SEO Tools

Search Engine Optimization suggestions?


Just a general comment, not real long. A link from a link, got me on web page that advertised itself as some type of SEO Tools. The short script measured the ratio of text to code and spit out a number that meant something, presumably higher or lower was good.

The problem, I was reading it in a streaming Twitter feed, and when I went back in regular browser, an ad started streaming. Video ad, with noise. Annoying video ad with an annoying soundtrack while some guy pitched product.

When I pitch a product, one, it’s something I’ve used — and believe in — and, two, the material is passive. The ad right here shows how I figure it should be done.

I found the pop under, pop over and streaming AV content frankly disheartening. Won’t be frequenting that site, no matter how important the text to code ratio is.

    Very irritating to click on a site and ad starts, and you can’t figure out how to shut the damn thing off, except to exit the site. Maybe I’m just too impatient to want to deal with it, but if I’m going to be aurally and visually asssaulted, I’m not returning.

    Ah, Astrofish, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways….
