Yahoo Site Explorer has raised the white flag. Bye, old friend. What now? Well, we look for other alternatives of course! It would be so good if we could get free Yahoo Site Explorer alternatives, since YSE is free. So I looked up some of the free backlink checking tools out there and I’ve listed some of them down. But first, a little scrutiny over Bing.
SEO Philippines: Google Freshness Algorithm Experiment
Okay so I posted an entry last night (14 hours ago) about SEO Philippines. The post was entitled ‘SEO Philippines‘ and had a good number of ‘SEO Philippines’ keyphrase inside the body of the content. I did this mainly for three reasons:
- I was experimenting on how high I can rank for the term SEO Philippines
- I wanted to contribute to the Philippine SEO Community
- I wanted to let my readers know about great Filipino SEO specialists out there
SEO Philippines
SEO in the Philippines is now a REALLY BOOMING industry. Just two years ago I had no idea about SEO or what it’s about. SEO here in the Philippines wasn’t all that popular then.

Yahoo Site Explorer Replacement: SEO Spyglass

The web is getting better and better at serving users. There are so many websites transitioning to a web 2.0 model of user experience and functionality – and now there is what we call web 2.0 linkbuilding. It’s nothing too complicated – let me show you how.

Broken Link Building is another technique that SEO specialists use discreetly – it’s also one of the helpful ones. Why not, when you’re trying to fix a webmaster’s broken link for him?
How does 301 and 302 Redirect affect SEO?
For the non-technical, a 301 and 302 redirect sounds foreign. Here, we’ll be discussing what a 301 and 302 redirect is, how it affects SEO, and how we can use it.
“Redirect” definition from the web: to direct (someone or something) to a different place or by a different route.
To make it simpler, redirecting a page often means you’re assigning a new URL to it. This is not always the case because sometimes when people use redirection, they also change the design, the coding, the navigation, etc… It depends on what purpose you are redirecting the page.
