SEO Recap – Feb 7, 2008

I stumbled upon a few interesting articles definitely worth reading:

• Link title attribute vs. image alt tags: Which is better?
  Interesting article on ranking impacts of the two probably most known element attributes.
• How to avoid and elude Google’s Sandbox?
  A common problem especially when ranking new pages is the Google sandbox. Sandboxing can happen for example when the page can not be categorized or there are to few inbound and / or authoritative back links.
• Why storing URLs with truncated trailing slashes is an utterly idiocy
  Great summary on “invalid” URLs because of missing trailing slashes and why these URLs can damage page popularity.

That’s all for today…
