share the Optimization of the links on the site

Filed under: internet — Tags: , — admin @ 4:57 am

Link from one page to another page to enter the door, is the way for a Web site to another site , the network node (abstract nodes) between the lines, is a search engine based on the value given to the right. Link link optimization is to improve the way , to increase the value of links to the right side, should belong to SEO techniques.

The following are some personal experiences as a few points, you can share with you.
1. To avoid the use of images and Flash

Can be described in the text can be captured, can be analyzed is first choice.

Relatively speaking, the search engine only by pictures alt to determine the content of pictures, so please do not leak alt write, not write without basis. However, in spite of the alt consultation, the results would be better without the text. To this end I wrote a optimize the blog title of the article, about how to use the picture instead of text as a title.

Flash and turn on the link in addition to jumping, there is no point value, because search engines simply can not grasp the Flash content. My principle is that the wait will not have no choice but do not use Flash.

So please use a text description, do not use the picture as a title of the article, not to use Flash to do the welcome web site interface.
2. Link text description

Please try to let the text links page and turn in line. If you want search engines know that you chain to the concern of what the content of the page, then please use the text links relevant keywords.

For example: many people on the home page shows a summary of the article, and add a summary of the bottom “Read more” button. If the article is entitled “SEO optimization”, in fact, will be “Read more” changed “Read more about SEO optimization link” more appropriate.

However, please note that the entire page not to have the case dealt with the link, or a good natural point, otherwise the search engine would think that those are Spam links.
3. Do not repeat keywords

Perhaps you may want to have all your keywords into a link there, so search engines know that you link what to do can, of course, but careful not to repeat the keyword. Keyword was repeated 3 times you will not be another better link relevance, search engines will only be considered as Spam.

For example: now there is a link is “the subject of tutorials and建站Guide”, we can optimize for the “theme建站tutorials and techniques”, use similar terms mean to avoid the re-use.
4. Chain to Wikipedia

Google familiar with Wikipedia, he would know that you’re talking about.

For example: There is a article written on the topic of WordPress, then you can add keywords point to the Wikipedia page on WordPress, then Google will know that your article is about WordPress, but do not know whether to Baidu useful.
Summary

Do not deliberately, but rather natural, as long as good writing habits, the provision of semantic web pages of articles and friendly content, access to good rankings.
These are just their own thinking and summing up in peacetime, there is no special recognition, for informational purposes only.

Care Web site, service users, please do not SEO sensitive information.

A new round of search engine World War II broke out soon

Filed under: internet — Tags: , , , — admin @ 1:55 am

hello,welcome to www.idarkfallgold.com

A new round of search engine World War II broke out soon

Microsoft Thursday announced that its new search engine “Bing”  launched next week, the company director of the history of Live Search StefanWeitz subsequently accepted an interview with the outside world that Bing will be committed to changing the user’s search habits. Well-known U.S. financial magazine “Fortune” published in the online version of this text that the U.S. Internet search market, not only Microsoft, Yahoo, Google hope to erode market share, but recently the involvement of WolframAlpha, which means that the U.S. search engine market the forthcoming round of World War II broke out.

Old and new rivals

It is reported that last week, Microsoft this week unveiled a new search engine service, the development of code for Kumo, formally known as the Bing. Yahoo search is also on the search results have been adjusted to return to the content. Not only that, the new search engine service launched last week WolframAlpha. In WolframAlpha services, users need to type in the search query box problem, the search engine will return the answer directly to the user, rather than return to a lot of Web links.

U.S. Internet traffic monitoring bodies after comScore released statistics show that during April this year, Google in the U.S. search market share of 64.2%, Yahoo and Microsoft were 20.4% and 8.2%. It is obvious that Google search market in the United States still maintained its supremacy. Microsoft, Yahoo and WolframAlpha new and old competitors want to bring down Google, it is necessary to take other circuitous tactics.

U.S. market research firm YankeeGroup technology analyst Carl Ho (CarlHowe) said: If you want to compete with Google and positive way to attack is not feasible.
Since February last year, Microsoft has started negotiations with Yahoo, the two companies hope the merger of the search business, so that together to challenge Google. In “Wall Street Journal” blog site D: all the digital (D: AllThingsDigital) Wednesday D7 technology held under the auspices of the General Assembly, the Yahoo CEOCarolBartz said that Yahoo’s negotiations with Microsoft has been some progress, but The two sides still did not reach any substantive agreement.

More powerful

CollinsStewart British investment bank analyst (SandeepAggarwal) is expected, Microsoft and Yahoo is expected by the end of July this year on the search to reach a merger deal.

SandeepAggarwal believe that the Google search market in the United States to occupy the dominant position, if the present trend of development, its market share will grow further. In Google’s search traffic, the majority from its search home page. Microsoft and Yahoo’s search traffic, but mainly from the respective companies and the corresponding portal page content. In this way, Microsoft, Yahoo to challenge Google, the market for a substantial increase in difficulty. In the current circumstances, what Google has become synonymous with search.

