A web search engine is a tool designed to search for information on the World Wide Web. The search results are usually presented in a list of results and are commonly called hits. The information may consist of web pages, images, information and other types of files. Some search engines also mine data available in databases or open directories. Unlike Web directories, which are maintained by human editors, search engines operate algorithmically or are a mixture of algorithmic and human input.

My idea of making search engine data on our movement total nonsense and unsellable to advertising agencies?
Q. Take any 10 words from the 3rd paragraph of a story that appears on page 5 of any newspaper - then paste that info into the search engine. Do a search and flick onto the 16th top entry and just leave it there. Hopefully the search engines that follow our movements will think that we are particularly interested in a topic and sell that piece of information on to advertisers not thinking it is pure rubbish. Therefore making a mockery of the search engines data gathering and ultimately unproductive. Have you any ideas?

A. All you have to do is use an 'anonymous proxy' ...for example, (which has the added advantage of stripping out all the 'paid for' adverts that normally appear at the top of the 'hit list')

How can optimisation search engine be achieved?
Q. I have a problem: Some of my websites rank really high, but those are not my revenue generating sites. I have been unable to replicate the same results across all my sites. Does anyone know of a surefire way to achieve maximum optimisation for search engine? Whether paid or not, as long as it has been proven to work, repeatedly

A. Hiya, I had that problem previously, because I had some affiliate sites that were costing me a fortune on Google Adwords, but not ranking highly on Google Organic Search. Until I happened across this Internet Gurus website, Mark Ling ( ) detailing his tricks for getting massive organic traffic, which is free. I tried it, and all my sites have never looked back since. I just now only run Google Adwords for new products. It might work for you too.
