4. SEO is a technique which increases the visibility of websites on the search engines. It makes the website
crawlable and easily accessible by the search engine bots. It improves the site structure and other elements
like the loading time of the site in order to increase the user friendliness as well as search engine friendliness
of the website. Seo is both an art as well as science. It generates traffic to a website organically (i.e. without
opting for ads and paying money to the search engines).

Yahoo results are powered by Bing so you need to submit
your website to Bing in order to get listed in both Yahoo and

submit your site in it separately.
Baidu Submit

How Does Google Applies Semantic Search- SEO RESEARCH SERIES - Part 1
Topic:- How Does Google Applies Semantic Search ?
Semantic search applies the concept of finding out
words that are used in the same context. It is one of
the foremost techniques based on Latent Semantic
Indexing which makes the search engines think like
humans and find out the relationship between words.

Domain Authority and its impact on Google’s search results
SEO RESEARCH SERIES-Part 2
Today’s topic of discussion is Domain Authority and its impact
on Google’s search results. First, let me start by giving you a
hint on what’s exactly is Domain Authority?
Domain Authority
Google’s ranking algorithm judges web pages on the basis of
domain authority and relevancy. Relevancy is related to the
content on the web page while Authority is related to the
popularity of the website. Domain Authority is measured by
the number of backlinks pointing to your website.
9. http://www.seosandwitch.com/2012/10/query-highlighting-on-google-search.html
Query Highlighting on Google Search Results – SEO RESEARCH SERIES PART 3
In order to search information on Google, we need to type a query into the query box. The entered query is then
interpreted by Google applying various relevancy factors and the best results are presented before you within a few
microseconds. However, the searched query is always highlighted in bold, which gives you an idea about the kind of
information you are searching on Google and where has Google found those words in the web document in order to
determine the relevancy of the fetched results. It is better to mention that the returned results are based on several
other ranking factors (over 200).
10. http://www.seosandwitch.com/search/label/Google%20Adwords
The New Green Ad Label for Adwords
Google has started testing a new green ad
label for Adwords. The previous version was
the yellow label one and Google has decided
to convert the yellow ones into green.
The experiment is in the testing phase and
Google has still not pushed on the
changes. There is still no official confirmation
for it that Google will roll the new bright
green ad labels or not.
Here is a screenshot of the newly labeled
green ads in the testing phase:
11. Ask Question in Plain English to Google Analytics and Get an Answer!

13. How to Find Long Tail Keywords For Free and Increase Your Organic Traffic
http://www.seosandwitch.com/search/label/keywords
Long-tail keywords are longer and more specific keyword phrases that visitors are more likely to use when
they’re closer to a point-of-purchase. They’re a little bit unreasonable, at first, but they can be hugely valuable
if you know how to use them.
