Three new domain names bought for undisclosed fees by leading online commerce and advice network

Leave a comment

ASAP Ventures has continued its growth in the online commerce industry, by acquiring three more new domains to help people keep up to date with football ticket news, motor racing tickets and buying ferry tickets. The latest sites are announced as SilverstoneTickets.co.uk, CheapFerryTickets.com and ArsenalTickets.co.uk.

Due to the high demand for seats in the Emirates Stadium, getting hold of Arsenal tickets can be difficult. But with ASAP’s new site ArsenalTickets.co.uk, people can go online and find the best place to buy tickets easily. The new domain is perfect for Arsenal fans and for football fans whose team are playing the Gunners.

Cheap ferry tickets can make a holiday on a cruise ship just that little bit more enjoyable, and with CheapFerryTickets.com from ASAP Ventures, people looking to book their next holiday to Norway or Denmark on a boat can do so. The new site compares the best prices from top operators including Brittany, Stena and P&O.

Silverstone tickets can be difficult to get hold of for motor racing fans, especially when the Formula 1 races are held. The new SilverstoneTickets.co.uk site from ASAP Ventures helps people find the best priced tickets for major sporting events and lots of information surrounding the races themselves.

Bing’s Integration of Facebook ‘Likes’ Is The Next Phase In Social Search, Claims SEO Experts QueryClick

Leave a comment

True to form, the world of social media shows little sign of slowing down in terms of infiltrating every aspect of our lives; search engines being no exception.

While Google laid bare plans to include relevant content from social media sources such as YouTube, Flickr and Twitter, Microsoft’s own search engine – Bing – has been preparing its move into the realm of social search with a much touted tie with Facebook.

Now Facebook “liked results” will become integrated with everyday Bing searches which Bing’s development team described as “part of a longer journey” into an improved cohesion between search and the social sphere.

Commenting on Bing’s inclusion of Facebook ‘liked results’, a spokesperson for Edinburgh-based SEO experts QueryClick said:

“QueryClick are not surprised to see Bing announce a tie with Facebook in a bid to keep shoulder to shoulder with Google following the launch of the latter’s real time, social media search results some 18 months ago.

“The ability to ‘like’ search results and see those that your friends have ‘liked’ is another step closer to a much more personalised search experience that pulls in the activities and opinions of an individual’s social circle.

“It’s also highly likely that personalised search will lead to a much greater emphasis on personalised advertising which has already been seen on Facebook.”

The introduction of the ‘Bing Bar’ – a simple tool bar function – will also serve to blur the line between search engine and social media platform even further.

Google’s Decision To Include Social Media Updates In SERPs Is The Latest Move Towards A Greater Emphasis On The Social Sphere, Says Search Engine Optimisation Experts QueryClick

Leave a comment

In true Google style, barely a month goes by without the search giant making a tweak here or a change there to its algorithm.

While some changes are kept under lock and key to prevent spammers and unethical SEO practices degrading the quality of search results, other tweaks are allowed to create something of a stir.

Google’s most recent announcement regarding its inclusion of social media results in SERPs was one such change that – quite appropriately – caused sites like Twitter to get all in a flutter.

Working by aggregating content from social networking sites such as YouTube, Twitter and MySpace, the move is yet another step towards a bold blend of search and social; all under one roof.

Commenting on Google’s decision to make its search results richer in social media-related content, a spokesperson for SEO experts QueryClick said:

“QueryClick’s SEO predictions for 2011 contained a big focus on the move to mobile search as well as a greater emphasis on social media so it’s not surprising that Google have taken the step to introduce more social media-specific content in their SERPs.

“In terms of the benefits of this change for search engine optimisation, there’s now improved opportunities for sites which are under performing or in highly competitive verticals, jumping onto the first page – albeit temporarily – if their social media output relates to search terms.”

FriendMatch hopes to help thousands of Americans, Canadians who are creating classified advertisements to find new friends

Leave a comment

With hundreds of thousands of classified ads posted on popular buy-and-sell websites like Craigslist and Kijiji by people who are trying to make platonic friends, a new concept was born- using the Internet to find and make friends.

Twenty-four-year-old Katie Hartle noticed this trend, and saw an entire market being ignored- online matchmaking for friends. Hartle created FriendMatch in hopes of making it easier for Americans and Canadians to make friends online, for free.

“This is just one more way that technology can improve our lives, in this case, our social lives,” says Hartle, “We have dating sites, lots of them, but this concept is long overdue.”

FriendMatch is designed so that visitors can look up potential new friends by city. Users can also browse or post an ad for friendship without signing up in one of several categories, including:

• New parents
• Seniors
• Couple Friends
• New in Town
• Exercise buddies
• Professional and Networking
• Room mates
• Weird Friend Requests

“As our lives change, we need friends to support us, whether we are newly sober, newly married, or even newly divorced,” says Hartle, “Friendships can enrich our lives, but the trouble is, it’s not always easy to find friends.”

The website can be found at www.friendmatch.us in the United States, and www.friendmatch.ca in Canada.

SEO Brand Management LLC of Arizona Builds Community Larger Than Vatican City in 45 Days

Leave a comment

SEO Brand Management LLC of Arizona, SEOBM, daily site traffic surpassed the 800 person population of the Vatican City in less than 45 days. Imagine in less than 2 months having 1095 people visiting your website every day and reading an average of 3.5 pages or more each visit. Granted, a little shy of the Vatican City and its 17,000 tourist visits each day, but without a pope this says much for pure organic online SEO and SEM Brand and Reputation Management. The major traffic generators have been from their stable of Video Marketing and Social Media SEO and SEM product portfolio.

SEOBM founder and President, Tommi Pajak, launched their first series of SEOB websites in late December 2010. Tommi states “SEOBM was created for the sole purpose of providing premium services for Proactive Online Brand and Reputation Management SEOwith emphasis on Keyword Rankings.

After years of servicing premier SEO companies as a collaborative supply chain partner, which served as a great education, I was compelled to lead SEOBM in a niched path as well as offering client to vertical exclusivity. We practice what we preach with the integrity to secure and extend our online reach. Kind of ironic our first milestone was the Vatican City. Quite fitting, I’m certain we’ll gain more off the popular Vatican City keywords, but I’m not inclined to build out a Vatican City Virtual Tour for their Reputation Management, our content should compel the readership to capture a qualified visit and a neutral online ref. If you look at one of the industry Key Performance Indicators, KPI’s, such as Alexa, achieving an Alexa rank under 750,000 in 45 days with our SEO friendly services and products, no PPC, just pure Organic SEO and SEM, that is what we preach. We’re not the new kids on the block by any means, we’re well seasoned and staffed with some of the best intellectual assets in the industry.
