Chip’s B2B Tip #24 - Google's Paralysis by Analysis?
.
B2B Tip #24 - Has Google broken its own algorithm?
.
Hear me out before you judge me on this ... because this post is more of a case study than some sideways promotion of this B2B Tips blog ...
From time to time I search for my keyword phrase for this blog in a half dozen search engines.
Wouldn't you?
On Yahoo, AllTheWeb, and AltaVista - for the phrase "B2B Tips" - I'm still on page one near the top.
Using WebFerret, a metasearch engine that queries multiple search engines and ranks all the results ... this B2B Tips blog is page one, number 11 of all B2B sites ...
The other day - on Google I was on page 3. Now I don't know where I am. But I can tell you that there are golf sites and a whole bunch of other nonsense in the first few pages of results for B2B Tips (no - I'm not talking about paid sponsor links.)
Work with me here ... I'm interested on B2B Tips to help me in my business, so I go to Google and type in the popular acronym B2B (tips) ...
Google gives me a golf site and other un-related sites ... and leaves out a blog specifically designed and populated with B2B tips, techniques, and musings?
Has Google gotten so overly analytical, gotten so focused on chasing the money, tried so hard to be King of the Hill, and tried so diligently to avoid the scammers taking advantage of it ... that Google has broken it's own algorithm?
Regardless of where I show up, as of late I've found that Google just "ain't what she used to be" - no matter which search terms I use ... so I'm using more reliable search engines now ...
Any opinions?
