In the in the days when Google was IT when it came to natural search yone was very focused (or shall we say obsessed?) on Google page rank.
Now that Google is a public company and the search business has become competitive (most notably due to the serious search capabilities now being offered by Yahoo and Microsoft, via MSN), Google has become much more "private" or secretive about things like page rank, backlinks, etc.
As a matter of fact Air Max Flair Italia , many are of the opinion that Google is now intentionally displaying outdated page rank and backlink information on the Google Toolbar in an effort to mask the true workings of Google and to frustrate the Search Engine Optimization (SEO) community, which had become fairly skillful at "playing the Google game". If this is the case, then Google page rank fixation is now pure folly.
Another factor that is closely watched by webmasters is the Alexa traffic rank. This traffic rank is based on three months of aggregated historical traffic data from millions of Alexa Toolbar users.
However, the Alexa user base is only a sample of the Internet population, and sites with relatively low traffic will not be accurately ranked by Alexa due to the statistical limitations of the sample.
Alexa's data come from a large sample of several million Alexa Toolbar users; however, this is not large enough to accurately determine the rankings of sites with fewer than roughly 1 Air Max Plus TN Italia ,000 total monthly visitors.
Generally speaking, traffic rankings of over 100,000 should be regarded as not reliable because the amount of data that Alexa has available is not statistically significant.
Who said the emperor is wearing no clothes?
With the questionable current accuracy of two of the hallowed benchmarks of search popularity, where does that leave us? It leaves us exactly where we should have been in the first place, not obsessing over Google Page Rank or Alexa Traffic Rank, but instead focusing on the most important thing of that is Nike Air Max 270 Just Do It Italia , what is your position in the listings when a person searches for your key words.

Lately I've been noticing that a lot of eating establishments are using chalkboard menus. Places like restaurants, pubs, cafes and bistros are putting up large blackboards on the wall and listing their menu with unique lettering Air Max 270 Donne Italia , vast color displays and a touch of creativity. Chalkboard menus work with the overall relaxed design of the establishment, enticing people to not only buy, but return again.
Chalkboard menus provide a chance to express your creativity and add funk and charm to your business. The chalkboard art can be a combination of chalk, paint, pencil, and pastels which create rich graphics and lettering to draw in the eye. Most people scan the menu Air Max 270 Uomo Italia , only remembering a few items, but with a chalkboard menu the design, colors, lettering and graphics keep the customer's attention and begs them to read to the very end. For smaller establishments there are counter top and table top blackboards which are kept at eye level, these are small and lightweight and perfect for a smaller room.
Blackboard menus are unique and individual to each establishment, there will be no two alike. They can be customized and along with the proper illustrator or visual artist Air Max 270 Coral Stardust Italia , you can have logos, emblems or characters drawn onto your sign easily. If your establishment changes its menu regularly, or if you like to post the daily specials, list upcoming events, or change pricing it is economically smart to use a chalkboard format. Using a chalkboard menu instead of a regular paper menu is cost effective, because it can be changed regularly without extra cost and waste. This can give you the freedom to make changes to the menu or your prices without the wasted time and stress.
One of the major concerns of chalkboard menus is the smudging of the chalk over time and the overall messiness that will create. This is not a problem with a professionally designed chalkboard. A non-adhesive clear laminate is used to protect the board and chalk. The artwork and headings are sealed and smudge-proof which makes the board much easier to clean and keep clear. Powder chalk as well as marker chalk can be used on the blackboard Air Max 270 Grape Italia , although some people seem to have a hard time wiping off the marker chalk. Check with the chalkboard designer for tips and advice, you will probably be asked to try both and choose your favorite. I suggest you do this on your own, chalk and chalk markers can be purchased at most art stores and it will not cost you any money to try your hand at figuring out which you prefer.
The chalkboard frame is another important choice you will have to make. If the frame is well designed it can bring fluidity between your d茅cor and the menu. It seems like a small detail, but it is the first thing most people will see, and the first impression is very important. Maintenance with frames requires a quick dust and maybe some polish. Chalkboard menus will require some maintenance which is usually provided by either the sign company or the artist who did the art.
If you are thinking of using a chalkboard sign, do some homework. Look in and around your area for similar places which use chalkboards. Other designs will inspire you to dream up your unique chalkboard. Even if you are the artsy or creative type Air Max 270 Hot Punch Italia , always consult a sign company to ensure you have a clear vision of how you want your business to look.
