Byron Gordon, SEO-PR, interviews Avinash Kaushik, Analytics Evangelist, author, and keynoter at SES Chicago 2010. Avinash describes his love for using tag clouds to help visualize tons of keywords and cites the example of the LDS (mormon) Church, which features great diversity in its keyword terms to attract a great deal of Web traffic. LDS church ranks in the top 3 on Google for the term ‘church.’ Avinash says search marketers can learn a lot from the seo work done by the LDS church to its website. Next, Avinash talks about the overemphasis companies place on the head of search rather than the tail. Companies spend too much time fixated on just 10 terms instead of on the magic that long-tail keyword terms provide. To use advanced visualization techniques can help companies bring all of the necessary data on a single page and give them success in identifying those keyword terms that will boost their SEO. Finally, Avinash stresses how companies need to move away from the traditional model of revenue and conversion rates and judge SEO in terms of the economic value it provides. Economic value is quantifying what value was added to the business for every job the site is trying to do.

Danny Sullivan (Search Engine Land), “The Search Platform: Friend Or Vampire?”

Groupama is left with no steerage after a collision, and heads straight for the sea wall on day two of the Extreme Sailing Series at Cowes Week. In race 11 (the fourth inshore race), approaching the windward mark, Yann Guichard’s Groupe Edmond de Rothschild hit Franck Cammas’ Groupama 40 wiping out both rudders, leaving Groupama with no steerage whatsoever. Groupama 40 were heading straight for the shore at speed and for safety the crew leapt into the water to avoid the impact of hitting the sea wall – deciding they would prefer getting wet than being thrown forward on the boat and potentially injuring themselves.
