    Content is King? Google is the best SE? Not anymore.

    Content is King? Google is the best SE? Not anymore.

    Has anyone heard of bizify.co.uk

    IMO this business directory looks very poor. The site structure is awful - I can't see category or location pages at all. Even a simple breadcrumb is missing. Comparing this directory to Yell is like comparing a shopping trolley to a Ferrarri :)

    Google - Hard to find what i am looking for

    SEO can look confusing but is actually not. If you don't try to manipulate the SE's you should be ok, no matter how many algorithmic updates Google/Yahoo will release. Here is an interesting interview with Matt Cutts (head of the Google Webspam Team)...

    Do you think lack of content is affecting our rankings?

    If I were in your place, I would research the products on the web and will write a editorial review on every single product. These reviews will summarise the good and the bad points of each product. That task will be time consuming but well worth the effort. On the first place - your users will...
