of businesses are going to fail and go
bankrupt. You've got to stay on top of this part of
your game if you are going to grow a sustainable
business in this upcoming year.
If you dropped off the organic rankings you have to
act!
This latest change (nicknamed "Pigeon") determines
where websites are listed on Google. Greg Gifford,
of SearchEngineLand, highly recommended joining
directories and updating every directory you are
already on.
In his paragraph “Get Your Barnacle On” Gifford
explains:
“Barnacle SEO is the practice of attaching yourself
to the “SEO authority” of larger sites and ... now
that Pigeon has bumped up directories in the local
listings, there are more barnacle opportunities than
ever... Make sure you’re listed on those
directories, and make sure your listings are
completely filled out and optimized.” — Greg Gifford
What you can do right now
Act like a barnacle - Attach your site to industry
specific directories as fast as you can. If you have
dropped them you might want to reconsider the SEO
value and strength those sites bring. If you are