U.S. well-known market research firm IDC analyst Susan Feldman (SusanFeldman) said: Everyone has a habit of inertia. Search market share in raising issues, the most important thing is not to improve their skills, but how to convince the user is willing to switch to your search engine.

Bing performance

For the upcoming new version of Microsoft’s search engine Bing, The Bing has tried SandeepAggarwal that results from the initial use, Bing relevance of search results has been greatly improved, the results of its return not only with Google, Yahoo Search is different from even with Microsoft’s Live Search compared to the current is also quite different.

SandeepAggarwal said after users type keywords, Bing search results will be divided into different groups, each group has a greater relevance of the results. For example, if a user types flights to New York City, in the corresponding group in return, there will be some New York hotels, tourist spots and other reference information. Because of the corresponding search results have been generally classified, the user more convenient to use.

SandeepAggarwal that, Bing’s search technology is indeed a significant improvement, if properly operated, Bing also have an opportunity as the next Google search home page, as search has become the activities of Internet users will go to the destination.SandeepAggarwal said: Microsoft’s Live search is not successful, the main reason is not mature enough or the technology. And Microsoft are of the view that, Bing has a very strong technology itself.

For the above-mentioned SandeepAggarwal that Microsoft refused to comment, a spokesman. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer (SteveBallmer) are also invited to participate in D7 the General Assembly, he will be four this week (U.S. local time) in the General Assembly to speak, when he is likely to reveal more information about Bing.

Yahoo adjustment

Recently, Yahoo has also conducted its search engine features a number of adjustments. The principle of the adjustment is to make it back to the results page to provide more information to the user at the same time to return to the text, pictures, and answers to questions, not just links to some websites. For example, if users type in the Yahoo home page StarTrek (Note: the movie “Star Trek”), the key word, it will return results of the production of the film sidelights, fan reviews and other information.

At present, Yahoo has already started to adjust the above applies to the latest page of them, such as Yahoo.com. The industry believe that in this way, it is possible to make Yahoo search users increase the volume, thus eroding some of the market share of Google.

IDC’s Feldman said: a lot of information available on the Internet, search engines to fight to the user, we must return to the previous link 10 to provide users with the most satisfactory results. If Yahoo can do the job properly, the user is bound to increase the volume. For Feldman’s view, Yahoo refused comment.

WolframAlpha hand

WolframAlpha by the British-born computer scientist Stephen Wolfram (StephenWolfram) presided over the development. Early in March this year, the first time revealed the Wolfram WolframAlpha the progress of the development and said that the working principle of WolframAlpha Google Web search with a larger difference. The service was正式上线last Monday.

Although the outside world has always been known as the Google killer WolframAlpha, but WolframAlpha spokesmanZeya (JohnEkizian) said, WolframAlpha itself can not be regarded as a search engine, WolframAlpha search engine service can only be regarded as supplementary, rather than the major search engines competitors. We are committed to the user query to provide the direct answer to the question, which is a search engine with other WolframAlpha the biggest difference.

However, the industry pointed out that although the current WolframAlpha Google is not enough to pose a substantial threat, but the development trend of WolframAlpha, it should be Google, Microsoft, Yahoo and other search engines pay attention to this.

director of industry analysis comScore Andrew Lippman (AndrewLipsman) said: With regard to the traditional search engine, the user must be a lot of links to return to the search for a suitable answer, so it takes a longer time. WolframAlpha and return the answer directly to the user, so in a number of inquiries on specific issues, WolframAlpha with traditional search engines do not have the advantage.

Google Countermeasures

From Microsoft, Yahoo, as well as the challenges WolframAlpha launched, Google does not stay put, but adopt a more positive response.

Karl-ho Yankee said: pattern search market is far from stereotypes, Google takes all the other competitors do not have the strength. It is for this reason, Google is also actively search for new technologies to enhance research and development.

Google vice president of search products (MarissaMayer) Prior to the outside world in an interview that during the last year, Google search products to its more than 30 adjustments, the purpose is to further strengthen the use of Google search properties, search the degree of market competition is still fierce, so Google is also facing a lot of pressure, we will become a driving force for these pressures.

Nevertheless, some members of the industry that Google’s competitors which are actively preparing for, and want to take away from the Valley singers in some market share.

SandeepAggarwal the CollinsStewart said: in the search technology itself, the Microsoft and Yahoo have shortened the gap with Google, the next thing we should look at Microsoft, Yahoo access to a sufficient number of users. In the search business, diversification of products, a situation more conducive to the user.

What are the NBA Live series?

Filed under: internet — Tags: — admin @ 7:14 am

The NBA Live series of basketball video games, published by EA Sports, is currently one of the leading National Basketball Association simulations on the market.

