The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Traffic-Power.com Seach Engine Placement Service
Tags: seach, engine, placement, free
I used Traffic Power's search engine placement service and got great results. I highly recommend it if you are looking for search engine placement. Here is an explaination of the services taken from their Website:

At Traffic-Power.com we use our expertise and technological know-how to get you top search engine placement.

1. Keywords: A professionally trained technician is assigned to your account to help you choose the 20 keyword phrases that best reflect the main focus of your site.

2. 280 Attractions Pages: We build 280 individual HTML attraction pages that attract the search engines for your targeted keywords. The attraction pages are designed using a computer-generated analysis to conform to the ranking criteria of the top search engines. These pages provide spider food for the search engine spiders that includes significant unique content relating to your site.

3. Attraction Page Updates: Search engines frequently change their ranking algorithms so we update and change all client attraction pages as needed.

4. Meta Tags: We arrange the meta tags on your website to maximize visibility and placement. A meta tag is a special HTML tag that provides information about a Web page. Unlike normal HTML tags, meta tags do not affect how the page is displayed. Instead, they provide coded information analyzed by the search engines when building their indexes.

5. Directory Submission: We manually submit your site to Web directories such as The Open Directory Project. We do not manually submit to spider-based search engines because recent studies indicate that these types of search engines give preference to sites their spiders find through links. Since submission to spider-based search engines can actually hurt your ranking we create link popularity for you and then allow the spiders to find your site through those links. It generally takes around eight weeks for the search engine spiders to find and incorporate sites into their database.

6. Link Popularity: Link popularity is the total number of Web sites that link to your site. Since many search engines now use link popularity in their rankings, we use systems developed by our programmers to build your link popularity. These include adding your site in our exclusive themed link pools, submitting your site to thousands of link sites weekly, and other automated link popularity building strategies.

7. Online Reports: You can track your Web site's progress and keyword positioning with real time reports available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Our online client reporting system produces a current search engine placement report, link popularity report, and website activity report for daily tracking of your site's performance.

8. Customer Support: We offer free, unlimited customer support through our toll free customer service hotline. After your initial set up, our friendly support staff can help you amplify your results by suggesting design changes for your homepage and helping you to analyze your keyword performance.

Traffic-Power.com provides a complete placement strategy and a unique Business Opportunity that will bring you traffic through technology.

I agree that Traffic-Power.com provides a good search engine placement service. My traffic dramatically increased after I used them. They are also significantly cheaper than other SEO companies I researched.

Do we get points for spotting a blatant ad?

I haven't used them.
 
01.16.2003 at 01:23AM PST, ID: 7739270
Ha Ha Ha. You gotta wonder why they feel the need to advertise, for free, by spamming a forum. Don't they get enough traffic from the search engines??

Just be aware that the things these people do to artificially inflate search engine ranking (link pools, 'attraction pages', etc), though helpful in the short term, can seriously jeopardise your placement in the long term.

sighmoon,
i'm doing research on this subject, and wonder if you could please elaborate on why these tactics "can seriously jeopardise your placement in the long term".
thanks,
Mac

Hi Mac,

From points 2 & 6 from the above link:

They boast that they produce unreal content that makes Google think that your page is more popular & relevent than it really is. You can be reasonably certain that these will eventually be rumbled by Google.

And once google has accertained that you're cheating it will penalise your site, by giving it a page rank of zero. Then you're stuffed.

Admittedly there are other search engines than google, but google is easily the most important as its results are widely used on other sites.

Hope that answers your question.
 
01.30.2003 at 05:39AM PST, ID: 7845504

Thanks, I see your point.

Here's some other links you may find much more useful than Traffic Power:

http://searchenginewatch.com/

http://www.submitcorner.com/ (and anything else you can find by Danny Sullivan)

http://www.web-positiongold.com/
 
01.30.2003 at 06:23AM PST, ID: 7845812
PS. Sorry, searchenginewatch is the Danny Sullivan one.

 
02.01.2003 at 09:01PM PST, ID: 7861699
MacRena,

For near proof they are complete spammers, you can visit Google's SEO policy here:  http://www.google.com/webmasters/seo.html

Run this query in Google to see they not indexed:

site:traffic-power.com search

By being not indexed, you can bet they are black-listed.

Regards,

If you use Traffic-Power's link pool (lkpool.html) page, you WILL get blacklisted by the MSN search engine.

I have personally experienced the identical situation described in the linked story.

Their 280 "attraction pages" are also a load of, well, deceit and trickery.
