"Here is a recap of what happened in the search forums today, through the eyes of the Search Engine Roundtable and other search forums on the web.Search Engine Roundtable Stories:\n\t\tVideo Recap of Weekly Search Buzz :: May 1, 2009\n\t\tIn this week's search recap, I covered several topics on search. I started off with how Google's localized search engines may have some geo targeting issues. Google ran up a $30,000 bill for some new advertiser. Google has a major issue with merging business data on Google Maps. Microsoft stopped faking the search referrals, for now. You can trick AdWords into giving you longer titles with keyword insertion. Google updated their AdSense program policies, this\n Most SEOs Use Interns For Link Building\n\t\tI ran a poll a couple weeks ago asking, do you use interns as link builders? The 120 plus responses are in and most of those who responded said yes, they use interns as link builders. 74 of the 120 responses, or 62%, said they do use interns for link building. While, 45 of the 120 responses, or 38%, said they do not use interns for link building. One said that he is considering it.\nSwine Flu Concern Helping With Google AdSense Revenue?\n\t\tProfiting off of medical concerns, such as with the recent Swine Flu outbreak, is something most people don't think about.

A Google Maps Help thread has one individual claiming that a Yell.com representative claimed that if you don't pay for your Yell.com listing, your Google listing will drop down. Yell.com is a popular UK local search engine. The Yell representative reportedly said, \"of next week, unless you pay for Yell.com, your listing on Google maps will drop down below anyone listed with Yell.com\n\t\tShould Google Go The Rel=Follow Route? Opt In vs. Opt Out\n\t\tThere is a pretty funny thread for anyone who is somewhat familiar with the SEO industry. A thread at Google Webmasters Help has this SEO who goes on a rant about the nofollow and what have happened to links.
