2) How search engine crawlers and spiders function
Search engine "crawlers", "spiders" or "robots" as they are called, are always looking for new or fresh content on the Internet. They are actually the seekers of web sites & web pages. How exactly do they function? What is it they actually do? Why are they so important in the context of Search Engine Optimization? (Article written by Daria Goetsch). Find all the answers here.

More on the Traffic Power situation

The previous Traffic Power story you witnessed in our question and answer section is one among the thirty or so similar stories I received in the past 8 weeks. It makes me really angry and frustrated when I hear or read of similar stories. Various SEO forums indicate Traffic Power tends to cold call potential customers with sales pitches.

Most SEO firms I know are knowledgeable, honest and can help you increase your sites' rankings in the search engines. Also, none of these companies utilize telemarketing or "cold calling" techniques to offer their services. It's really sad that a company such as Traffic Power would come and attempt to destroy a reputation that took our industry years to develop.

I truly hope that these victims win the class action lawsuit that was launched against the company and that they are reimbursed every penny they paid.

Well, that's it for today folks. Thanks for being here and have a great weekend everybody!     Serge Thibodeau.

Please note that I am available for SEO consultative work or to help you optimize your website for the major search engines. Feel free to contact me for an honest and fair assessment.

Note: Although I always try my best to answer each individual question that I receive, there are times when it's just impossible for me to answer every one I get, as the amount of emails sent to me keeps increasing all the time.
