Do stats from Analytics like bounce rate and time on site count in ranking a page?
Here’s a short video about an interesting question:
Do stats from Google Analytics (i.e.: bounce rate, time on site etc) count in ranking a page?
In short Matt’s answer is: NO however I suspect that key data like “Time on site” is a factor. It must be.
Think about this:
would you send traffic to a site that does not manage to keep his visitors for more than a few seconds? Probably not…

that’s great to hear Matt but we, the end user, are going to have to take your word for it. There’s no way for us to know if that is true.

- Google local optimization tip: you do not necessarily need links, but citations to your office address and most especially good reviews. #
- Use the #keyword #difficulty #tool to figure out what are the easiest keywords to target: http://www.seochat.com/seo-tools/keyword-difficulty/ #
- If a #blog requires you to register to submit a #comment, fill out your details in the profile to avoid being labeled as a spammer. #
- When making comments on another blog post use of a #Gravatar, which puts a photo next to your comment. #
- Make sure your registration form and/or shopping cart are super easy to use to avoid #abandonment. #
- Provide a compelling #call-to-action (for example a click-here image) to improve your landing pages #conversions. #
- Use facebook ads as an alternative to Google #Adwords for your paid campaigns #
Is changing webhost a problem from an SEO perspective?
He’s a nice short video from Matt Cutt’s about moving sites to a different webhost.
In short, if you are changing your IP address make sure that:
- Set your DNS TTL (Time to Live) very low (around 5 mins)
- Switch the DNS to point from old to new
- If you set your DDL then live both sites live for at least 24 hrs

Updates to Google Search Interface
A few days ago Google’s folks quietly (as they usually do) updated their search interface.
Many nicknamed this interface the Jazz interface. Although Google engineers really what they do, there are tons of bad reviews.
In a nutshell this is what’s new:
- There is an added a left panel with quick access to relevant options and tools
- Lots of other tweaks and a visual refresh (of somewhat dubious taste IMHO)
- There is now a three-pane UI:
Search options column
Search results column
Search ADS column
The part I like most is the “Try something different” in the options column (far left) where the tool will suggest other queries that are related to your original one.
Take a quick look at the video below and you’ll see what I mean…comments are welcome
