Big Daddy havoc
Google have been doing one of their periodic
updates. This one's called Big Daddy and it has
caused havoc with quite a few sites out
there.
These updates usually come with stories of sites
being dropped or losing Page Rank, and this one is no
exception.
Our experience with this one
indicates that relatively static sites have had pages
dropped or put on to the Google 'Supplementary' list.
What can you do if your site has suffered? Not
much - it looks like Google are still tuning it. But it's
another good reason to not put all your
search
engine eggs in the Google basket! Don't forget the
other engines and directories - they can all help bring
customers to your site.

After what seems an epic development project, the
new Photonic
Solutions webshop site has been launched.
Designed to fit
in with their corporate site, it
allows customers to buy laser and
optoelectronic products online.
The site includes integration with their in-house
quotation system, whereby
customers can purchase previous quotations by
dropping them into their
shopping cart. It also handles sophisticated VAT
calculations for worldwide
B2B transactions, and comes with a back-end order
workflow system to process
orders.
As Douglas Neilson, MD at Photonic
Solutions, says, "The new system
makes it easier for our customers to buy, and saves
us time and effort in
fullfillment".

Google (and all the search engines, for that matter),
are always tinkering with their search ranking
algorithms. These algorithims are the rules
they use to decide the importance of a site.
As advertisers, it is very important that their results
should be as accurate as possible and should not be
infulenced by tricks and hacks.
Age and activity of a site has always had some
importance, but lately we've seen examples where
too much activity on previously dormant sites has
been penalised.
So if you're finally going to do that work to your site
that you've been putting off for years, watch out for
the Google Speed Limit!