NBA Playoffs

The predecessor of the NBA Live series was the NBA PLAYOFFS series, which featured Lakers vs. Celtics, released first in 1989 for MS-DOS-compatible PCs and later adapted for consoles in early 1991 for the Sega Mega Drive/Sega Genesis. This game was played from a horizontal view (while later versions moved to an isometric view before ultimately moving to 3D on newer consoles). The game was one of the first to feature an NBA license, containing both real NBA teams and player likenesses and signature moves. Details such as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar’s goggles are clearly visible, and Michael Jordan’s “Air Reverse Layup” is animated with very high accuracy. Detailed player numbers were also visible. The game featured only eight of the sixteen teams that qualified for the NBA playoffs that year, as well as both NBA All-Star teams.

The next game in the series was Bulls vs. Lakers, released in 1992, followed by Bulls vs. Blazers in 1993. Unlike the first game, these two releases were titled after the two teams who were in the NBA Finals the previous season, while the original release apparently chose the Lakers and Celtics due to both teams’ historical success. Each revision added more teams and players, as well as more signature moves. The series also included an Olympic basketball game, Team USA Basketball (1992) which uses the same engine. The final game in the series was NBA Showdown 94 for SNES before the transition to the NBA Live series.

NBA Live

Originally, the NBA Live series was released for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis and SNES with NBA Live 95. The naming was changed from utilizing the last two digits of the year to the entire year number from 2000-2005, but returned to the original naming convention with NBA Live 06.

The Create-A-Player feature was not available in the 1995 versions of the game, but have been a mainstay since NBA Live 96. NBA Live 98 in 1997 was the last NBA Live game for the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis and the SNES. NBA Live 98 also was first NBA Live series game to support 3Dfx graphic cards. Only first generation Voodoo and Voodoo Rush cards were officially supported.

Starting from NBA Live 2000, the series featured NBA Live Legend All-Stars Teams, that included some biggest names from five decades (50s to 90s). These teams could be used instantly, but to use the players as regular players (e.g. traded, played on regular NBA Teams) they needed to be unlocked. Along the series, some of the rosters were changed due to many reasons.

NBA Live 2005 brought the addition of the Slam Dunk Contest, Three Point Shootout, and Rookie Challenge.

NBA Live 07 was released for the Playstation 2, Xbox, PC, Playstation Portable, and the Xbox360. The major new feature for this year was an evolution of the freestyle superstars system.

NBA Live 08[1] was released October 2nd, 2007 for the PlayStation 3, PlayStation 2, PlayStation Portable, Xbox 360, Wii and PC and Gilbert Arenas is the cover athlete.

NBA Live 09 was released on October 7, 2008 and Tony Parker is the cover athlete. The game is available for the PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, PlayStation Portable, Xbox 360, and Nintendo Wii. It features the first concept of daily updates changing stuff like tendencies, rosters, and hot-cold streaks.

NBA Live games have been released for the Sega Genesis, Super NES, PlayStation, Nintendo 64, Game Boy, Sega Saturn, PlayStation 2, Xbox, Nintendo GameCube, Windows, PlayStation Portable and most recently with the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Wii.

the 6 most useful twitter client service

Filed under: internet — Tags: — admin @ 4:56 am
There are a lot of people talk about customer service twitter client, search, articles are listed in a lot, but rarely conclusive, and to introduce the contrast. As a constant pursuit of more severe experience of twitter users, here is very subjective to recommend the end of 6 customer service, not much, but I think you are looking for on the inside that 6:
Third-party client-side version of the page

1.TwitZap. TwitZap time trial did not last long. However, I decided to give top priority to the reasons for the recommendation is. Vis-à-vis the customer, as well as other twitter client, TwitZap functions and speed are unparalleled.

Especially the largest: Ajax auto-update information without having to manually refresh; speed Express (may be not more than the user).

Air Desktop Client Edition

2.Twhirl. Their most commonly used by most long-standing client is it, full-featured, and the largest is the stability characteristics. Disadvantage is that large memory, and there will be a long time suspended animation (my solution is to remove and then reinstall.)

3.Tweet Deck. The most intuitive end customer service. I think this is the biggest difference with twhirl. In the function, with almost twhirl, memory occupancy, the relative is not particularly high. With a long time, need to delete and then reinstall the. (Hint, the download time to or can not show in Chinese, it is necessary to select the Setting icon in the upper right corner -> Colors/Font-> International Font / TwitterKey, you can then save)

4. Standby: Spaz / Destroy Twitter, customized support, simple look that is very lightweight (it was just a look), features a number of relatively poor, but good speed, stability can also be put onto the above two one air can be installed in about a two. Sometimes want to push in order to avoid, but can not push a bad mood.

Firefox plug-in clients

5.twitterFox. Only this option, and tried several before, but is the only surviving twitterfox, however, recently, there was no need, or used to twhirl. The greatest advantage of firefox plug-ins is that you can while browsing, fat side, this experience is unparalleled. However, the drawback is that firefox allows you to start slowly, is relatively unstable.

Well, to brief you on it. To be sure, these six are the best client to choose which one is, it will be good. Mainly depends on personal preference, and personal habits. For example, in the past, I would tend to use twitterfox. However, the development of super-to severe, you will find, you will tend to choose Air desktop client.

What you use it? Is still higher in the search experience?
