Few Belated SEO Updates

Wanted to write on lot of topics from last few months! Some of the things which impressed and made me to research were: - A quick trip!

Sentiment Analysis –

Not sure how much percentage it goes well with SEO/Online Marketing field… but

We can have an idea about what is happening around us.
Same time… Sentiment analysis is not so accurate because it can’t understand the sarcasm as it based on NLP (Natural Language Processing)

Google Instant –

A good feature as it helps in faster results and helps people in predicting things, but sometimes it might confuse them on what they are looking out for!!

When you do a localized search, Google has added a new link “Places” in Left hand side and a “Google Maps” over the right hand side just above the sponsored links.
