Lodefizzle
February 4, 2006
Mike Davidson over at Mike Industries wrote up a great post about his experiments with Google, search engine optimization, code quality and semantics. The impetus for the article was to find out why he is #5 on the Google for “Mike” and why Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater ranks higher than him with complete crap for HTML. He performed a very nice experiment with the word “lodefizzle” to see how it would rank and documented the various results.
Conclusion: Although good semantics are somewhat valuable in optimization, simple things like proper titles, descriptive filenames, and incoming links are dramatically more important.
