No More Supplemental Indexing - Sort Of

Over the holidays I was reading an article from WebProNews on the Supplemental Index. If you are unfamiliar with the term, let me explain.

Back in 2003 Google introduced the Supplemental Index. This was an index (database) where web sites, pages went when not up to standards (less important or less trusted) for Google's main index (database). Now this explanation is a 'brief' to say the least, but you get the idea.

Many business owners were quite upset, and rightfully so, by this because if someone typed in a search term / phrase and your site / pages were in the Supplemental Index your site would not come up IF others did show for the search in the main index. They would only show IF they search did not turn up results in the main index.

It's been reported by Google Search Quality Team that now when someone types in a search term / phrase both the main and supplemental index will be searched. This is indeed good news.

Happy New Year!

Happy Holidays, A Joyous New Year - And A New Outlook?

As we come close to the end of the this year most of us start thinking about the New Year, what is to come, what we can do to make this new year better, etc. With this in mind I have to tell you what I experienced this evening.

I was watching 60 minutes and the interviewer was talking about this new 'preacher', Joel Osteen. On the 60 Minute website it says "Popular preacher Joel Osteen's positive message draws 40,000 a week to his Houston Lakewood church and has made him known around the world."

We have all heard the message of the power of positive thinking, from the time of the actual book "The Power of Postive Thinking" (first published in 1952), to the Law of Attraction, to the recent explosion of the book "The Secret". The basic message tells us that we just need to think positive and happiness, health and wealth will come to us. I am not saying that positive thinking is a bad thing, not at all, what I am saying is why don't we take it a step further.

If for a minute I set aside different strains of the power of positive thinking, which I do believe in BTW, my fundamental "law" has always been the golden rule... 'treat others as you would want to be treated'. Positive thinking - yes!

Now I ask you, if everyone in the New Year, 2008, treated everyone the way they wanted to be treated don't you think the world would be a very different place? Ok, maybe we all wouldn't make 'tons of money' because this is not a catchy program or bestseller book, but I do believe that we would all live in a much better, healthier and happier world. Don't you?!

"Use The Power of Positive Thinking" to attract into your life - THEN - remember to practice the "Golden Rule" and give back to others - The Good Of All!
