Social media has been growing massively in 2010 in the UK. For more about this video Simply Zesty provides online PR and social media for brands and businesses in the United Kingdom.
I just logged in the new interface of Google Adwords. The look and feel of the new AdWords is now very much like Google Analytics.
First screenshots of the new Google AdWords interface.
Do you like how it looks like? To fuel the fire, I’m using Google AdWords everyday and I can definitely say that this is a huge improvement. The new ajaxy interface gives it a desktop-app-like feel. I’ve tried loading it in Google Chrome and was blazing fast. The old interface for me was very clunky and slow. So any improvement from that is a jump ahead.
Kudos to the Google AdWords team for making this improvement. It’s really cool!
I’m an avid subscriber of NETTUTS. A popular tech blog that covers a wide range of topics about web development such as HTML, CSS, Javascript, CMS’s, PHP and Ruby on Rails. I was curious how many of their pages are actually indexed at Google and I tried to learn more.
Let’s take a look how many pages at NETTUTS are indexed. Note that this will vary from one location to another, as well as ISP used and nearest datacenter used by Google (I’m currently testing this in North America and the count is going to be variable and approximate).
Let’s hit “site:nettuts.com” at Google. They have approximately 588 indexed pages. Now let’s see how many backlinks they have. Let’s hit “link:nettuts.com“. They have approximately 1,400 links going back to them.
The numbers above are not really that much. However, what matters here is when you look at their RSS feed subscriber count, they have 14,400.
So, what’s the point? Sites like NETTUTS still proves that content is king. It doesn’t matter 100% how many pages of your site are indexed at Google, what’s really important is that you deliver quality content to your visitors.
The rest follows.
I’ve been searching for a quick link to Google Profiles on Google.com and there really isn’t one that is obvious to the regular users. It’s actually buried in a help page from Google.
So, here is the link to your Google Profile, making it easy for everyone else who is having a hard time looking for it.

Want to search for someone else’s profile on Google? Easy. Let’s say you are looking for Barack Obama’s Google Profile. Just go here…
http://www.google.com/s2/profiles?q=
…then simply enter “Barack Obama”.
That was easy right? Yeah I know, it’s pretty cool.
I don’t know if this has been announced already. But I just noticed a URL parameter on Google Ads. Coordinates.
They’re probably starting to track click coordinates on graphic ads. Google can/should provide Google Adwords users heatmap statistics on graphic ads pretty soon. A feature already being offered by Crazy Egg for some time now.
