		<description><![CDATA[Have you ever wanted to provide a link which, when clicked, would lead somewhere other than where the link XHTML itself is coded to point? For example, you might have been trying to track clicks through a given link but without actually cluttering up the link by appending tracking parameters. Or, you might have been trying to ensure that the Page Rank contribution of a given link wasn't lost on some obscure page deep within a site. A little simple javascript can help you send clicks to one place and Page Rank to another.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While most of the discussion about the major November update of the Google index -- popularly referred to as the 'Jagger' update -- has focused on changes to the Google algorithms and resulting alterations to SERPs, we've noticed a change in something that matters a great deal more. Namely, we're seeing that Jagger is apparently beginning to impact real world traffic, and we're ecstatic to see the traffic figures plummeting at a selection of spam-supported sites across the web. Meanwhile, our sites that focus on adding real value with real content continue to enjoy growing visitor numbers and page views.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Is the job of a search engine to find content that is 'optimized' for a given key phrase? No! The job of a search engine is to find content that is semantically relevant to that key phrase. Assume that the two are the same thing, and you'll find yourself chasing all kinds of irrelevancies when trying to decide how many key phrases you should include when 'optimizing' a page.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recent discussions at Cre8asite Forums and Search Engine Roundtable have wondered about the benefits -- if any -- of using Google's new Sitemaps, and discussions elsewhere on the web suggest that many webmasters don't yet know what to think of Google's new way of gathering URLs for indexing. From our point of view, the benefits of Google's Sitemaps are extremely clear. Is your site one of those for which we see clear benefits?]]></description>

This new feature promises to shed light on the 'dark matter' of the web -- the billions of pages of content previously inaccessible to search engines -- and in so doing to change the face of search forever.]]></description>
