Google’s Huge Doorway Pages SEO Update

Google’s Huge Doorway Pages SEO Update


Google just released a new SEO update, and we believe this will create a huge impact on how SEO will be practiced from here on. Everyone in the world of SEO was taken by surprise by the announcement and Webmasters, SEO Companies and specialists are now poised to scramble for adjustments to keep up with the latest guidelines from the tech giant, which is expected to take effect in the coming days. Google calls it an “Update on Doorway Pages”.

Doorway Pages, What are they?


Sites or pages created for the purpose of achieving high ranking on specific search queries are called Doorways. These Doorways can give users a bad and very frustrating experience because it leads them to a host of similar pages in search results with each result taking the user to the same site or destination. For instance, if a searcher types in a search query he will find a listing of multiple results that actually go to a single site, getting out of the site and clicking on the next search result would only bring him back to the same site, which is frustrating, discouraging and annoying. It also leads users to “intermediate pages” which are essentially useless and unrelated to what the users are actually looking for. Misleading is a good way to describe these Doorways.

Google currently defines Doorways as:

  • Having multiple domain names or pages targeted at specific regions or cities that funnel users to one page
  • Pages generated to funnel visitors into the actual usable or relevant portion of your site(s)
  • Substantially similar pages that are closer to search results than a clearly defined, browseable hierarchy

Google is set to launch a new ranking system feature designed to address (or eliminate) the problems brought about by Doorways. The ranking adjustment is set to address these Doorway Pages, and sites or businesses with large and established doorway operations will be greatly affected by this change. It could spell SEO doom for some but it can also level the playing field for companies that don’t adhere to using Doorways and deception tactics for gains.

Google released a set of questions to ask, which can be useful guidelines for webmasters who want to implement necessary changes and corrective measures, for sites that can be considered as Doorway Pages:

  • Is the purpose to optimize for search engines and funnel visitors into the actual useable or relevant portion of your site, or are they an integral part of your sites user experience?
  • Are the pages intended to rank on generic terms yet the content presented on the page is very specific?
  • Do the pages duplicate useful aggregations of items (locations, products, etc.) that already exist on the site for the purpose of capturing more search traffic?
  • Are these pages made solely for drawing affiliate traffic and sending users along without creating unique value in content or functionality?
  • Do these pages exist as an “island”? Are they difficult or impossible to navigate to or from other parts of your site? Are links to such pages from other pages within the site or network of sites created just for search engines?

Fashion Shoes and other Style Tips for Men


Fashion Shoes and Style Tips
Fashion Shoes

The modern man is a style conscious being with the highest regard to personal style and quality clothing and accessories. Some follow the most recent fashion trends, whereas others like to stay in their long standing comfort zone. According to a well-known saying ‘men are recognized by the kind of shoes they wear’. Men like fashionshoes, and in many cases, the shoes actually do speak for their personality. If you take a look at a few men on the street and consider their shoes, you will note that those wearing dressy shoes with suits are most likely working within an corporate environment while those with comfortable casual shoes are often from more casual working environments. Needless to say, if someone wears work boots, they are obviously blue collar workers or those who provide physical labour.

As it is evident, your shoes will reflect a little bit about you and your lifestyle: what type of job you are doing, your personal style and your level of income. Aside from what you portray to the world, there are a few important considerations that men will have to look into when they select shoes.

Build a simple selection


Although women tend to buy more shoes than they actually wear, it is rarely the case with men. In which case, it is very important to build up a selection that is both simple and functional. In other words, go for function and quality, not for quantity.

Choose proper fitting shoes


It doesn’t matter what your job, lifestyle or personal style is unless your shoes fit you perfectly. No matter what you do all day, shoes that don’t fit properly will be uncomfortable and will lead to a range of health problems including foot and back pain. Look for a fit that is not too tight or too lose for the most comfort. Anything that is too lose will cause walking difficulties while anything too tight will cause pain. If you have especially large or small feet, look into getting custom fitted shoes for the highest comfort.

Pick the right trends to follow


It's rather sensible to follow or to want to follow the latest trends. However, not all trends work for everyone and everyone’s lifestyle. If you like the flashy look and it doesn’t interfere with your work or lifestyle, we say go for it! If you’re looking to combine comfort with functionality, be sure to give the highest priority to that for the best results. If you’re looking for shoes for a simple night out go for a simple shirt and throw a blazer with dress shoes or dressy loafers for a complete look.

All you need to know about labour recruitment agencies

A company will seek the services of a good labour hire to find a suitable candidate for their job requirements. While many recruitment labour hire companies function from an office, today there are several reliable labour hires that conduct their operations via the internet and an online based environment using their company website.

Labour hires are also search through job vacancy websites for suitable candidate for a fee. They use keywords to  search and select the candidates they are looking for and based on the criteria a list of candidates are generated with their contact details. This can save a lot of time as opposed to going through thousands of jobs profiles and resumes that were received from placing a job advertisement.

One should remember that recruitment labour hire services providers do not work for the job hunter but for the employer. Therefore, if you think the labour hire will promote you, look after your job requirements or look into your interests then you will be badly disappointed, as this will never happen. You should make it as simple as possible for the labour hire to recommend you to an employer. But if you are not clear about your goals then you may find yourself and your resume being sent to the end of the stack of potential candidates for a job.

