Impact of Google Panda

What is Google Panda
Google Panda, the single name that is on every bloggers mind, has been trending since 2011. From one aspect, it is the latest change in search engine results algorithm brought about by Google. This new system has added an extra filter to refine the existing search results. From our second aspect, Google Panda is designed to reduce the present rankings of low-quality websites and blogs and boost sites that truly deserve to be termed as high-quality sites.
This new algorithm update was specifically meant for the low-quality sites that were enjoying the Top Section of their respective keywords or search terms. Since Google is the market leader in the online web search therefore in terms of maintaining their leadership this was a crucial step.

Impact of Google Panda based on Bounce Rate
Before the Panda came online, a particular search phrase would always include sites that had nothing to do with that search term. Now after the Google Panda update, sites that had low-quality, useless content have been filtered out and only the content-rich sites are given focus in the Search Engine Results Pages (SERPs).
The impact of Google Panda was beyond repair. Websites or Blogs that were created to provide blackhat online marketing tactics were severely slashed. More than million number of websites have been under this impact. Losing traffic was just the starting trend, once it gathered momentum, the project – PANDA started thwarting these sites to SERPs beyond the 100th mark.


Soon after Google had rolled out the Panda, many online forums, websites, including Google’s own webmaster forum, became the target point of complaints from various sections of the webmasters. The complaints was specifically about copyright infringements and scrapers that were getting a boost in their SERP rankings than those sites which were the original host of the real content. Google decided to ask for data collection points that would help them detect scrapers and copiers in a better way.
In the series of updates that followed the initial launch of Google Panda, some of the elements used to determine the site’s quality previously was a bit downgraded on the scale of their importance. One such factor is Google PageRank.


Firefox Gets A 'Reset' Button – How To Use It

Firefox is a great browser and there is no doubt about that. The availability of thousands of Add-Ons is the biggest plus point of Firefox and sometimes it can even work against it. If you are an average computer user and using the same Firefox profile for a long period of time them you must have have noticed that the performance of your Firefox decreases with the passing time. Now with the introduction of Reset button, even a basic computer user will be able to solve some of their Firefox’s problems by reverting back their Profile to the default state, without loosing their personal data.

Using the "Reset" function is very simple. To find the reset button, just Go to the Firefox menu button, choose Help, then select Troubleshooting Information. Or alternatively you can enter about:support into the address bar to access the Reset button. On the "Troubleshooting Information" page, you will notice the "Reset Firefox’ button in the upper right corner of the screen. Just click on the “Reset Firefox” button and your Firefox Profile will revert back to it’s default state.

Currently the "Reset" option is not available in the stable version of Firefox ( Version 12 ) and it only works with the default profile. This means that if you opened Firefox with a secondary profile, or with a command line shortcut, the Reset Firefox button won't be visible. But still the "Reset" functionality is a very good feature to have in any browser.

Atomic Floyd headphones


Atomic-Floyd-Bheadphones

The Atomic Floyd SuperDarts offer powerful, punchy bass with clear high frequencies that are sure to appeal to fans of electronic and dance music. And if you're into electronic music, the skull-shaking bass offered by the Atomic Floyd SuperDarts will give you endless hours of pleasure with their bright red cable and shiny metal bits stuck on the end, bullet-like tips are back, complete with aggressive grooves.

They're machined from stainless steel, so should be sturdy enough to withstand an accidental attack from an errant foot. That metal does make them pretty heavy, so you'll have to make sure you use the correct size of tips to ensure they don't fall out of your ears. Settled in the top half of the left-hand cable you'll find an in-line remote made from more of that tough metal.

The remote is placed so it dangles just below your chin, which makes it better for picking up your voice than some headsets we've used, and makes it easy to find when you have to quickly skip the songs. The SuperDarts use dual drivers, meaning you have two speakers pumping out music in each ear. The dual drivers handle low and high frequencies separately, with the purpose of providing a more defined sound than headphones that rely on one driver for everything.

The silicon tips provide an excellent level of passive sound isolation, which allows you to listen at lower volumes, providing a clearer song and happier eardrums. The attention to detail has been so great that even the cable has been designed so that it doesn’t get tangled in knots when tucked away in your pocket. But, although these headphones are good, ultimately it all comes back to the price as it costs around £199.
