Have you tried typing in Casino yet?
I wonder how you become a suggested Casino?
I wouldn’t call it “amazing” or “brilliant” and it is certainly not “innovative” …
It works just like the IE address bar … finishes your thoughts faster than you can enter them.
Not sure I like it .. drives me a little nuts .. I know, I know .. not a very long drive.drives me a little nuts .. I know, I know .. not a very long drive.
LVL, that would be me up there waving the flag at the finish line, in case you were curious.
What’s so amazing about this feature? I think it looks like crap to be honest
It would be nicer if they were to provide links to related/similar terms after the search was completed at the bottom of the page. I don’t think they should be thinking for and/or changing the users minds prematurely.
I hope it fails beta or the very least does NOT become part of the everyday search.
Hi again,
I never really went and checked it out until Ark’s post. Frankly I don’t see a difference?
It’s valuable if you don’t have a good handle on what you are looking for. Like if you knew the word poker but didn’t know what a “poker chip” was. Bad example, but the point is, it shows the most common searches. This is very valuable to webmasters because you can see all sorts of keywords that never occured to you that are not just popular, but the most popular given your first words. For example, type in “online casino bonus” (no quotes). Five things are shown, three are obvious, but the other two? I wouldn’t have guessed those.
A more obvious example is if you type in blackjack. See the common two word searches.
If ever added to the main search it would obviously lead to much more competition for searches shown for common first words… and it would lead to “serp bombing” where bots type in relatively unknown variations that the bomber ranks first for, like say “blackjack now play online”. Real people don’t search for that exact phrase, but if you bomb it to be second under blackjack, people would likely click it.
Even I understood that one C. Nice explanation for the whole thing, from why its good, to why its not gonna be good
I’m surprised somebody at their place didn’t think of the bombing thing.
you’re so right, it would get out of hand quickly, since when the same keyword was target to be bombed by say 4 different bombers, all bombing with different variations,
(I hope I’m getting this right)
then it would basically ruin the whole idea’s best concept.
