I think we have almost arrived to a point where SEO will not matter anymore because from the way the search engines have evolved to control spam and gray matter in SEO, there has been a very important change in the future of search.
SEO got along so well but the changes did make a lot of changes to everything in how the webmasters work for their efforts to payup in rankings. Everything in the game of SEO has always been about rankings and this has never changed since the invention of search engines.
In the biggest change started by the Google Slap late last year in 2007, there were buzz going around that there will be more. The Googleplex have been so very quiet and the Google engineer Matt Cutts, according to a source have been interviewed in the latest SES and told interviewers that the future of search is going to be better.
Is this it? the start of a new life and the start of the fall of spam? Will this be the start of "SEO doesn't matter anymore? And what about branding, is this something that Google is looking into or just some scare to ward off the fortunate ones, the other side of white hat SEO.
Well, if you are to react on this one, feel free to leave a comment here and I will take a look at it and see what and where we can agree or not. This post is just some premonition and not based on another fact.

Arlo Gilbert Profile Run
There's been a new ongoing profile run for the Arlo Gilbert race and this is just something that will add up to the fun in all angles involved. The run intends to generate a traffic of people who will donate for the Arlo Gilbert Syndrome cure.
The sure is said to be only that you have to get more addicted to whatever is going on in you while containing the disease.
Arlo Gilbert Syndrome, otherwise also called as AGS - SEO is a disease that literally has no cure so all you have to do is to go along with the tide. This is how it goes for now until there is no cure found yet. Play along and do as you are supposed to do everyday and you will not notice how you passed the time.

Optimizing the Server and Database
Your remote database is where you keep all the information that you need. This is the heart and soul of your business if you are in to online business and therefore it should be well taken cared of all the time 24 hours a day and 7 days a week by remote DBA experts.
The server that handles the database needs the same and if for an SEO, there is always a need to optimize for the keywords and terms that you are targeting, in the server world, you also need to optimize but only for a smooth and no downtime running.
Remember that this time it is not with the keywords but the server itself so that it will function smoothly and properly for a smooth run of the business in terms of availability to consumers and customers. This is called as SQL server tuning or sometimes SQL tuning.
To do this server tuning and optimization, you must first understand that the people that handle this job should be well aware, qualified and certified for the nature of their profession as remote DBA personnel.
The people behind this are the DBAs and there are a few more functions that they are to do including SQl server monitoring with the use of certain SQL server tools. Without those tools, there is no way that any professional can handle so much or so little of the work that needs to be done as mentioned above.
These tools are all used to monitor and arrange everything in your server. It is also these same tools that are used to cure problem areas that professional DBAs in the field call as bottlenecks and deadlocks and to implement procedures in SQL monitoring.

In the Name of Linking - The Art of Link Building Part I
I am planning to make this post a more of a novel type but I doubt it that it will make it there but I will try my best to give it a more exciting pack like the pack of wolves that I saw just the other night at national Geographic who used to row the lands with their clan hovering for food. So let's get to the point.
In the search engines, however food is not as scarce as the wetlands of snow for wolves. All you need to know is what are edible links and what are not. Since the big change that Google has implanted in the minds of webmasters, SEOs (search engine optimizers) and even those who are in the marketing side of the web, the SEM (search engine marketing buffs) the battlefield of link building arena has never been the same again.
Look for Useful Links
So let us define edible links. Edible links by simple layman's terms is just those links that are and can be accepted to digestion by the search engines. How do we know then if links are edible and are good food for the spiders? Simple, it has been told now and again that links ought to be relevant and related to the theme that a webpage or website is discussing.
Putting it simple by example, if you are discussing about boxing and you are trying to get a link from a high PR site that discusses about "sports", chances are, the search engines will like it because by nature of search results from search engines, boxing is a kind of sport. But there is another part in the big picture here.
While link directories are selling links to their patrons, the directory submitters and link builders, those link builders from the poorer army tend to just go for non paid link submission directories which by nature, they never thought would be the most effective way to get links that are what we call quality and relevant.
Of course this depends on the submitter himself is he knows how to choose the right category with which to submit to.
Links from Blogs and Related Websites
Aside from link directories, we can also get relevant links from blogs. If you have a friend for example how discusses about the same topic asy our website, say, in sports, you can try and ask for a link from him on either one of his posts about any sport or from his home page. Any of the two will do at any cost although for most friends, it would be free. you can also try taking a few links from another webpage which is what we all know can be done by commenting on a relevant blog post and leaving a signature.
Forum Links
Forum links are also a good source of which is what we call as edible links. But this is true only if you know how to do it right. In the early times that I know of, I used to build links for clients who are just after the numbers and so what I used to do is to give them what they want compromising the quality and relevance of those links that we got for him.
I would just sign up with any kind of forum who would allow me to post signature even if I only have a few posts. Now this is not what I would like to advice to you guys out there. What you need it so go looking for forums who discuss something relevant to your website.
If your site is about sports, then look for sports related forums. they are never that hard to find these days unlike in the early times where most of us link builders would rely on just about any forum we see as long as we can get a link or two from the signature that we leave on each of our posts and thread that we visit.
Today, there are more sources where we can get links from and this will be discussed in the other half parts of this post in the coming days.
