Are you going GOOGLE-eyed?

Filed in archive google on October 31, 2006

Occupational hazards are common to us. Writers get writer's cramp, artists get creative burnouts, and politicians get liar's tongue.

In SEO, there is also the so-called Google-eyed. So, what is it? What are the symptoms of said SEO disease?

The disease is all about the conflict between the Internet and the Outernet.

One symptom is online addiction. If you are a Netizen who spends too much time online, then you are hooked. You may be one of the many who wonders why the supermarket nearby does not have search engines for easy find.

The easy cure is to shut down your computer and rest. Everybody needs rest, so are you. If your website is not ranking well, it is not the end of the world. Not yet.

Another symptom that causes said disease is misconception - misconception about many things. Say, Google Page Rank; having high Google Page Rank does not necessarily mean that your page will make it to the top 10 search results. Wipe those misconceptions away, to clear your SEO way.

Google is currently the King of search engines. Moreover, the ones giving it power are the Netizens. Further, get the equilibrium you deserve while working on webpage optimization. You will be needing more of it in the coming days...
