Sneaky google [ads on yahoo]

2008-03-22 | Filed Under blogging, web-services |

google is using yahoo services to advertise to it’s own search optimization services google adwaords.
i DON’T think that yahoo is aware of what happened behind their back .
if google did that and yahoo didn’t knew anything about it then [shame on them] .
yes google adwords is somehow better than yahoo SM ; but were are talking about the concept here .

know the trick :

go to Yahoo SM

2. watch that tutorial and i have to say it really looks promising , and may be good for some online services ; but check the url that yahoo used to explain how their searching promoting service would work .. !

3. as curious i wanted to see that website they are trying to use as a simple test site . so i typed www.oldworldguitars.com in my address bar and what a surprise

4. the page www.oldworldguitars.com redirected to http://oldworldguitars.googlepages.com/ and displayed the above page .

5. and in the last there is a link in that googlepages site linking to AdWords

Pretty clever right , i didn’t see google advertising to yahoo that way , may be that is why google is making it’s own way on the web as finding new ways to promote it’s own services FOR FREE

the best way to track your comments on other sites .
it’s easier than feeds .. as it track certain posts you’ve said some stuff on it .
you get it through mail so it’s more useful and handy [ people check their mail daily ] ; so you’ll never loose a reply
it has simple bookmarklet or firefox extension .
you’ll get your own comments feed so you can share what liked with your friends .
whenever you are done with certain article that you aren’t interested in tracking any more . you can as easily as it’s said .. just remove it .
