At the end of the day – if we dont like the post – it’s history. There is no appeal. House rules.
Google continues to work to address the threat posed by the real-time search capabilities of services like Twitter and Facebook.
In May, they launched “Search Options” to allow users to refine search results by content type and time (within the past day was the timeliest you could get), but today, they’re launching a “past hour” filter to make its index even fresher.
Along with this key update, Google is rolling out 8 other search options which should be available to everyone at some point today. Those include the ability to search within a specific date range, shopping site filters, a visited pages filter, and an option to see only results from Google’s book, blog, and news search tools.
“Our web search (the well-known search at Google.com that hundreds of millions of people use each day) disregards keyword metatags completely. They simply don’t have any effect in our search ranking at present.” – Google’s Matt Cutts.
Although google hasn’t used or has ignored stated keyword metatags for years that doesn’t mean that they are useless. There are still search engines out there that still utilise them.
