…and 5 more reasons why I don’t do it so often

Okay apparently I am in this game they call tag or something. Some new thing thats going around and your not supposed to break the ring, curse or whatever you call it.  Sounds like a chain letter to me

I normally don’t write articles on new analytics software but this one is really cool. It has an Ajax interface and virtually live data. Within 10 minutes of installing the tracking code you can see live statistics. Again I have been known to promote Google Analytics very highly as in my opinion it is the best analytics software on the web. My stance on that has not changed however I will use Clicky Web Analytics 2.0 side-by-side with Google Analytics. There are things I like about each tool and each has things the other doesn’t. I am pleased with the setup and ease of use of Clicky Web Analytics 2.0
Very easy to use and understand, they did a good job of putting it together and making it look good and still provide the stats we all want.

Maybe I am just slow lately but this tool is new to me. Since the introduction of the MSN Adlabs Keyword tool I have been checking for new tools at MSN so it has to be new - So what the heck is this tool and what effect does it have on my life? Well here is how it works. You enter a key-word and select either Funnel in or Funnel out. An incoming funnel is a search that ends with a certain keyword; for example, an incoming funnel for “SEO” displays all the queries that customers searched before searching for “SEO”.(taken from MSN details page).
An outgoing funnel is a search that starts with the keyword; for example, an outgoing funnel for “SEO” displays all the queries that customers searched after searching for “SEO”.

Who cares? This doesn’t pertain to me does it? Well that is your decision but since your hooked you might as well read the rest of the article

Do you hate spam? Do you want to help make Google a cleaner place by submitting spam but don’t got the time to goto Google and submit a form every time you see one? Now there is a FireFox extension that allows you to submit a report right from your browser with auto-fill in fields. This is the easiest way yet to submit spam results to Google.

How does it work? Well when your browsing Google and you click a organic or PPC listing and find that it is a spam site or MFA page you click the little icon right next to your browser box and it will bring up a form which has the spam url already filled out. Just go back to google and copy the url of the search(the url in the browser bar which brought up the search) and the keywords used to find the site. Then submit the spam report and your done.
