Google to target "overoptimization"?

I saw this article on Search Engine Roundtable. It is a short, but interesting read suggesting that google is looking to crack down (yet again) on sites that have been overly optimized.

David Brondstetter commented on Tom Gorham's blog post From the Trenches - Who Sank Your Google Reviews?

"Regardless of which way you lean on this issue, or the outcome of who did what, I think the more salient points that can be extracted from this conversation are 1) dealerships need to be in control of their digital domain and 2) Google reviews is a…"

"Brian, Great article. It just cannot be said enough, "Dealers, get your mobile web on!". One thought that I would add, test your sites (both your full site and your mobile web site) on multiple devices. Just because it looks great on an…"

"David, Awesome info that I would bet most did not know played a role in how Yelp works. I won't bet you a beer, but feel like I owe you one for the time you spent on this. Looking forward to hearing more."

Responding to Negative Reviews: Take 5,696, 234...

I remember when online sales leads were the next big thing. Every article you read was about "How to handle and online lead". It's 2012 and you can replace "online lead" with "Negative Review". Everyone's got a answer and not surprisingly, they are pretty much all the same. So, in the interest of adding my 2 cents, I thought I'd post my take on things:…See More

"Scott, Thanks for the reply. Pretty spot on. You know the problem for me is really the 501 (thanks, I didn't know they had a name). The big issue with any review site is the bell curve. As many have suggested, the propensity to submit an online…"

Business Insider Article on Cheating Yelp Reviews

For the occasional good article or two on BI, you need to wade through pages of crap. Here is an article on Business Insider about cheating Yelp, which falls squarely into the category of "crap" whereby the article falls just short of telling businesses to cheat on Yelp.That's not the interesting part for me. The comments…See More

This is a Professional Community, please describe YOUR Value Proposition... Why does anyone do business with you?: SureCritic was founded on the belief that not all reviews are created equal. We hear the same story time and time again from prospective clients-reviews out there on the web just aren't representative of their Actual customer's experiences.

At SureCritic, our mission is to help businesses tell the true story of their customer's experiences. As a result, our clients benefit from improved credibility and a better online reputation at the same time.

When browsing reviews, look for the "Verified by SureCritic" logo, which has our assurance that this is an actual customer.

Reviews are here to stay. Now, the only real differentiator is believability. Let SureCritic show you how we can help. Contact us at sales@surecritic.com for more information.

What interesting insights can you contribute to the ADM Community? Are you PASSIONATE about anything? Tell us who you REALLY are!: I started my career over 20 years ago with Ford Motor Company in Detroit. Through the years I've worked with OEM's and dealerships alike. I've developed successful programs and services for both using technology and process. I currently focus on helping dealerships and independent repair shops with reputation management and social engagement. I am an automotive "devotee". I love this vertical and am passionate about helping with its continued success.