Here are some useful tips on how to deal with a labour hire which will recommend you as the most likely candidate for a suitable job in your line of work,

·         You should be quick and timely when responding to a telephone call or emails from the labour hire company. The labour hire is most often competing with other agencies to get their candidate hired for the job, therefore if you are slow to respond and act, then you are not only jeopardizing yourself but also recruitment hire loses an opportunity with their reputation at stake. If you neglect these small things a labour hire may ignore you and may not recommend you for some time for a potential job.

·         Labour hires are on the lookout for candidates that are looking for positions that are consistent with their work history, which makes them a likely candidate to promote to an employer. Make sure that your resume sells you as the most likely candidate for the job.

·         If you are looking at changing your career, this may seem a little unlikely with a labour hire as they most often match an employee with an employer from the relevant industry. It is most often tedious to match an employee from a different industry to the existing job roles. Of course as an employee who is open to challenges you may convince the labour hire to consider your resume and that you are the better candidate than candidates with the relevant work experience. This will make the labour hire recommend you even if you are not suitable for the particular job industry.

·         Make sure that your resume has all the relevant key words for the job, especially for what is advertised in the online job advertisement. The keywords help with selecting candidates for the right job description and profile.

·         Don’t expect the labour hire agency to promote you or work on your behalf, even though you have paid a fee, this is not going to help. You will have to take your turn and wait just like the missions of other people in their database until they fix you up with the correct job.

·         You should never pay exorbitant amounts of fee to the labour hire agency. Legally it is not correct to charge a fee or a commission. However, due to the overwhelming cost of applicant there may be a very small processing fee involved and that’s all to it, you should never feel obliged to pay any other fee or bare any other costs.

·         Always make sure you are happy with the job that you are fixed up with, never go for a job that you are unhappy with and you feel pressured to take by the labour hire company.


·       Be honest with information you provide such as school grades and employment dates etc are accurate.  Inaccurate information and inconsistencies can reflect badly on your resume and a potential employer may lose trust in you. 

How Recruitment Agencies Work

How often do you hear “a good employee is hard to find?”, while job hunters say “I cannot find a decent, well payed job”. No matter whether you are an employer or an employee, finding good workers and work is a very difficult process.

If you’re an employer and advertise a post, you may receive hundreds and thousands of job applications, most often half of them are not qualified for the job, and sifting through hundreds of these applications is no easy task for an employer. On the other hand if you are a potential candidate for a job and send out many resume’s you may finding yourself thinking if your outbox or the mail never sent out your resume’s or have they disappeared altogether  as you never to a response.

Well how can employers and employees avoid this red tape in the hiring process? Today most employers and employees seek the help of a recruitment agency. These agencies help companies and individuals seeking jobs with their needs. They find people to suit all the job profiles of the employer, from permanent jobs to temporary jobs and in various different industries. Whether it’s a construction worker, a personal assistant, a nurse and carpenters, the recruitment agency will find the best qualified individual for the job.

Public and private recruitment agencies help with the staffing process. Some of the fields that these agencies specialize in are, a personal and customized placement services, setting up temporary staffing facilities and executive search or headhunting firms.

Here is a look at some of the general functions of a recruitment agency,

·         Take the away the hassle and stress of human resources. Employers will no longer need to spend time going through resumes and the interview process to recruit staff; the agency will look after everything from the interview process to the recruitment process.

·         The agency will look after the entire process from matching the correct person for the job and line up potential candidates for the company to interview, if the company requires candidate to be interviewed.
·         A senior level candidate can also be hired through an agency that specializes in executive search firms.
·         The agency is also able to provide for temporary staffing needs of the employer.

·         For a job hunter the agency can be the only sources of getting an all inclusive full time job. These agencies can introduce job hunters to job openings that they could not find on their own. These agencies are a great way of looking for a new job in a new industry or a long term or short terms job as well.

·         These agencies are a good source for obtaining free training. They offer a variety of free training and skill building and development from how to face a successful interview to the use of computer software or hardware.

Job hunters and employers value a good employment agency. Even though the agencies are not in a position to always guarantee a successful job or a good job match they will always give you  the opportunity to find the right job or the right employee.

If you are seeking the services of an employment agency you will need to follow these steps,

·         Find the right agency and register with them, you may need to pay a onetime fee or a retainer if you’re an employer, you can also register with multiple agencies.
·         Complete the application along with the correct and relevant information
·         Provide a detailed and professional resume
·         Sit for the qualifying test or evaluation process
·         Face an initial interview so that the agency can see what your strengths and weaknesses are and your requirements
·         Follow a training program if you feel that it is necessary and you can benefit from it
·         As a job hunter you need to choose the best agency that specialize in and industry or field that is related to your job function.
·         Make sure that the agency you choose a reputed one.
·         Signup with more than once agency. Since it is rare that two agencies will work with the same firm, chances are that you will be able to have a better opportunity at securing the right job with a reputed employer.

·         Never rush the agency as they will need to take their time with placing you with the right job.
