“What Do You Love?” from Google is the website where you can search across all the Google Products in one screen and with one click. Example you want to search latest information about iPhone. All the Google Products will display information for iPhone such as Picasa, books, YouTube, Trends, SketchUp and much more.

“What Do You Love?” is a great site to find numerous information of your search keywords that fit onto one screen. It is exactly the same as your Google search engine homepage but showing different kind of information on the web instead of related websites.

Moreover, you can jump directly to the Google Product homepage and get more insight of your search keywords. It’s just make it easy to find searches accurately without going to several Google Products site.

What do you love?

Google just launched new search interface a few hours ago. What happen to the new search interface? It is awfully similar to Bing search interface. The new Google search interface seems to be a few milliseconds faster compare to existing design with added new features at the left menu. Navigation links at the left-handed menu is responding fast too. The left menu looks like a redundant navigation which is same as top menu.

What’s more amazing is the new powerful image color search features at the left menu. Notice that there is a colors picker at the left-hand menu when you are searching for images. You can now search for any images with that color. Example you want to look for green color images, just click the green color selection and google search will load appropriate green images on the screen. This is something very new to me. Besides that, you can also filter images by Face, Clip art, Photo, or Line drawing.

Now you can search for video from youtube, metacafe, livevideo and other sources. Search by length of the video and date range. The left menu navigation is same as the top but Google make it more noticeable. Before this, I am seldom click on the top menu unless I am really looking for something different.

I think it will take sometime for everyone to adapt to this new design. It is not easy to use but it has more new features added to enrich user experience. Do you like this new design?

Not long ago, I have try to submit my blog to ping services like ping.sg with a hope to increase readership on my blog. Result is YES, I get a couple of traffic once my article is published on the ping.sg. I have anonymous visitor reading my summary content on ping.sg. These few days I have been checking consistently on the indexed pages of limfy.com and found out many pages did not appear in google search engine. The truth is ping.sg URL appear on the first position and it contain summary of my articles.

Normally, when you submit or notify your blog URL to ping, those ping services will come and crawl your blog latest article and then get indexed in search engine. There are many kinds of ping services where some of them are good search engine ping services such as Google.com, Ask.com, Yahoo.com, Bing.com and Technorati.com

The fact that Google Bot indexed ping.sg website in an hour which is faster than my blog limfy.com. All my new articles never shown up. Instead of that, ping.sg pages are shown now. Although it will redirect automatically to my blog, but I do not think it brings much benefit to limfy.com. Having my own indexed pages on google is the best way to make sure visitor reach my site directly and it can get permanent web traffic from search engine.

Today, blogging is not an alone activity anymore, you need to interact with other people. Frequent posting new contents can improve the speed of getting more traffic. If it happens that your keywords are too competitive, you have to try to target other similar targeted keywords to increase your search engine optimization ranking.
