Is Google Finally Getting into Search Engine Optimization?
A recent blog post directly from the Google monolith states that they recently performed an analysis and optimization of their SEO across every one of their websites and services. They even have a detailed report of what they considered important with an official SEO report (PDF).
Google states that these optimizations are intended to not only help search engines understand the content of their pages better, but also to improve their users’ experience when visiting their sites. Even though Google.com is the most visited domain in the world, even they understand the power of SEO.
Even the simplest changes in a website structure and contents can lead to great benefits in how search engines see you, and how many people eventually click on your website link in the results pages. If you aren’t sure what SEO actually is, there is a great SEO starter guide available here (also a post from Google).
Of course, if you don’t want to go through all the trouble of analyzing and optimizing your website, Fuseware does SEO as one of its core competencies.

For example, it is completely feasible that a young genius could come up with a superior search algorithm and, frfrfrom his bedroom, threaten Google’s dominant position. The same applies to Facebook. Besides the utility and convenience it brings, lack of privicy

could trigger a mass exodus.
Privacy is a moral issue. For Facebook, it is also a business issue that could simply make or break them.
