Keep your website Google-friendly: follow the Official Google Webmasters blog

If you’ve looked at the traffic statistics for any given web site nowadays, you’ll see the ridiculously high portion of traffic that comes from Google. The reason being, put simply: Google is the navigation interface to the web.

So I think it behooves most webmasters to keep an eye on what “The Google” itself is recommending for webmasters in terms of making your site nice and Google-friendly. After all, if you speak their language, it’s a lot easier for them to communicate with you.

OK, you get the metaphor.

The Official Google Webmasters Central blog recently posted a list of their top 7 most requested posts (essentially, the most FA FAQ). If you’re running any sort of link-tracking or affiliate program, you might want to pay particular attention to the post about duplicate content.
