Hi to all,
"Google-watchers" remind me of "Russia-watchers" back in the Cold War days. Russia-watchers used to interpret every cryptic message out of the USSR that didn't really mean much, if anything, and interpret them into th (continued)...

It's not a bad idea to use Bing Webmaster Tools if you're not getting any "love" from Bing.
But be careful... Google owns 70% of US search and 90% of European. So spend your time where it will do the most good. Google Webmaster Tools may (continued)...

Ideally, you should know your topic well enough to write your own articles. Panda wants "original" and that is best met by writing from your own brain. For example, Nori's review of a hotel is based upon either staying there, when we vacati (continued)...
