Anyone know a fairly easy way to measure the keyword value of the content/text on a specific page (vs. entire site)?

If you mean keyword density, here’s a free tool that gives you the density of all content on a specific page:

3PRIME is committed to utilizing the power of social media engines to tap the revenue potential of its promising union with EagleRivet.com.

I’m trying to get ads to perform better on my adwords account. Should I remove keywords from ad groups that have a low quality score?

- Danny S. 26 / M / Myrtle Beach, SC

Quality Score is a function of:

1) Relevance of ad copy to keywords
2) Relevance of landing page to keywords
3) Relevance of landing page to ad copy
4) Quality of landing page

You can improve your qscore by

1) Make tightly focused ad groups with smaller numbers of keywords in each.
2) Make sure your landing page is about the specific keywords your using in ad copy and bids
3) Improve your ad copy to use your keywords and related phrases

what do you mean by a “smaller number of keywords”
- Danny S. 26 / M / Myrtle Beach, SC

For a single ad group, keep your keywords to 7 or less, this enables you to tailor the ad copy to the keywords you’re bidding on.

WTF!!!!

Google
and Verizon close to prioritizing Content

just terrible.

I believe I am spending about $2 per click with Google but some of the site is a little confusing and it seems that I might be wasting my money … Is there a good source of information to help learn setting up adwords that you would suggest?

Here’s a couple of sets of results:

Pay the most attention to google forums and webpages for learning how to navigate the platform.

Collectively we decided to give shoppers the biggest possible bang for their buck. This is why we’ve set incredibly low price points for all of the Simple Patios products. We thought about giving them away for free, but that turned out to be a poor business model. You’ll find that our line of outdoor furniture is the least expensive out of all of the others available online. And since each piece is backed by a 50 year warranty it’s obvious we believe in the quality of these products. Just think, that means if you purchase a hammock from us, it’s the last one you have to buy for fifty years! While it’s true that the amount of relaxation provided by hammocks is exponentially increased by the number you have, you’ll only need to buy one from us.

For more information on our line of Patio Furniture you can visit SimplePatios.com or the brand new outdoor furniture section at FloorMall.com.

oohhhh, yeaaahh

The new results page for image searches is really aesthetically pleasing (don’t believe me? Check out this search I did on waterfalls) and I wonder if this is a sign of things to come. What do you guys think?

But only several hours into my first day, I was complaining that there was nothing I wanted to see. I don’t read webcomics, I don’t watch nearly as much anime as I used to and if I bought a sword I’d only poke my eye out. New York Comic Con (sorry for the name drop) was the only other con I’d ever been to. And at first the only thing ConnectiCon did was make me wish I was there instead.

When I’m at the NY con I always feel like there’s something I have to see–whether it’s a Q&A with Stan Lee or a demo of a video game that isn’t anywhere else yet. I was actually griping aloud about this in the hotel bar (which is thankfully a stones throw from the convention center) when I was told it was unfair to compare the two. It was one of those bar conversations strangers will occasionally engage you in and you find yourself agreeing profusely just to get out of it. This guy went on to tell me it wasn’t fair to compare the two because the NY Comic Con was run by corporations and ConnectiCon was run by fans for fans. And I agreed with him at the time because, honestly, he was creeping me out. But, later on I realized he was right. It really wasn’t right to compare the two. At the NY Comic Con I always feel like I’m under the gun and forced to see everything I can. Most of my time there is spent in transit or standing in line as I go from one spot to another. But I realized that for me, ConnectiCon was less about seeing and more about doing.

It took a while but I realized it was okay to fight in a foam sword tournament and it was okay to play one of those weird RPG board games I don’t understand. And it was okay to be eliminated by two 11 year old children in Smash Brothers and be unable to scream obscenities at them because their father is right behind you.

I’m not saying there won’t be events or panels that you’ll want to check out but I feel that ConnectiCon is less of a “must-see” convention and more of a “can-do” one. And despite my initial reaction I’m looking forward to 2011.

Pictues! (this is what you all came for right?)
