		<title>Are Yahoo Buying Links?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been away a while again, so to quickly answer a few of the usual questions &#8211; No I am not dead, no the site is not for sale and yes I am still trying to write here, although only when I have time which is not a lot at the moment unfortunately.
Anyway, I don&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>Using Clients To Rank For SEO</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is another subject I have been meaning to discuss that I haven&#8217;t seen debated a huge amount openly even though everyone in the industry is aware of it.
Simply checking the UK agencies ranking for &#8216;SEO&#8217; (as an example) it&#8217;s very easy to spot that some of them are using their own clients as a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Big Geo Problems Still Exist In Google UK SERPS</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It was back at the start of June that a number of SEOs spotted a change in the Google UK search results where by US sites seemed to be ranking unusually high for queries in Google UK. Geo filters have always been fairly strong in Google UK for generic phrases for obvious reasons and many, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So Microsofts new search engine brand Bing is live in the UK.
I think some negative matching might be required for Bingo PPC advertisers. :-)

		<title>Googles Disappearing Blog Post Phenomenon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is something I have been meaning to discuss for a longtime and is not something that I have really seen anyone talk about much.
I noticed this quite sometime back when Google started crawling and indexing new blog pages within minutes and ranking this content very quickly in their search results.
Crawling and indexing content so [...]]]></description>

		<title>Linkfromdomain Command &#8211; Much Underused</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I still love the linkfromdomain command on Live.com. Like MSN / Live (perhaps Kumo?!) search platform, it&#8217;s often forgotten about. But actually it still has much value for SEO. Here are 3 quick reasons why -
1) Check Your Outbound Links &#8211; You can&#8217;t always control who links to you, but you can control who you [...]]]></description>

		<title>This Site May Harm Your Computer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Looks as though Google has a bit of a problem today because it&#8217;s labeling every site with the &#8216;this site may harm your computer&#8216; warning accross all it&#8217;s SERPS. This seems to be on Google.co.uk and Google.com. Oops.

Even for their own sites.

		<title>Hyves Subdomain Leak &amp; Analysis</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So if you missed it yesterday Mediadonis posted about a very strange subdomain trick that he and others claim allowed anyone to check if a domain was penalised in someway by Google (from selling links or loss of pagerank from other &#8216;malicious&#8217; means).
Google have since this morning stopped this from working, but the basis was [...]]]></description>

		<title>How To Use Match Types For Maximum Return</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As noted by Barry over at Seroundtable, apparently Google is now recommending that you do not have multiple match types for the same search phrase. So for example, you shouldn&#8217;t have the keyword &#8216;golf clubs&#8217;, set on broad, phrase and exact match types.
Broad -   golf clubs
Phrase &#8211; &#8220;golf clubs&#8221;
Exact -   [golf clubs]
Now I haven&#8217;t heard [...]]]></description>

		<title>Adwords In Google Search Suggest &#8211; Scary</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Google have started testing Adwords ads within Google suggest, like this example below from Search Engine Land -

Normally Google do not charge for clicks on new advert testing like this which is good news. But for me it&#8217;s quite scary how far they are taking the expansion of where they show their adverts.
