If you are not a person who reads the news every morning, unemployment rates have toppled over to the double digits becoming 10.2%, highest in 26 years as NYTimes reports. The least I could do is compile a useful list on the top 43 best job searching sites, which can help to better ease your search for a new job. Finding a job isn’t easy, it sure is a daunting task, but with the amount of resources available online, you are bound to find a job that can fit your needs. Hopefully, this list compiled by me on the best job searching sites, proves to be a convenient source to find great online jobs for today and tomorrow.

How to Successfully Market Your Product on the Internet
I’d bet every single Internet Marketer has at least once thought about creating their very own product and marketing it. Why settle with just 75% when you can take 100% of the profit. You don’t need to be a well known authority figure on the web to make your very own product and sell it. Although it may help, it isn’t necessarily required. As long as you’re a knowledgeable person that has the slightest clue of putting words together on writing something informative, you have the capability like any other marketer, to make your very own product and sell it. Don’t let competition discourage you from creating your own product. While it may seem everything has been written about, it doesn’t necessarily mean that it is off limits, writing your product in your very own prospective alone can already be a reason why people would buy your product. If it is a service you are offering or a real life product, think of a competitive edge for your business. You won’t know if marketing your own product is profitable or not until you try.
Product Presentation
In any given situation, presentation is the most important thing on deciding the success of a product. The way you present your product will define how successful your product will sell. Presentation is like a weapon, it can either build way to a bright future for your product or in the wrong hands, dig a deeper hole for you and your product. Think of a competitive edge that you have obtained and stick with it. For example, Google. Their competitive edge over such search engines like Yahoo and Microsoft’s Bing, is simplicity. Probably why it is so infamous today, is because of it’s simple competitive edge of it being just a search engine for users and nothing more. Anything else would just take away from their competitive edge that first led them to being the superior search engine. Moral is, find your competitive edge and stick with it thoroughly.
Building Buzz
Without any buzz circulating around your product, you won’t be making any sales. Of course creating buzz is no easy job, it can indeed lead to great results if done right. On the web, there are probably hundreds of opportunities to create buzz for your product. In the era where web 2.0’s dominate the scene of the Internet, creating buzz around your product couldn’t be more easier and more affordable. With free services like YouTube and social networking sites like Facebook and Myspace, there are practically endless amounts of opportunities you can join for free to create buzz for your product. If you can make your product sound catchy and attract buzz that is viral, that is the best free type of traffic you can obtain on the web. Nothing beats viral traffic as once the news is out, it is literally out there on a rampage to be known. Here are just a few ways to create online buzz, just to get you thinking (I recommend sticking to one or two methods at a time and then slowly build your way up the list).

Google Emphasizes on Website Quality Even More
Google SEO has always been an on-going battle for many webmasters, luckily, Google is taking action. For the most part, Google’s major concern are the users doing the searching, where quality and relevance is all that matters to Google – reason why Google’s algorithm was invented, to get rid of spam and rank high quality sites on top. Google’s ideal goal is to serve users the best relevant results and in order to do so, this involves Geo-targeting, looking at web surf behaviors, and much more. In other words, Google is looking at a lot more factors now more than ever to rank a site. There was once a time where getting a simple link from a trusted source was enough to rank universally for any good keyword, nowadays, it is a lot more complex. Google is now taking into consideration bounce rates, search behaviors, time on site before a surfer leaves, and many more factors to rank a certain site. They are really trying to push webmasters to create better quality content that is engaging for users. It has been noted that back when search engine optimization was still very young, there were only around 128 factors in deciding a site’s rankings, nowadays, the tides have changed and we are now looking at above 200. As you may know, Google doesn’t like to reveal much information on how they rank sites, however one thing still stands clear, is that Google wants to push high quality sites up and low quality sites down. If you take into consideration in adding quality content to your website that has some of these engaging components like pictures, videos, and audio and much more, you are looking at the right path. Quality search is the future and in order to stay in the game of SEO, one must adapt.
Here is a video from 2008 with Matt Cutts talking about the future of Google Search and how webmasters should adapt to the new factors being presented in their ranking algorithm.
It seems that Google is now having another eye on web analytics and now not just on links on determining search engine rankings.
Another video from Bruce Clay at PubCon in 2008 regarding what he anticipates about the future of Google rankings. If you don’t know much about Bruce Clay, you can read more about him here.
In essence, we are now looking at a new field of “optimizing” for the search engine Google. Now, it isn’t just looking at building links to rank higher or JUST on-page optimization, there are many other factors as well that determines a site’s rankings. The more Google becomes more sophisticated, the more factors we are going to be looking at as webmasters. Google is really trying to clean up it’s mess on really trying to eliminate low quality sites that just clog up the search engine results and they are willing to look deep down at web analytics in order to push spam.
And what connection does these 2008 interviews regarding Google search have on us today?
If you haven’t noticed, Google has most recently pushed it’s new caffeine update search results in one of Google’s data center. You can bet that they have been testing some of the factors mentioned in the videos and have incorporated some in their algorithm. I wouldn’t even be surprised if they incorporated social buzz from sites like Twitter, Digg, and Mixx, as one of their factors in their algorithm. Google officially plans on slowly pushing the FULL caffeine search results to their live search results after the holidays. This is just another step further into advance search and Google is willing to take webmasters and users all the way.
