Google Insights for Search

Google announced a new tool for advertisers and marketers to understand search behavior – Google Insights for Search.

We can also say this is an Add-on to Google Trends. We just have to type the keyword in a search term to see search volume patterns over time, as well as the top related and rising searches. We can also compare search volume trends across multiple search terms, categories, geographic regions, or specific time ranges.

To download the results / analysis for our searches, we just need sign into our Google account.

Cheers!

A new Search Engine Cuil

Do you know Cuil?

Cuil (pronounced as COOL) is the Search engine launched by some Ex-Googlers and it’s really cool too. Cuil’s search results are also really relevant. It has the biggest index on the internet. It (www.Cuil.com) has indexed 120 billion web pages, three times more than any other search engine.

And after this announcement, Google asserted on its blog Friday that “the web is big” and Google system hits a milestone which is 1 trillion (as in 1,000,000,000,000) unique URLs on the web at once!

This would be an interesting topic for a long time now. I am sure! Google will win but who knows about the future! Best of luck to Cuil and Google too.

Cheers!

This is what the Google guy, Matt Cutts stated in his blog on 24th July, 2008 -
“Hey folks, I wanted to let you know that new toolbar PageRank values should become visible over the next few days. I’m expecting that also in the next few days that we’ll be expiring some older penalties on websites.

So, be ready to check your new updated PageRank for your websites / blogs and web directories.
