That way legitimate sites can focus on those key items as opposed to every rumor that might get them better ranking.</p>tv bracketMon, 16 Jun 2008 20:55:34 -0000http://blog.cre8asite.net/bwelford/2008/05/google-search-quality-lifts-veil/#comment-2008526<p>The only way your ranking is 'hurt' by a competitor with lots of inbound links is that they will rank ahead of your website. There is no other more direct harmful effect AFAIK.</p>Barry WelfordSat, 14 Jun 2008 14:05:07 -0000http://blog.cre8asite.net/bwelford/2008/05/google-search-quality-lifts-veil/#comment-2008527<p>Google seems to make it difficult for new webmasters, lots of details not mentioned.<br>I do believe for new sites a competitor can hurt your Google's rankings by gaining large amount of inbound links, while more establised sites will not feel any effect.<br>The quality in searches is still the best compared to the other search engines and i sense google are catching up on issues and improving results.</p>eibmozSat, 14 Jun 2008 13:52:04 -0000
