It’s time to start with web 3.0. Google has changed the way they rank each page. If you are still hunting for incoming links, you can drop it now and start to focus on getting your site higher in Digg and YouTube.

In the New Year, Google seems to be changing their algorithm and making the search results more time related. The leading search engine has been ranking items from popular sites like Digg higher than factual or historical sites like Wikipedia. Is this a move towards a Web 3.0? In other news, Kara Ratliff reports that Yahoo’s Chief Performance Expert, Steve Souders plans on joining the Google team on January 7th, 2008. For more details, keep visiting http://CashTheWeb.com

Here’s a hint: Do a bit of research on those press/news distribution sites and blog providers that currently have high PageRank from Google. Then focus your efforts on those. You’ll find that your additional content not only ranks highly, but shows up relatively quickly (usually within a day or 2, if not a few hours). Take about a month just to focus on creating additional content that can be mass-distributed to major sites like YouTube and Digg. Content that can be shared becomes viral marketing, and will do you much better than a few static websites in the end!

Cheers to Google!

Sounds Nonsense? Ye! It was to me too until last Tuesday. But not any more!

I received an email from Google stating that my account is banned because there were invalid clicks. For a moment, I was shocked! Read the mail again, yes that’s what the e-mail stated. Another surprise is that there is no mention of where the invalid click come from or executed. Thus you have to believe blindly what is told to you!

I started to brain storm how this could have happened! I never asked anyone to click on ads on my site. But I did the marketing within my FaceBook, Digg, stumble, Reddit, etc. In my opinion there is nothing wrong about it.

Do you agree with me?

The other possibility is my shared Internet connection. I do share my ADSL connection with my neighbors through a wireless router. They got to know about my web site through FaceBook. I think they could have clicked some of the ads!

Since the IP would point back to the connection I am on, Google thought the clicks originated from me! Fine, but I explained the situation to Google in the only one appeal you can make!

One thing is clear. Getting AdSense account band is easier than writing this post.

I am yet to receive a reply to my appeal, if they opt to reply. Will follow up and post here!
