A couple of days ago Google switched on a new search algorithm, new Google Hummingbird Algorithm, the system it uses to sort through all the information it has when you search and come back with answers.

It was merged together with 15th anniversary of Google.

We love Google for its great search engine, for helping us finding the most relevant information, for collecting so many information globally.

I believe that Google is a great source for education, business and inspiration. It gives equal opportunity for all people with Internet access to the knowledge and information.

Yes, we are in an information age.

Recently I read a couple of post about SEO changes due to Google recent algorithm. It looks like Google finally judges the content value, brand and technical preparedness – not links, backlinks and all SEO hidden activities.

This will change the whole situation.

“Hummingbird” Algorithm

I see it very well on my own websites. It looks that natural search rules, like great content, great meta tags, alt tags and speed of website, are the most important now.

Google said that Hummingbird is paying more attention to each word in a query, ensuring that the whole query — the whole sentence or meaning are taken into account, rather than particular words. The goal is that pages matching the meaning do better, rather than pages matching just a few words.

I see it – my websites statistics show better data now and are more visible in natural search.

Paid Search – Google Adwords

On the other hand I noticed that Google Adwords take now 6 lines on each page and sidebar.

It looks like it is the very important change and income source for Google.

Let’s see if this recent change has impact on average conversion rate.

We managed a couple of campaigns recently for our clients and we noticed many major changes: more functions and more customization possibilities.

No man is an island, entire of itself every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls it tolls for thee. ~ John Donne

It is a great beginning of our understanding what the social network means.

Not only online social network but overall – our family, close friends, friends from school, from work, friends from our societies, people that we meet everyday on the street and on our way to work.

We are connected.

What is the main goal of social network?

1. deeper relationship or

2. better understanding of ourselves and brands

3. building our image or keeping it

4. getting more relations?

I think these are the main goals of being there – in facebook, twitter, goldenline, linkedin, pinterest.com etc.

the question is what our strategy should be in such world

Think about it positively

It can help you in your life by: getting better products, better services, better customers, better knowledge, trusted reviews.

Of course you can feel some manipulation. But you are wise and you will know when it happens.

Not all companies want to spend their money in social network because of time, because of difficulty to maintain the interest.

We have the same problems. On the other hand our clients and friends prefer get better information form time to time.

Maybe your clients would like to get it on quarterly basis for example.

Try to understand their needs and expectations. They will come back to you.
