Trust Rank Not Part of the Google Algo

Unfortunately I don't have time to blog much this week because I have 200 pages of Title Tags and Meta Tags due on Monday (I won't tell you where I am currently at..lol). But suffice to say I have a lot of work to do. So today I thought I would share a video from Matt Cutts about Trust Rank and the lack thereof at Google. I think there is a lot of confusion in the industry in thinking that Trust Rank is a Google concept (probably because it sounds like Page Rank). It's actually a Yahoo concept as Matt explains. So next time an SEO tells you something about Google Trust Rank, you might want to look closely at that advice..lol. Hope everyone is having a great holiday. I will try to get to that usability article asap. It's just one of those ones that is going to take a couple hours that I don't have this week :)

In Christmas news, as promised, my Chargers delivered a Christmas eve thumping of the Denver Broncos. Fortunately for Denver, we put our second string in in the third quarter to save them the embarrassment of what could have been another 40 point loss. Maybe next year they will score a touchdown against us. And what did Santa bring Catfish you ask besides a Charger victory? New shoes :) Note the Charger colors on a black shoe. Perfect! Thanks Santa!

Have a great day!
