I'd really start looking into building more branded links to your root domain and internal pages. Sites with a heavy anchor text focus definitely got a bite taken out of their traffic since May.

I think SEO has almost come in a circle which is why a lot of stuff in this article is so relevant. Originally people just built pages, and whatever had the best content ranked best. Then people started pulling content tricks. Google then originally started valuing backlinks, and over the years people have tried all sorts of backlinking tricks. As Google develops more and more ways to ignore some of these, quality content and quality backlinks have again come to the fore. Great article/post.

For example, the search features on del.icio.us, twitter and actual visual search engines like viewzi make research almost fun, lol To me Google still seems to have the most comprehensive information but the sources for niche specific data have exploded wonderfully.

If your site is user optimized with some search optimization, then it should do well. That's definitely the best things to focus on.

In this case, I got a little too into the stats and such while doing some research, but overall, I think it's interesting to see the differences in search results between the three top engines and how it relates to anchor text, meta data, etc. Thanks.

So far, I've focused on quality content & using keywords. By keeping up with your suggestions and learning as I go along, I hope to grow my site tremendously.
